The Future of the Psychiatrist
We will need to handle the most challenging cases: the most psychiatrically complex, medically complex, and treatment-resistant. We must preserve our skill, unique among physicians, in psychotherapeutic approaches, even as we manage psychiatric illness. We must also adapt and become more tech-savvy, as digital data, mobile and computer-based treatments, electronic medical records, and AI algorithms take on increasing prominence in our field.
