About Up and About
-
Up and About is a podcast for people preparing for surgery, recovering at home, and helping someone they love through it.
Hosted by Ranessa Santos, each episode features honest conversations with patients, loved ones, surgeons, therapists, nurses, and other healthcare professionals about what recovery really looks like beyond the hospital walls.
Together, we explore the surprises, setbacks, small wins, and lessons people wish they’d known sooner. From preparing for surgery and navigating recovery at home to getting back to the activities, relationships, and moments that make life meaningful, these stories offer practical wisdom, reassurance, and perspective for the road ahead.
Because recovery isn’t just about walking again.
It’s about getting back to the life you love.
