A Board-Certified Psychiatrist, Dr. Wayne Macfadden holds an MD from the State University of New York at Buffalo School of Medicine. Over the past three decades, Wayne Macfadden, MD, has worked as a clinical psychiatrist and researcher in several pharmaceutical companies and leverages this experience to serve as the co-owner of International Psychiatric Services, where he specializes in treating and diagnosing patients with substance use disorder. He is also a former member of the American Psychiatric Association (APA). The American Psychiatric Association (APA) has emphasized the significance of mental health care access and support for those who are caught in the ongoing evacuation effort in Afghanistan. APA stated in a news release that U.S. military members and international service personnel and their families, as well as their Afghan coworkers and their families who were evacuated, should all be supported. These people, according to the association, are at a higher risk of developing mental illnesses such as PTSD. In the face of shifting political and social climates for the refugees, APA has produced materials for psychiatrists covering treatment recommendations for undocumented immigrants. A trauma treatment toolkit and a video dedicated to immigrants' mental health are among the resources.
