Learn how a prep book organises symptoms, medications and questions so readers arrive at appointments ready.
A prep book gives people a place to record symptoms, medications and questions beforehand. Designing one, and explaining the design to others, means slides you may not have time to build. This deck lays the components and sample pages out for you.

This is a ready-to-use, editable PowerPoint deck of 52 slides on creating a symptom-to-doctor visit prep book for Amazon KDP. It covers core components, three sample spreads, design and file formats, a publishing checklist, pricing and bonus templates. It suits journal creators, health writers and patient-education teams.
The deck defines a prep book as a structured journal that helps users record, organise and present their symptoms and health information. It identifies who might use one, from people with ongoing conditions to those with new symptoms and caregivers, and sets the product's core promise: clearer conversations with a health professional.
Chapter 2 is the anatomy chapter. Core components include a symptom log (onset, duration, a 1 to 10 intensity scale, triggers, relieving factors), a medical history snapshot and a current medications and supplements section. Add-ons include doctor's questions, a treatment plan tracker and a terms glossary. Three sample spreads are shown: a Symptom Tracker, a Medication Log and Questions for My Doctor.
Next come design principles, colour and branding, file formats and cover design, then a pre-publishing workflow, upload fields, price tiers and marketing. Chapter 5 introduces bundles, editable template extras and royalty structures. A case study and a four-step plan finish the deck.

Use the three sample spreads to discuss which fields help people prepare, and which might overwhelm.
Compare your own symptom log against the field list on slide 9 and tighten the layout using the design principles.
Work through the anatomy chapter, then the four-step plan, and finish with a page list for your book.
