While most recover from COVID-19, approximately 10-30% of patients experience lingering health issues long after the virus has subsided.

Are you still experiencing symptoms weeks after your initial recovery?

You might be dealing with Long-COVID Syndrome, also known as “long-hauler COVID,” “post-COVID,” or “chronic COVID.”

The Kaplan Center is here to help you regain your health and well-being.

Learn more about our Long-COVID recovery services to help you regain your strength, energy, and vitality.

“I can honestly say that switching my post-COVID care to Kaplan saved my life. When I found them I was in such a dark place. My health and mental health was shattered. My provider is not only putting me back together, but she has also enlightened me in ways that I never experienced in the medical field. I can’t think of any reason to see another provider. After this experience, I don’t think I can ever return to a non-integrative practice for important and critical medical intervention.”

Long-COVID: A Range of Disruptive Symptoms

Long-COVID Syndrome can lead to a wide range of physical and emotional health issues, including chronic fatigue, chronic pain, headaches, digestive problems, feelings of anxiety, depression, and nerve pain. These symptoms may be new or a worsening of a pre-existing condition. Long-COVID affects individuals of all ages, from the very young to the very old, without preference. This is leaving a lot of people feeling hopeless, frustrated, and searching for answers. But you are not alone. 

What we are seeing with Long-COVID is that it looks a great deal like other chronic illnesses that start with an infection; conditions such as ME/CFS (Myalgia Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome), Post-Lyme Disease Syndrome, Fibromyalgia, POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome), neuropsychiatric syndromes, problems with depression, problems with anxiety disorders, and problems with chronic headaches.

Similarly, Long-COVID Syndrome is a multi-system condition that needs an integrative/multidisciplinary approach to address its wide-ranging symptoms. Long-COVID complications can affect several of your body systems, including the lungs, heart, gastrointestinal tract, nervous system, musculoskeletal system, and psychological systems.

At The Kaplan Center, treating chronic illness is our specialty. We have been treating chronic issues for decades and we are very good at it. We have decades of experience identifying conditions that have gone years without a diagnosis. We understand these conditions very differently – and better – than most physicians do, giving us an edge in getting you the best possible outcome.

Common Symptoms of Long-COVID Syndrome

With over 200 reported symptoms, the most commonly reported symptoms can include any one or combination of the following:

  • Difficulty breathing or shortness of breath

Cutting Edge Research and New Diagnostic Testing

Our program includes the lab services of Dr. Bruce Patterson, former Head of Virology at Stanford University and now head of IncellDx, who has developed a unique method to identify “long haulers.”

Dr. Patterson has identified specific biomarkers‑tests within the blood that help us understand what part of the immune system has been damaged in Long-COVID Syndrome. Dr. Patterson’s research provides critical insight into how to predict, identify, and treat patients who are affected by Long-COVID Syndrome. More specifically, he believes he’s identified one specific type of white cell that becomes damaged by the SARS-CoV-2 virus.

In May 2024, Dr. Patterson, along with Dr. Kaplan and faculty from several prestigious organizations contributed to a study examining two known drugs as potential treatments for long COVID, titled “Case Series: Maraviroc and Pravastatin as a Therapeutic Option to Treat Long COVID/Post-acute Sequelae of COVID (PASC).” The study explores the efficacy of maraviroc, a chemokine receptor antagonist originally developed for HIV, and pravastatin, a statin used to lower cholesterol, as hopeful treatments for Post-Acute Sequelae of COVID, also known as long COVID.

Health Investment

“What an amazing organization. After seeing a number of other doctors, I am FINALLY getting help with my long-COVID AND with some other issues I didn’t even know I had (like mold toxins!). Every staff person I’ve worked with at Kaplan has been fantastic. They are extremely competent, nice, and very caring.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Our treatments include prescription medications, nutritional supplements, IV therapy, physical therapy, acupuncture, psychotherapy, EMDR, and guided meditation.

Research published in The Journal of the American Medical Association estimates 10-30% of COVID-19 patients become long haulers.

One common theory is that there is viral persistence, inactivated viral fragments, or reactivation of a latent virus. While research is still ongoing to make any conclusive statements, we do believe that the etiology is an immune state caused by pro-inflammatory cytokines.

If you would like to learn more about our Long-COVID Recovery Program, please give us a call at 703-532-6302.

Improvement timelines vary; some patients see changes within weeks, while others may take months. Our personalized treatment plans are designed to optimize recovery.

We use an integrative/multidisciplinary approach, incorporating the latest research and diagnostic methods to address the complex, multi-system nature of Long-COVID.

Please bring any previous medical records related to your COVID-19 diagnosis and ongoing symptoms, as well as a list of current medications and supplements.

We use follow-up consultations, symptom tracking, and repeat diagnostic tests to monitor progress and adjust treatments as needed.

Yes, we often recommend dietary adjustments, exercise routines, and stress management techniques as part of a comprehensive treatment plan.

The first 90-minute appointment is $475, and $460 for Cytokine testing. Follow-up visits and other specific tests may have additional fees.

We collaborate with research institutions and may have opportunities for patients to join clinical trials or studies. Discuss this with your provider during your visit.

Using IncellDx’s patented kit, we are measuring immune markers and cytokines. Cytokines are immunoregulatory proteins made by immune cells to communicate, signal and coordinate immune responses. Cytokines are produced by a broad range of cells including T-cells, B-cells, macrophages, and endothelial cells and play an important role in the regulation of the immune system. However, in certain conditions and pathologies, elevated cytokines can contribute to hyperinflammatory states, which we believe is the underlying cause behind chronic COVID-19.

Reimbursement varies depending on your insurance coverage. Depending on treatment, you will be provided with relevant CPT codes to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement consideration.

If only there was a single pill that could resolve your condition.

The reality, however, is that the causes of illness and pain are multidimensional, and effective treatment requires a multidimensional approach. 

*A $200 deposit is required when booking your appointment.

**Fee-For-Service (FFS) healthcare outside of any insurance participation. Fees may be eligible for insurance reimbursement.
