Practicing NHS GP and media medic, Dr Zoe Williams will host a brand-new podcast, The Doctor Will Hear You Now.
The 10-episode series is being launched in partnership with BUPA and will see Dr Zoe joined by celebrity guests who have been impacted by a health condition.
They will delve into the condition, sharing real, human experiences and stories. In the second half of the episode the pair will be joined by a specialist clinician from Bupa with expert knowledge on the episode’s topic.
With Bupa, Dr Zoe has selected 10 health conditions, one per episode, to offer listeners a varied and insightful mix of personal experience and informative detail from a medical professional.
These conditions include depression & mental health, menopause, heart disease & cardiac arrest, Crohn’s Disease, endometriosis, bowel cancer, neurodiversity, gut health, and dementia.
Zoe is currently one of the resident GPs on ITV’s This Morning in addition to presenting for the BBC’s The One Show, Horizon and Trust Me I’m a Doctor. She says: “I’m delighted to be launching my first podcast, The Doctor Will Hear You Now.
“This has been such a huge passion project for me, so bringing it to life, ready for everyone to wrap their ears around is so exciting.
“Through discussing these various health topics with my guests, who’ve kindly shared their own real life experiences, I hope listeners will deepen their understanding and perhaps find some common comfort in the stories and conversations.
“Thanks to Bupa and their talented team of clinicians, too, who add another vital layer to this podcast, answering questions with professional insight and expertise.”
Richard Glassborow, Consumer Director at Bupa UK, added: “We’re delighted to be working with Dr Zoe Williams on her podcast, we understand the importance of talking about our health and breaking down taboo topics so that people feel comfortable to open up about what they may be experiencing and seek help.
“We’ve worked with Zoe for the last two years for our Inside Health events where we take an in depth look at a key health issue and we’re very pleased that she’s launching her podcast alongside us, allowing our experts to share their knowledge on some of the biggest health issues.”
The Doctor Will Hear You Now launches today, 24 May, with new episodes released every Wednesday on all podcast platforms.
