You’re not alone.
You’re not imagining it. And you are not stuck.
Dr. Groysman and community members are here to guide you.
Meet Dr. Groysman
One of the first doctors in the U.S. to take Long COVID seriously. Dr. Robert Groysman started treating Long COVID in 2020, before the condition had a name and while most of the medical world was still calling it anxiety. Since then he has helped patients from across the country and overseas work through the invisible symptoms, the emotional toll, and the frustration of being dismissed.
Recovery is possible
As a double board-certified physician in interventional pain medicine and anesthesiology, Dr. Groysman brings both advanced medical expertise and deep empathy to his work.
His approach goes beyond symptom management. He works backward from each symptom to the mechanism driving it, because the same symptom can come from more than one. Fatigue alone can trace to dysautonomia, mitochondria, or hormones. There are six root causes he looks for:
- Dysautonomia. The autonomic system misfires. That is what sits behind a racing heart when you stand, the temperature swings, and sleep that never quite restores.
- Mitochondrial dysfunction. Energy production fails at the cellular level, which is why rest does not touch this kind of exhaustion.
- Endothelial damage. Blood vessels stop delivering oxygen reliably to the tissue asking for it.
- Gut dysbiosis. A disrupted microbiome that keeps inflammation running and drags on digestion, mood, and food tolerance.
- MCAS, or mast cell activation. Immune cells fire at the wrong targets. New food reactions, flushing, and symptoms that move around the body.
- Hormone imbalance. Thyroid, cortisol, and sex hormones knocked off their rhythm.
Dr. Groysman has authored multiple Long COVID handbooks, spoken at national conferences, and pioneered innovative treatments like the Stellate Ganglion Block (SGB) and Epipharyngeal Abrasive Therapy (EAT). He also educates patients on at-home vagus nerve stimulation, so they have something to work with between appointments.
Dr. Groysman created The Long COVID Family to offer more than medical treatment. This is a place for support, education, and steady progress. In this community, you’ll find:
- The protocol library, written by Dr. Groysman, mechanism by mechanism
- Every volume of the Long COVID Handbook series
- Your Long COVID Fingerprint, a guided walkthrough that maps which of the six mechanisms best match your symptom pattern
- Dr. Groysman in the community himself, replying when his clinic schedule allows
- Members who have been where you are
