Phil Hammond is a GP, writer, broadcaster and possibly the only comedian to appear at a public inquiry. He is Private Eye’s medical correspondent (MD). He has appeared on Have I Got News For You (seven times), The News Quiz, The Now Show and is the author of three best-selling books: Medicine Balls (an NHS satire), Trust Me I’m Still a Doctor (20 years of whistle-blowing in Private Eye) and his latest book (a pleasure manual entitled Sex, Sleep or Scrabble? based on his experiences of working in sexual health).

 

He became a GP in 1991 but first came into the public spotlight writing a column for The Independent and as half of Struck Off and Die, with Tony Gardner. They had five sell-out shows at the Edinburgh Fringe, were twice selected for the Perrier Pick of the Fringe and won Writers’ Guild and silver Sony Awards when the show transformed into a Radio 4 series.

 

He is currently touring his own show Dr Phil's Rude Health Show.
