Anyone watching? I find this programme so interesting, but it makes me nervous too. Amazing what can be done in modern medicine now. These surgeons are so talented and so brave.

Totally agree Grannyrebel7 I watch all these programmes as I have a health service back ground including working in theatres.
The efforts that are made these days thanks to modern technology etc. are truly amazing - I watched one episode a while age where about six or seven different specialists were involved as the patient had multi-problems.
I know there are faults in our NHS and sadly it is badly abused by some people but I honestly can say that I believe we are so lucky.
Keep watching them - they may seem frightening but you will see the amazing results in so many cases.

The surgeons are amazing. Its incredible to see what they do.

But for me, this programme is spoiled by the narrator.
