Just the Tonic

Admin

Leicester Mercury Comedian of the Year finalist 2016 and Paramount Funniest Student finalist Ed Patrick is both comedian and junior doctor. He makes his hotly anticipated Edinburgh Festival Fringe debut this year which follows his first-hand experiences, challenges and occasional blind panic working for the much loved but troubled NHS. 'If I were him I'd quit medicine and do stand-up' (Bruce Dessau). 'Masterful, playfully provocative writing' (Chortle.co.uk).
