Overview
One in four Americans suffer from mental illness, yet 75% receive no treatment at all - discover why our healthcare system is failing millions and learn how we can fix it.
In this groundbreaking examination of America's mental health crisis, internationally recognized physician Dr. Robert C. Smith exposes the devastating gap between physical and mental health treatment. Drawing on decades of clinical experience and evidence-based research, he reveals how the historical mind-body split in medicine has created a two-tier system of care with catastrophic consequences.
Key revelations include:
- Why medical schools fail to properly train physicians in mental health care
- How untreated mental illness costs society hundreds of billions in preventable healthcare expenses
- The hidden toll on families and communities when depression, anxiety, and substance abuse go untreated
- A practical roadmap for reform that puts mental health care on equal footing with physical medicine
Written with both scientific rigor and compassionate insight, this urgent call to action provides policymakers, healthcare leaders, and concerned citizens with a clear path forward. Dr. Smith, recipient of the George Engel Award and Career Teaching Achievement Award, brings unparalleled expertise to this critical examination of how we can transform mental healthcare in America.
