For us, our core mission and our core focus has always been on the patient, and I think that that's ultimately the reason why we've gotten so much support from the community is because that's ultimately their mission as well.
Imagine using technology to bridge the gap between addiction and recovery. That’s exactly what Raj Gupta, CEO and Co-Founder of FLT Medical, is doing. In this episode of 'Stigmatized', Raj shares his journey from Silicon Valley to Ohio, driven by a desire to combat the opioid epidemic devastating his community. Drawing from his tech background, Raj has developed a groundbreaking platform called Find Local Treatment (FLT) that connects patients to quality addiction treatment providers in real-time.
This user-friendly tool is transforming the way health systems manage addiction care, making it easier for physicians, patients, and first responders to find the right help when it's needed most. Raj also opens up about the challenges of dealing with a healthcare system that often falls short and the importance of patient-centered, evidence-based care. He emphasizes the need to break down the stigma surrounding mental health and addiction, advocating for legislative support for vulnerable populations.
This episode offers a compelling look at how innovation and compassion can come together to create real change in behavioral health.
