Host: Prathima Setty, MD
According to the Anxiety and Depression Society of America, major depressive disorder (MDD) is the leading cause of disability in the US for people ages 15-44. Primary care physicians see this problem every day, yet many struggle with recognizing warning signs, diagnosing, and treating the disorder. Joining host Dr. Prathima Setty to address this issue with key clinical considerations and approaches for patients with MDD is Dr. Gina Perez, former Director of Medical Student Education for the Department of Psychiatry and Assistant Dean of Student Affairs at the University of Maryland School of Medicine. Dr. Perez currently serves on the Behavioral Health faculty of the Mid-Hudson family practice residency program in New York.
