In this episode of The Resource, I sit down with Dr. Daniel Sumrok, Medical Director at Landmark Recovery, which operates multiple facilities, including Praxis of Columbus, Ohio. Dr. Sumrok brings decades of experience treating addiction across Ohio, West Virginia, Indiana, Tennessee, Washington, D.C., and the East Coast.

Dr. Sumrok is a distinguished family physician and addiction specialist with over 40 years of experience. He began his medical career as a U.S. Navy Hospital Corpsman during the Vietnam War and has since dedicated his life to understanding and treating addiction. He is board-certified in Addiction Medicine and has been a pioneer in integrating trauma-informed approaches into substance use disorder treatment.

We dive into key topics like:

Where addiction really comes from?

Abstinence-based recovery vs. Medically Assisted Treatment (MAT)

The role of medical marijuana and Adderall in addiction treatment

The challenges facing addiction treatment across the U.S.

This is an important and eye-opening conversation about the evolving landscape of addiction treatment. Tune in!
