Addiction Medicine
Drug and alcohol addiction have reached epidemic proportions. Some people become addicted "accidentally" while using drugs or alcohol for fun. Other people become addicted during the course of chronic pain management. Whatever the cause, the addiction is a brain disease which cannot be cured but which, in the majority of people, can be controlled. No matter how you developed your addiction, if you are seeking help we can assess whether out patient treatment might be right for you.
