When is it appropriate and when is it misleading to say that you are a doctor? Our world is increasingly digital where people are online searching for information on health and mental health. If you're presenting yourself as an expert in the field, being honest and transparent about what you are, and are not, qualified to talk about is not just important, it's vital.

Dr Das talks directly to Dr Grande, who on his YouTube channel discusses and assesses the mental health of celebrities, criminals, and those in the public eye. Dr Das challenges Dr Grande to be more transparent about his expertise and qualifications; there is no information on his channel about this. According to his LinkedIn profile, Dr Grande has a PhD in philosophy and is a licensed mental health counsellor. But does he actually have any specific expertise in psychological matters or psychiatry? Dr Grande appears to be going against his own stated position in his recent video on misleading the public about being a doctor.

So, Dr Das asks; “Is Dr Grande the right type of doctor?” Let him know what you think. Check-in on social media using @psychsore or email at psychforsoreminds@gmail.com
