Dr. Tiffany “Shug” Welch has an extensive career in family medicine and she has long expressed concern about the decline in social and mental interaction that has come about by what she terms “addiction to technology.”
“Through my work as a clinician, I noticed the psychological and physical impacts that technology had on my family, as well as my patients, resulting in depression, anxiety and trouble focusing,” said Welch in a news release. “Being a frontline urgent care worker for the past two and a half years, I’ve faced many challenges.”
