Description
Prep Like a Pro, Heal Like a Champ
There’s something we don’t say enough in healthcare: Prepared patients heal better.
This guidebook was born from that truth, and from the countless moments shared between patients, their families, and medical professionals facing the unknown with courage.
Written by a practicing doctor and patient advocate, My Ultimate Surgery Journal is a practical, compassionate companion designed to empower patients through every step of the surgical journey, from diagnosis to recovery.
Why it matters:
Surgery often comes with anxiety, unanswered questions, and uncertainty. But studies show that patients who are engaged in their care recover faster and feel more in control of their healing process.
Inside this journal, you’ll find:
✔️ Guided questions to ask your doctor, so you feel confident, not confused
✔️ Reflective prompts for emotional and mental preparation
✔️ Dedicated pages for caregivers, care team notes, and support planning
✔️ A recovery section for journaling progress, pain management, and gratitude
Whether you’re a patient, a loved one, a nurse, or a doctor, this is more than a notebook, it’s a roadmap for healing with intention.
This journal is already helping redefine the surgical experience across hospitals and homes, because healing should never be passive.

This book is a simplified guide that addresses patients’ concerns and fears as they prepare to undergo surgery and highlights how the patient’s understanding of what the issue is makes the recovery process smooth.
The section on the physician’s role in alleviating a patient’s level of anxiety through an explanation of the disease and proposed intervention helps the patient in arriving at informed consent, and prevents anaesthetic complications, post-operative delirium, and psychosis.
The step-by-step guide and leading questions will help you as the patient in this journey and you, the physician, in helping to guide your patient along. Remember, informed consent is everything and this simplified guide carries the answer.
Dr. Fridah’s commitment in understanding her patients and what they go through has contributed to this write up which I am sure is the right direction in this era of patient advocacy.

Having experienced surgery myself, I know how overwhelming it can be, especially in a culture where patients rarely get the time to ask questions. This guidebook is an invaluable resource for navigating the process; it helps you understand your condition, explore treatment options, and plan financially. It also makes tracking your progress easier and ensures you’re well-prepared for every doctor’s appointment. I highly recommend it!

Like many caregivers, I felt overwhelmed by the complexity of the procedure. This guide provided clarity and realistic expectations, empowering me to be a more effective advocate and source of comfort. It’s an essential resource for anyone facing a similar journey.
