Summary
When Dr Binita Kane — a Consultant Respiratory Physician and one of the first clinicians to recognise Long Covid — watched her own daughter’s life be derailed by the condition, it changed everything she thought she knew about medicine. In this episode, Dr Kane shares how her daughter’s illness forced her to unlearn parts of her medical training and find new answers beyond conventional care. That deeply personal journey now shapes how she treats thousands of patients at The Long Covid Clinic. We explore why rest, pacing, and energy management are central to recovery, why individualised and interdisciplinary care matters, and how tools like Visible help patients and clinicians make better decisions together.
