In this episode of While I’m Here, Doc, Dr Tom McWaters speaks with Dr Sham Sabri, GP with an extended role in mental health, to explore how GPs can manage the rising demand for mental health support in general practice. We discuss practical approaches to risk assessment, safety-netting, and optimising referrals to secondary care to reduce bounce-backs. The conversation also covers the increasing prevalence of neurodivergent presentations, the impact of social media and screen time on younger patients, and the role of digital tools and AI in mental health care. Sham also reflects on his varied career across clinical practice, leadership, and education, and shares insights into developing an extended role within general practice.
