About this ebook

Written by the ultimate insider--a nurse with over twenty-five years of experience--this book provides the latest information on forty-four surgical procedures. In addition, the candid discussions of what to expect after surgery include positive and negative statements from patients who've undergone each procedure. This guidebook also includes simple explanations of medical tests, samples of common medical forms, and a glossary of medical terms.

About the author

Sammie Justesen R. N. has spent 30-plus years in the medical field, including intensive care, emergency room, surgery, hospice, and home care. Alarmed by the number of post-operative patients coming home with little preparation, she wrote A Smart Patient?s Guide to Surgery as a plain-English guide to place patients firmly in the driver?s seat.
