Attention Talk Radio Presents "Updated ADHD Diagnosing Practices and Finding a Good Doctor" with Dr. Charles Parker

Tampa, FL, October 26, 2011 --(PR.com)-- On Attention Talk Radio, show host and attention coach Jeff Copper interviews Dr. Charles Parker on the topic, "ADHD Medication Rules: Paying Attention to the Meds for Paying Attention." Dr. Parker is medical director of CorePsych, which provides both personal consultation and professional training to address today’s challenges in psychiatry. He is a child and adult psychiatrist, board certified in psychiatry and certified by the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) for brain nuclear imaging. He has a broad range of clinical experience including psychopharmacology and SPECT neuroimaging.

"ADHD is the most frequently misunderstood, misdiagnosed, and mistreated psychiatric condition on the planet," Dr. Parker says. "The neuroscience evidence gathered over the last ten years on communication between the brain, the endocrine system, and the immune system now encourages a complete rethinking of the many psychiatric platitudes and inadequate labels currently used for patient care." Daily, he teaches these new-science understandings to patients, the public, and medical colleagues. After years of witnessing the limitations of imprecise thinking, Dr. Parker believes the time has come to add laboratory data to psychiatric practice and to begin changing outdated thinking through understanding biomedical evidence.

His book, "Deep Recovery" (1992), used for years as a management training guide, addresses a variety of theoretical and practical difficulties present in any recovery process. His more recent eBook, "ADHD Medication Rules: Paying Attention to the Meds for Paying Attention," is a significant contribution to treatment protocols through an improved understanding of ADHD. His special report on missed diagnosis and imprecise treatment entitled, "Predictable Solutions for ADHD Meds," is available at www.corepsychblog.com, along with other information on Dr. Parker’s books on improving psychiatric medical care.

The program will be aired on Wednesday, November 2, 2011, at 8 pm ET, on Attention Talk Radio, a live, interactive, Internet talk-radio show hosted each week by attention coach Jeff Copper.
