Rubbed Up the Wrong Way by Grace Dorey

Rubbed Up the Wrong Way by Grace Dorey

Grace Dorey's story takes us from her first day as a trembling sixteen-year-old physiotherapy trainee in 1956, to the day she received her MBE for her physiotherapy research. Highlighting the trials and tribulations of a career in physiotherapy and the many interesting and poignant things that can happen along the way - especially when rubbing patients up the wrong way - this memoir also shows how much the NHS has changed, and how the practice of physiotherapy has evolved since the 1950s. Told with humour and compassion, Grace shows us what really goes on behind the hospital curtains, in one of the first medical memoirs to be written by a distinguished physiotherapist.

Grace Dorey trained at the London Hospital (now the Royal London Hospital) in 1956 and has had a long and distinguished career in physiotherapy, including private and commercial practice and time spent on Harley Street. She received her MSC after studying the male pelvic floor and followed that with a PH.D in the pelvic floor of men with erectile dysfunction. Her research in this area has resulted in her being asked to lecture on the topic across the world, and an MBE.
