Dr. Samir Nayyar and Dr. Hemanshu Patel from Choice Medical Group in Victorville joined Jeff Salkin at KVFG to continue their series on various health and wellness topics.

The topic for this segment is “Mental Health and Depression.” Major depression is defined as an extended period of overwhelming sadness and involves the loss of joy and satisfaction with activities that used to bring pleasure.

The feelings of sadness can be accompanied by other emotional and physical symptoms that left untreated can lead to complications that put your life at risk.
