I specialize in the confidential, individualized treatment of alcohol and other drug use disorders, including prescription painkillers, other opoids, and alcohol, in the privacy of a medical office. My primary emphasis is working to change often dangerous and destructive patterns of alcohol and drug use. Addiction is a complex, chronic relapsing medical disorder with biological, psychological and social components. Successful treatment strategies may combine strong and supportive therapeutic engagement, medication assistance, psychopharmacologic intervention, psychotherapy, and peer support. Patients advance from addiction to recovery at their own pace. Early progress may be uneven and inconsistent, although it may still be ultimately successful.
Effective medical treatment of addiction is based on sound scientific evidence, but it is also patient centered and highly individualized. I support each person's transition away from harmful alcohol or drug use. Medications are often critical to help promote positive change; I use Suboxone (buprenorphine) and other agents as appropriate.
After completing my training in internal medicine I became interested in the challenges faced by patients struggling with addiction to opiates. I have directed addiction treatment programs, been active in the California Society of Addiction Medicine, participated in NIDA sponsored research, and have taught and lectured on issues in addiction medicine. .
