Manage episode 304370972 series 2954946
Tales of Victims & Victors
Dr. Jim and Dr. Bob discuss the forgotten victims and victors in the labor force. These tales of real workers offer insight into the human response to serious tragedy and challenge. See what can be learned, whether you are a clinician or someone otherwise interested in human behavior, from this preeminent psychiatrist who considers himself to be a “working person’s shrink.” In this podcast, Dr. Bob also dazzles us with his blues harp and plays his redemption songs.
Dr. Bob Larsen is a working-class kid who grew up to become a ‘working man’s shrink’. He has more degrees than a thermometer. Forsaking a career in molecular and cellular biology, Dr. Bob opted to attend medical school at Northwestern University where he was smitten by the field of psychiatry, never having taken a course in psychology. He then bypassed his alma mater in Colorado to complete a residency at UCSF, a Robert Wood Johnson fellowship at Stanford/UCSF, and an MPH at Cal. His expertise in the fields of occupational & forensic psychiatry have been taught in his role as a Clinical Professor at UCSF School of Medicine (volunteer faculty, 1984-2017).
Dr. Bob served on the Industrial Medical Council for its entire thirteen-year existence. He has done yeoman’s work for impaired physicians, seriously injured workers, and all who confront stodgy bureaucrats in our health care system. He’s a member of the American College of Psychiatrists and the Group for the Advancement of Psychiatry. Not a blind advocate, yet hopefully a man of the people.
