Long COVID Awareness Month: A Time to Reflect and Support As we mark Long COVID Awareness Month this March, we take a moment to reflect on the challenges faced by individuals living with the long-term effects of COVID-19, now 5 years since the pandemic began. On March 15th, International Long COVID Day, a day dedicated to raising awareness and amplifying the voices of those impacted by this ongoing condition, we acknowledge the ongoing journey of recovery.

At Dr. Finlay’s Private Practice, we are proud to be the leading practice in the UK specialising in Long COVID treatment. Our team of experienced professionals is committed to providing comprehensive, personalised care for individuals facing the challenges of Long COVID. We are also partnering with Attomarker, a pioneering, award-winning UK diagnostics company that offers valuable insights into a patient’s immune response to the virus. Through their cutting-edge testing, we can better understand each patient’s unique needs, allowing our doctors to create tailored treatment plans designed to target the specific challenges that come with Long COVID.

Meet Tilly – A Brave Young Woman Sharing Her Long Covid Story On February 28, BBC Midlands Today visited Dr Finlay’s Birmingham surgery to film an important segment on Long Covid in young people. The feature includes Dr Ben speaking with Tilly Galloway, an inspiring 18-year-old from Tamworth, and her mother, Nicola Booton. Tilly’s life changed dramatically after catching Covid in March 2020. By 2022, she was diagnosed with Long Covid, and the ongoing symptoms made it impossible for her to continue with traditional schooling. She had to leave school in Year 10, losing not only her education but also many friendships along the way. Despite these challenges, Tilly is determined to keep moving forward. Tilly has been a patient of Dr Finlay’s Private Practice since March 2023, and her story sheds light on the ongoing impact of Long Covid on young people. 📺 Dr Ben’s interview will air on BBC One throughout the week of March 24, marking the 5th anniversary of the first UK Covid lockdown. #LongCovidAwareness #DrFinlays #BBCMidlandsToday #TillysStory #CovidRecovery #ChronicIllnessAwareness #LongCOVIDRecovery #DrFinlays #LongCOVIDRecovery #DrFinlays

When the relentless pressure of meeting targets on the Sales Desk rise too high, for some team members it can spell danger, lead to burnout or even suicide in some cases. That’s the alarming view – and experience – of Group Sales Director James Mckeever , who is the featured guest this Saturday on our podcast ‘Health Versus Wealth With Dr Ben’. James, 45, leads a team of 28 people at Sovereign Business Solutions Group Limited, a leading UK office supplies company. He loves his job, but the demands of it have in the past meant he’s worked extremely long hours, and he was “living to work” rather than the other way around. Previously in his career, two colleagues very tragically took their own life, so this topic is close to his heart as he feels it's very important for employers to give their staff the proper support they need and deserve. James is proud to be a Non-Executive Director of The Kaleidoscope Plus Group , a registered charity that promotes and supports positive health and wellbeing in the Midlands. This episode of the podcast, hosted by Dr Ben Sinclair, will be broadcast on Solihull Radio, and will be available later on podcast platforms. #SolihullRadio #WorkLifeBalance #MentalHealthAwareness #CharitySupport #CareerJourney #BurnoutPrevention
