Recently, Longstreet Clinic primary care physicians took to radio airwaves to discuss two illnesses that are dominating news cycles – flu and the Chinese coronavirus.
Dr. Erum Farooqi, an internist at Longstreet Clinic in Gainesville, spoke with Bill Maine on “The Morning Show” on WDUN A.M. 550/102.9 F.M. about how to prevent influenza (wash those hands!) as well as other flu-related topics.

On Jan. 25, 2020, Dr. Andrew Reisman, a family physician with Longstreet Clinic in Oakwood and current president of the Medical Association of Georgia, was a guest on 95.5 WSB’s “Belinda Skelton’s Atlanta Living” where he spent time discussing the dangers of the flu as well as misinformation surrounding the flu and flu vaccine.
