This is a great podcast from people who are interested in understanding more about health care issues.
No nonsense, easy to understand, sensible advice. I love that Dr Lynette is both a GP and a PT and brings the experience of both to her podcast and also her instagram posts
Love these podcasts, quick and informative no nonsense. The underactive thyroid one was especially helpful thank you, Dr Lynette
