Long Covid, MD

To generalize, navigating long COVID is a huge challenge. It is also especially difficult to find reliable, useful, practical resources online. This podcast offers patient stories, interviews with medical professionals, and offers some of the most important advice that patients need to hear— for instance, how to make the most out of health appointments in the context of our healthcare system, and navigating mis/disinformation online. This podcast would be one of my top recommendations to someone trying to understand long COVID as a disease, what it’s like to experience it, and how to get through it without losing your way.

So happy to have randomly found this podcast, prior to this I felt like I was the only medical provider I knew with Long Covid. This podcast is my go to for listening when I am having a flare up and need a comfortable-sounding yet knowledgeable voice going through it with me.

Thank you Dr. Khan for using some of your precious and limited energy on this podcast. It’s really helpful to hear a doctor’s perspective in the midst of so much denial and ignorance and just confusing information.

A refreshing and galvanizing multi-topic approach to Long Covid for those new to chronic illness. Dr. Zeest’s podcast touches on how to arrange your life to accommodate LC and communicate with healthcare workers; how to follow government-sponsored trials and funding programs; and how to approach advocacy while preserving your equanimity. The accent is on recovery.
