Customer Reviews
From the frontlines
This Podcast is very timely. Dr. Malhotra has a very lucid style of presenting relevant information without the hyperbole and political cross-winds to make the plethora of data on Covid-19 accessible to the lay person. Being an Oncologist himself adds a significant amount of credibility to what he says in his Podcast as opposed to the overnight Internet experts and Opinion section gurus on this subject. I find listening to this Podcast a very high return on an average of 15 minutes spent weekly.
Dr. Malhotra recaps the previous week’s topics and updates us on the latest.
I highly recommend this to anyone who is interested in the facts sans the drama. Please consider taking your facts from experts like him and not opinion kinds and career commentators on media, which is no longer credible on either side of the political spectrum.
