Experiencing Long COVID as a Physician and a Patient

Dr. Ludwig Lin and Dr. Ronald George Season 1 Episode 7

Dr. Zeest Khan is a Stanford-trained cardiac anesthesiologist. Very early in 2020, she fell ill with COVID, but the worse was to come - she developed “Long COVID”. To be a physician used to crises, there can’t be a scenario worse than feeling disempowered and unable. To add to that, Dr. Khan encountered skepticism from the healthcare system she sought for care and treatment. As an articulate and driven healthcare professional, Dr. Khan’s personal account of her experience as a Long COVID survivor is a powerful testimonial.
