I'm a board-certified addiction medicine and family medicine physician with a master's in counseling/therapy. I offer MAT/medications for addiction treatment (suboxone/buprenorphine-naloxone, naltrexone, Chantix etc), harm reduction counseling, motivational interviewing, and addiction-related CBT. I also manage co-occurring psychiatric conditions (anxiety, depression, PTSD) and the medical complications of addiction (liver damage, heart failure, cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome etc). I see patients with problems using any substance including alcohol, opioids, vaping/tobacco, marijuana/cannabis, cocaine, methamphetamine etc.
Addiction is a chronic disease just like diabetes or hypertension! There are changes in your brain that make it very difficult to stop! We can help reverse some of those changes so you can get back to owning your own life!
I see adults, adolescents, and pregnant patients! I accept Medicaid, Medicare, Peach State/Peach care for Kids, and most commercial insurances! Telehealth appts are available after an initial in-person visit. Give us a call to make an appointment in our outpatient clinic. Just ask to be seen in Dr. Shawkut Ali's MAT clinic.
