If your relationship with drugs, alcohol or other addictive behaviors are making your life difficult, I can help. I am a board certified addiction specialist practicing in this office since May 2008. My practice is called AMS - Addiction Medicine Services since March 2024. Prior to that, you know us as "the practice formerly known as Peak Medical Services." My goal is to help you live a happy, joyous and free life.
After a career in OB/GYN and my own personal recovery journey, I trained at UHHS / Case Western University in the specialty of Addiction Medicine. I offer all forms of MAT (Medication Assisted Treatment - examples: Suboxone, Vivitrol), Group Support and individual emotional support.
Please call if we can help. I understand.
