Save The Kids Ep. 156: Digital wellness from a pediatrician with Dr Michael Rich

The Save the Kids Podcast

It is always a pleasure whenever we can get an expert from the medical community to talk about screens, social media, and the dangers they can pose to kids. It’s also nice when they can tell us some solutions. Michael Rich, MD, MPH is an associate professor of pediatrics at Harvard Medical School and practices adolescent medicine at Boston Children’s Hospital. Pediatrician, child health researcher, father, and filmmaker, Dr. Rich is the founder and director of the Digital Wellness Lab and the first evidence-based medical program addressing physical, mental, and social health issues associated with digital technology use, the Clinic for Interactive Media and Internet Disorders (CIMAID). As the Mediatrician, Dr. Rich offers research-based, actionable, and practical answers to parents’, educators’, and clinicians’ questions about children’s and adolescents’ media use and the positive and negative implications for their health and development.
