Abstract
I'm often asked, “Why did you leave full-time practice in Obstetrics & Gynecology (OBGYN) to pursue a fellowship in Addiction Medicine?” My answer is that I wasn't having the impact on patients I had always imagined. I came to recognize that I was barely scratching the surface of the biopsychosocial aspect of complete health with the physical treatment I provided. When I learned about Addiction Medicine, I knew that this was the aspect of treatment I had been missing. As I began to explore the field, I realized that there is a dearth of providers dedicated to the care of patients suffering with substance use disorders (SUDs), and even fewer providing skilled reproductive healthcare for people with SUDs.
