Before anything goes live:

• Final medical tests are provided by medical doctors including Ali Nikbakht, PsyD.

This group ensures that all their claims are supported by science. To make our words seem direct and caring, as though we are speaking to you, we use the active voice.

We never guess. We resort to credible sources that are trusted by experts. Some key ones include:

• Government agencies such as SAMHSA, NIH, NIDA and DEA.
• The leading medical publications include Addiction Journal, American Journal of Drug and Alcohol Abuse, and BMJ.
• Such schools as Harvard Medical School and Yale School of Medicine.
• The associations such as the American Psychological Association (APA), World Health Organization (WHO) and American Medical Association (AMA).

These sources contribute to our solution to share the most effective expertise on such issues as dual diagnosis, therapy choices, and recovery instruments. We connect them with each other, which makes you know more.
