New Prescription for Addiction : A Comprehensive Treatment Plan

See all formats and editions

For the first time, a doctor has developed a treatment program especially for 'hidden' addicts-people whose lives look just fine on the surface, but who are secretly driven by stress into addictive, destructive behaviours.

Until now, many of these people have been alone in their struggle, their addictions undetected by friends, colleagues, even sometimes family.

Now this breakthrough program treats both hidden substance abuse problems and their underlying causes, without unnecessarily stigmatising these otherwise highly-functioning people.

Richard Gracer, MD, is the founder and director of Gracer Medical Group, which has been holistically treating patients with complex health issues since 1979.

In 2005, he launched Gracer Behavioural Health Services specifically to treat addiction, alcoholism, and other stress-related mental health issues.

He has pioneered a revolutionary 5-step treatment protocol that addresses substance abuse cravings and their underlying causes through intensive short-term treatment across several disciplines. It uses several new drugs-some very recently approved by the FDA-that promise to revolutionise the treatment of addictions, as well as a comprehensive support system to address the many challenges addicts face.
