Because they are board certified addiction specialists they have made the commitment to become top experts in the field of addiction medicine, specifically opioid addiction, and have passed rigorous testing by the American Board of Addiction Medicine examiners. Many doctors attempting to treat drug dependent individuals in Kentucky recovery centers are not boarded addictionologists, and may not have the proper education, training and experience to effectively treat those suffering from opioid addiction.
