  • Thank you Dr Khan

    As a person living with Long Covid since 2021, there are usually more questions than answers. Dr Khan’s podcast is full of factual data that is truly helpful. I come from a science background and there is a lot of misinformation out there. Thank you Dr Khan for pulling all the information together. If you have LC or know someone who does, this podcast is definitely worth your time.

  • Smart, encouraging, helpful

    Dr Kahn brings new, useful and interesting information on dealing with long covid. She understands what it’s like to live with this. So she’s realistic about what dose and doesn’t help, and what some of the struggles are that people without the disease just don’t understand. I’m really glad I found this podcast.
