  • I really enjoy this podcast !

    Dr Lynette Speaks in a way that you just stop what you’re doing and you listen , and you learn .

    You don’t have to Google words to find out what they mean nor do you have to listen to umms and errs and ‘ like ‘ being said every few words like so many presenters seem to do which have me gone !

    No nonsense , clear podcast where a wide range of topics are discussed .

    Medical , personal , fitness , nutrition and more .

    Love it and Thank you .

  • My favourite podcast

    Love this podcast. Seems to cut through the nonsense, it’s down to earth, very relevant to me, pitched at a level that is perfect for me. I like the fact that the two GPs have different viewpoints and opinions and discuss topics frankly, without being too “careful” what they say. I hope they don’t suddenly start selling supplements in the future!
