BMC’s ReCOVer Long COVID Clinic helps individuals with ongoing symptoms after COVID-19, regardless of how severe the initial illness was. Established early in the COVID-19 pandemic, the clinic unites experts from across the hospital to provide comprehensive, multidisciplinary care for patients still experiencing symptoms more than four weeks after infection. We support patients in navigating their recovery journey, addressing ongoing health concerns, and improving their well-being and quality of life through specialized, patient-centered care.
