Despite his extensive medical training, he struggled to diagnose a family member's illness, which included symptoms such as low-grade fever, chills, fatigue, arthritis, and a rash. Dr. Philips tested for various conditions, including viral hepatitis, COVID-19, influenza, dengue, and Epstein-Barr Virus, but all results were negative.
