WEST PALM BEACH, FL, Oct. 22, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- QHSLab, Inc. (the "Company") (OTCQB: USAQ), a leader in digital health and point-of-care technologies designed to empower clinicians with proactive, value-based healthcare solutions, is pleased to announce the addition of Dr. Juan D. Oms, a board-certified psychiatrist with extensive expertise in behavioral health and substance use disorders, as a medical advisor. Dr. Oms will provide strategic guidance in integrating advanced digital healthcare solutions to support the mental health and substance misuse and/or abuse needs of patients in primary care settings. Dr. Oms completed his medical degree at the Autonomous University of Guadalajara in Jalisco, Mexico, followed by residency training in Psychiatry at Jackson Memorial Hospital in Miami, in association with the University of Miami and the VA Medical Center. He is a Diplomate of the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology and completed a fellowship in Forensic Psychiatry and a Fellow of the American Psychiatric Association. Over the course of his career, Dr. Oms has developed specialized interests in substance use disorders, serving as Medical Director at several facilities, including Miami Outpatient Detox, where he led the integration of comprehensive outpatient substance use treatment services. Dr. Oms has also made significant contributions to academic psychiatry, serving as Chairman and Program Director of the Psychiatry Residency Southern Winds Hospital. In addition, he has held various academic appointments as Assistant Clinical Professor at FIU College of Medicine, Saint George University, Ross University School of Medicine, and American University of the Antilles. His commitment to education and innovative patient care continues as he serves in various leadership roles, including Director of Psychiatry at Ketamine Health Centers, where he pioneered treatments for resistant depression and contributed to clinical research. Since joining Jackson Behavioral Health in 2020, Dr. Oms has played a key role in developing a co-occurring substance use and mental health inpatient unit and streamlining tele-psychiatric consult services across the Jackson Memorial Hospital System. His expertise in blending traditional and innovative treatment methods aligns with QHSLab’s mission to empower physicians through digital health solutions that improve patient outcomes and enhance practice efficiency. "We are excited to have Dr. Oms join QHSLab as we expand our offerings in mental health and behavioral health solutions," said Troy Grogan, President and CEO of QHSLab. "His extensive experience and leadership in psychiatry and substance use disorders will greatly benefit our mission to integrate advanced, AI-driven healthcare solutions into primary care settings." Since joining QHSLab, Dr. Oms has actively contributed to projects evaluating digital therapeutic interventions for mental health and chronic pain. These include longitudinal studies assessing the impact of QHSLab’s platform on reducing depression (PHQ-9) and anxiety (GAD-7) scores in primary care patients. Early findings from these studies show significant reductions in depression and anxiety symptoms, particularly in patients with severe depression, highlighting the potential for digital health tools to provide accessible, non-pharmacological treatment options. Dr. Oms has also been integral to the success of the Painless series—a digital health initiative designed to help patients manage chronic pain through cognitive-behavioral strategies and health journeys. These efforts align with QHSLab’s broader goal to integrate mental health solutions into primary care practices, offering both lifestyle modifications and mental health support for patients with comorbid conditions. The research mentioned above is part of two scientific abstracts submitted to the American Psychiatric Association Annual Meeting. "Dr. Oms's expertise, background in academia, and dedication to both mental health and digital innovation bring a wealth of knowledge to QHSLab,” said Marcos A. Sanchez-Gonzalez, MD, PhD,. VP of Medical & Scientific Affairs at QHSLab. “We are thrilled to have him on board as he actively contributes to advancing our digital health initiatives.
