Dr. Lanny Snodgrass - An Ageless Call to Serve

About this episode

Lanny Snodgrass, MD, PhD, is a distinguished psychiatrist, and Department of Defense physician, veteran, and respected authority on military mental health. His impressive career spans over four decades of experience treating military personnel, both active duty and veterans. Dr. Snodgrass has established himself as a leading voice in advocating for the psychological well-being of our nation's heroes.

As a civilian psychiatrist, Dr. Snodgrass has devoted much of his career to serving veterans at VA hospitals nationwide. His compassionate care and deep understanding of military personnel's unique challenges have earned him the trust and gratitude of countless patients.

In a remarkable display of dedication, Dr. Snodgrass joined the U.S. Army at 63, becoming the oldest to do so. During his assignment within the Department of Defense and active duty, he provided crucial mental health support to soldiers during the Gulf War and beyond, earning numerous accolades for his tireless efforts.

In addition to his clinical work, Dr. Snodgrass is a sought-after speaker and consultant on military mental health issues. He has presented his research at international conferences and has been published in numerous prestigious medical journals.

With his groundbreaking book, "The Ageless Call to Serve: Rethinking Military Service for a Changing World," Dr. Snodgrass challenges outdated notions about age restrictions in the military. Drawing on his own experiences and the stories of other late-life enlistees, he makes a compelling case for tapping into the vast reservoir of talent and expertise among older Americans who wish to serve their country.

Through his work as a psychiatrist, soldier, and author, Dr. Snodgrass is committed to improving mental health support for our military and breaking down barriers to service. His unique perspective, born of decades of dedication and personal sacrifice, makes him an invaluable voice in the ongoing dialogue about the future of our armed forces.
