Dr. Arun Gupta is an addiction doctor who says he will not retire until we resolve the Opioid Crisis. He believes this crisis could have been avoided altogether if doctors were allowed to properly do their jobs without interference from bureaucrats.
Dr. Gupta sees treating a patient with addiction the same way you would treat a diabetic patient; with compassion, empathy, and using a long-term approach. Using methods such as medically assisted treatment, Dr, Gupta sees people go from rock bottom to living full, productive lives. His book is a best seller and he hopes will get people to listen to his advice so we can turn the tide on the Opioid Crisis and start saving lives.

Bio in his own words:
I am a primary care physician for 34 years. I started learning and practicing addiction medicine in 2006. I have done over 150 presentations trying to educate community physicians and social groups about various aspects of addiction. My primary interest is the lack of access to care for patients with Opioid use disorder or substance use disorder.
