About this episode

If you are interested in learning about the future of delivering mental health services in Lebanon and the MENA region, please listen and watch our latest episode of The Lebanese Physicians' Podcast with Dr. MohammadAli Jardali and Dr. Sara Catherine Mourani. A large portion of the Lebanese population has difficulty accessing mental health services due to financial, geographic, and cultural reasons. There is a lack of AI and telehealth based platforms in Lebanon, and in a lot of cases, platforms developed in the west are being used in the region (which does not take into account the cultural diversity of the different countries). Dr. Mourani is developing Artificial Intelligence based platforms to deliver mental health care services in Lebanon and beyond trying to reach all segments of the Lebanese population.

You can listen to the audio version of the podcast on Apple, Spotify, Anghami, and iHeartRadio.
