Fast Practical Psychiatry For Busy Clinicians

Many of my friends and colleagues know I’ve been obsessed with fact sheets for years.

Maybe to an unhealthy degree.

There’s just something about a one-pager.

Einstein supposedly said, “Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler.”

That’s the sweet spot I’ve always aimed for.

Whether it’s how to choose an antipsychotic or how to diagnose Alzheimer’s dementia, I love the challenge of fitting a major topic onto a single 8×11.

Not always possible.

But when it works, you get something concise—something a busy clinician can scan and put to use with patients right away.

That’s the spirit behind our new Carlat Fact Sheet Web App.

Fast, searchable psychiatry for real-world practice. 

→ All 6 Carlat Fact Books, including the new Medication Fact Book (8e) 

→ Full toolkit of med fact sheets, diagnostic guides, and treatment algorithms 

→ Available on any mobile device. Of course it's launching on Black Friday--as cliched as that sounds. (I listen to my marketing team on these things.)

What are the clinical topics you wish had a one-pager?

Tag a colleague who lives off of practical summaries.

Follow me (Daniel Carlat, MD) for grounded psychiatry that values clarity over clutter.
