Physicians will provide medically monitored withdrawal services, addiction treatments, and supports to individuals who are addressing complex and/or chronic substance use disorders and related issues in an intensive rehabilitation setting. These treatments will be informed by best practices and individualized to patient medical needs and goals.
Physicians will provide comprehensive primary care for medical and mental health conditions to patients from vulnerable populations.
Patients within these vulnerable populations often do not seek routine primary care in the community due to lack of access, mistrust of the medical system, or concerns of the stigma associated with their substance use. Therefore, for some individuals, this may be the first interaction with a medical practitioner in recent history which may result in new medical diagnoses of acute and chronic conditions requiring stabilization of untreated medical conditions.
Physician services will case conference with community specialists to provide appropriate consultant services for patients requiring specialist care.
