Dr. Blake practices medicine at SafeRecovery, prescribing Buprenorphine to people with Opioid Use Disorder. The show focuses upon the stigma placed upon people with mental health and substance use disorder, how this costs lives by creating an unwelcoming treatment and recovery environment, and what viewers can do change this and create compassion for these vulnerable populations.
