Solving Our Mental Health Care Crisis: The Urgent Need for Reform with Dr. Robert Smith

Mental Health in Medicine: The Urgent Need for Reform with Dr. Robert Smith

The healthcare system is failing when it comes to addressing mental health. With nearly 100 million people experiencing a major mental disorder in their lifetime, why are our primary care physicians untrained to handle issues like depression, anxiety, and substance abuse? In this eye-opening episode, Dr. Robert Smith—seasoned physician, distinguished professor of medicine, and thought leader—reveals the critical flaws in medical education and the urgent need for reform.

Dr. Smith, author of Has Medicine Lost its Mind?, explains how the current system compartmentalizes physical and mental health, leaving millions without the integrated care they truly need. He shares his powerful vision for a future where doctors are equipped to treat the whole person—not just symptoms—and invites us all to be part of the solution.
