Doctor, Doctor, I'm a stand-up comedian!

From the NHS to the circuit, stand-up doctors Michael Akadiri, Benji Waterhouse and Kwame Asante speak to Kiri about how they balance two demanding professions: medicine and comedy.

From the circuit, to the NHS, Kiri Pritchard-McLean chats to three people balancing comedy with medicine. What does it take to excel in both worlds? Michael Akadiri is a doctor and trainee surgeon, Benji Waterhouse is a consultant psychiatrist, and Kwame Asante is an A&E doctor. They each tell Kiri how they balance these two demanding professions.
