A former Lieutenant Colonel and commander in the US Air Force, Uchenna L. Umeh, MD (aka Dr. Lulu The Momatrician) is a mom, a wife, board-certified pediatrician, global speaker on youth suicide, 2-time bestselling author, and youth suicide activist. She is Nigerian-born, mother of three and the CEO of Teen Alive, and Dr. Lulu’s Youth Health Center, both dedicated to the care of high risk teens and suicide prevention.
In 2016 she started speaking publicly about depressive crisis, childhood trauma and suicide following the deaths of colleagues and a patient by suicide. Having been bullied, sexually molested, survived marital domestic abuse, and discrimination at work, she knows first-hand what it is like to struggle with depressive crisis, guilt, mental anguish, overwhelm and suicidal ideation.
She has a unique ability to engage and connect with her audience as she has done with her patients through her nearly 3 decades as a physician. Her mission is to end youth suicide globally through her work with at-risk youth, parents and communities as a whole.
A regular on media outlets, she is working on her own TV show on public television in San Antonio, TX. She freelance-writes for magazines, and has a podcast (Suicide Pages with Dr. Lulu) and blog (Words by Black Butterfly).
On the podcast we talk about erasing the stigma of youth depression, suicide, bullying, and childhood trauma. Why it is so important for parents to know what is going on in their children's lives and the importance of open communication.
