For the past twenty years, I have been obsessed with health—my own, my patients’, my children’s, and health in general. Throughout my career, I have worn many hats in medicine, helping countless individuals, relieving suffering, and providing effective treatment. Yet, I find myself questioning why so many patients don’t truly get better despite my best efforts. Why is there so much suffering? And how can I help fix a healthcare system that is often broken, ineffective, and unfair?

Now, I am choosing to redesign how I practice medicine and redefine what patients can expect from their psychiatrist. For too long, psychiatry has focused on symptom management and functional impairments while neglecting quality of life and the burdens of severe side effects. I have also witnessed the stark differences in care between those who have resources and those who do not. My mission is to eliminate that disparity in a scalable, fair, and effective way—leveraging technology, innovation, and common sense to transform mental healthcare.
