I am licensed to prescribe Suboxone, but will only do it on a very limited basis, and we are VERY selective. We want to help the person enslaved by addiction, not create them.

We possess an intensive clinical curiosity regarding disease. We love to help others when we can. We continue to study new diseases everyday we wake up. We strive to understand why they occur, what we can do to treat them, and how to prevent them from happening again to you.

We HATE disease!
