Life & Business Breakthrough Expert
Dr. rifai
DR. RIFAI survived machine gun fire as a child in war-torn Syria. He escaped thyroid cancer. He walked away from a car crash that should have killed him. Then he faced something no medical school prepares you for: the full force of the United States government.
A board-certified internist and psychiatrist, he has spent over three decades treating addiction, mental illness, and patients no one else would. His federal acquittal became the catalyst for a new mission — one that extends far beyond the courtroom.
Today he writes, speaks, and advocates as a Life & Business Breakthrough Expert, helping individuals, organizations, and medical professionals transform adversity into purpose.

Doctor Not Guilty is not a book about a verdict. It is a book about truth, courage, and what a man does when his name, his calling, and his future are put on trial. A great example of resilience.
Dan Clark
NYT Bestselling Author & Hall of Fame Speaker
"
Doctor Not Guilty is more than a memoir. It is a powerful testament to resilience, integrity, and the courage to tell the truth — a gripping and important story that will stay with readers long after the final page.

"
I believed you and I believed in your defense from the beginning — that's why I took your case. Your innocence led to a not guilty verdict and I thank God he allowed me to play even a small part in vindicating you.

In Hijacked Minds, Dr. Rifai offers a compelling and clinically grounded account of addiction that is both scientifically informed and profoundly humane. This book challenges us to see addiction with greater precision, compassion, and respect for the complexity of the mind.

Hijacked Minds speaks with hard won truth. Dr. Rifai understands addiction as suffering, consequence, and redemption. This book honors people wounded by illness, stigma, and the justice system, while refusing to surrender dignity or accountability.

Beyond the Books
DR. Rifai
Founded SHIELD
After experiencing the full force of a federal prosecution firsthand, Dr. Rifai founded SHIELD — an organization dedicated to helping medical professionals who find themselves targeted by the very systems they serve.
SHIELD provides resources, expert advocacy, and community for physicians, nurses, and healthcare workers facing legal battles, license threats, and regulatory persecution.
Because when healers are silenced, patients suffer.
