About Peter Sykes

I am a retired surgeon whose reflections on a long and rewarding career in the NHS have resulted in the publication of a number of light-hearted novels and short stories. Details can be found by searching for Peter Sykes on Amazon Books. My writing continues now in the form of a blog available at www.medicaltales.org When not writing, I pass my time enjoying the 3 G’s — Golf, Gardening, Grandchildren, oh and also, if I’m being honest, Gin and Grumbling that ‘things ain’t what they used to be’.

My Talks... My talks revolve around the lighter side of hospital life; tales about Interesting patients, amusing anecdotes and humorous events that I have witnessed over the years. My aim is to be interesting, entertaining and educational. Fee: I do not charge a fee or expenses. Instead I expect a donation to The East Cheshire Hospice, the amount varying with the size of the audience. I suggest something of the order of £3 pp with a minimum donation of £100
