"This office is nasty and a joke the staff is very rude and disrespectful they have no respect for the patients all they wanna do is walk around and complain about wanting to go home they don't clean the office good. It is so unorganized and very crowded. The doctor is a joke if you want a doctor that will kill you by giving you anything and not even knowing if you are allergic to the meds or not this is not the doctor to be seen by he is irresponsible even his own staff has said they could run his business better then he can if they had the proper credentials, I also heard a few of his staff saying that they had to watch his back so they won’t be out of a job. So they all are lying for this doctor and watching his back so they won't be out of a job. And he was also giving pain meds to a few of the girls boyfriends; that supposedly quit during corona virus. I used to see the guy come in and sit in the receptionist booth until one of the girls brought him a prescription written by doctor Sacher and y'all still got him in office. Really!!! Look at the system how it works ain't S***!!!!"

What is Addiction Medicine?

Addiction medicine is the diagnosis and medical treatment of addictions and substance abuse disorders. Addiction is a chronic disease of compulsive or uncontrollable behavior which may have adverse health effects. Addictions include substance abuse (such as the abuse of opioids, alcohol, or perscription drugs) and certain non-drug related behaviors such as gambling. Addiction medicine may help patients recover from their addictions and manage health conditions that have been affected by addiction.

Addiction medicine physicians are doctors who possess specialized training in substance abuse diagnosis and treatment. They can treat patients in rehabilitative treatment facilities, hospitals, and other clinical settings. Patients can be assessed through a variety of means such as diagnostic screening, substance abuse assessment, or psychiatric evaluation. Addiction medicine treatments may include:

Detoxification (withdrawal from an addictive substance)
Pharmacotherapy (prescription medications), such as buprenorphine-naloxone (Suboxone), disulfiram, and naltrexone to ease withdrawal symptoms
Addiction therapy and psychiatric care, such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)
Overdose treatment, such as the administration of naloxone (also known as Narcan)
Treatment for HIV/AIDs, hepatitis, or other conditions which may be associated with drug use
Prescription medicine for co-occurring psychiatric disorders
Twelve-step programs and support groups, such as Alcoholics Anonymous (AA)

Addiction medicine has expanded to include the treatment of patient substance abuse in a nonclinical setting. A number of community programs now provide at-risk substance users a safe place or means to use drugs and mobile doctor's services for drug associated illnesses and injuries.
