Can Medication-Assisted Treatment Solve Our Nation's Addiction Crisis? | Dr. Michael McCormick of Release Recovery


Listen Later

Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) has revolutionized addiction recovery, yet it remains one of the most misunderstood approaches to treatment. In this episode, Dr. Michael McCormick, Chief Medical Officer at Release Recovery, provides a comprehensive look at MAT, its effectiveness, and the misconceptions surrounding it. Drawing from nearly a decade of experience in addiction medicine—and his own journey through addiction—Dr. McCormick shares how medications like naltrexone are transforming recovery outcomes, and has the potential to heal our nation.
