Be Your Best Health Advocate: A Journal Empowering Patients to Survive Healthcare Another Day

You might've battled pain, overcome disease...but can you survive for-profit healthcare?Try squeezing compassion from a health practitioner swamped with caseloads of patients, tedious administrative tasks, and only 24 hours each day to attend to them all-and leave with enough juice to quench your parched thirst for a minute on a sweltering afternoon. Rain or shine, the person who likely advocates most for your health is YOU. Given the pill-happy physicians who love to prescribe-and overprescribe-and feisty surgeons who insist no medical intervention is more transformative than risky elective surgery costing an arm and a leg, patients should ensure they receive treatments that are truly beneficial.A pro-patient resource, like this slightly cheeky but wholly entertaining guided journal, takes the gravitas out of managing health.Do not take this journal lightly-take it VERY lightly. In doing so, you risk only catching extra clarity on the quality of your healthcare. Contagion at its finest!
