Television presenter and passionate womenâs health advocate Cherry Healey, and beloved working GP and TV personality Dr Amir Khan are teaming up to launch a new health podcast, No Appointment Necessary, produced by Viral Tribe.
With over 80% of women saying they donât feel heard at the doctors and with appointments harder to get than ever, Dr Amir and Cherry will open their doors each week for listeners to join their catch up for the âweekly check-inâ. Together they will discuss health and wellbeing topics that are impacting everyone from weight-loss jabs, dementia risk reduction, alcohol and menopause, even sex and libido - nothing is off-limits or too taboo.
As a passionate patient advocate, Cherry will also candidly chat with GP Dr Amir for the âchat GPâ, asking those burning questions submitted by listeners from, âShould I be worried about this lump?â to âHow can I avoid ingrown hairs... âdown thereâ?!â - providing a weekly dose of no-nonsense, trusted health advice as the pair take health seriously without taking themselves too seriously.
Busting the myths, avoiding late-night internet searches and cutting through the confusion when it comes to wellbeing, this new podcast empowers listeners to take charge and understand their health from head to toe in weekly catch-up with two friends.
Cherry said: âIâve been wanting to create a podcast focusing on womenâs health for a long time, but itâs just never felt quite right - and then an opportunity came up to work with Dr Amir, and it felt like the project Iâve been waiting for.
âThis is the kind of podcast you might forward to a friend whoâs struggling with a certain issue, especially if itâs something really awkward to talk about! No topic is off the table, itâs a place to come for a fantastic source of medical information and a few laughs along the way.â
Dr Amir said: âNo Appointment Necessary is all about making health and wellbeing conversations feel like theyâre happening with your best friends. Cherry and I wanted to create a space where nothing is too embarrassing, too awkward, or too âmedicalâ to talk about. Weâll be laughing, sharing stories, and bringing the science to life in a way that feels warm, accessible and, most of all, fun!
âFrom breaking taboos to busting myths, we want listeners to feel reassured, informed and empowered about their own health. You donât need a waiting room, you donât need a GP referral â just grab a cuppa, join your BFFs, and get the kind of honest, straight-talking advice you wish you always had on speed dial.â
No Appointment Necessary is available from Tuesday, 7th October on all major podcast platforms and YouTube with new episodes every Tuesday.
