                              Rishi Manchanda: What makes us get sick? Look 
upstream.

                              18:13 minutes · TEDSalon NY2014

                              Rishi Manchanda has worked as a doctor in South 
Central Los Angeles for a decade, where he’s come to realize: His job isn’t 
just about treating a patient’s symptoms, but about getting to the root cause 
of what is making them ill—the “upstream" factors like a poor diet, a stressful 
job, a lack of fresh air. It’s a powerful call for doctors to pay attention to 
a patient's life outside the exam room.

examine the problems -- and some compelling solutions. Watch »
