Presented by Dr Chris Davis, a GP expert in providing primary care alcohol withdrawal and recovery services and Medical Director at Clean Slate Clinic, the telehealth provider.
Alcohol and drug dependence remain major health and social problems in Australia, contributing significantly to the global burden of disease and the everyday practice of primary care.
Primary care has a critical role to play in the support and management of individuals with mild to moderate alcohol disorder.

This is both thorough and compassionate. I live in the US and there is just no way you could get this level of care as an outpatient. Mainly, you are encouraged to go to a for-profit rehab center, which is big business in the US
