If You Faint, Fall Backwards! Medicine: Warts and All

If You Faint, Fall Backwards, combines eccentricity, humour, larger than life characters and a taste of life as it used to be Australia in the sixties and seventies.
These stories follow Frank's progress through medical school in Melbourne and Tasmania where he trained as a resident at the LGH and then became a general practitioner in Launceston's northern suburbs.
Heart warming, funny and sometimes wrenching, the spectrum of one doctor's early experiences is here, told in an open and engaging way that is sure to make you feel like he is sitting you down and telling you a great yarn.
