Navigating the uncharted waters of long COVID in children, Elham Raker shares a deeply personal journey of advocating for her daughter's health while questioning the medical system's approach to chronic illness. This episode uncovers the challenges of limited resources, fragmented care, and the emotional toll on families. Together, we explore what it truly means to balance the principle of "do no harm" with the urgent need to act.

Elham Raker is a pediatrician.

She discusses the KevinMD article, "Doctors must rethink 'do no harm' to help children with long COVID."
