Dr. Brandon Warrick: Addiction Medicine

This week the Conscious Physician Podcast shares the mic with Dr. Fatemi’s colleague and mentor Brandon Warrick, MD. Warrick was born and raised in South Dakota where he entered the medical field as a nurse before attending medical school. He then completed his residency in emergency medicine, worked in private practice, pursued a fellowship in medical toxicology, was boarded in addiction medicine, became teaching faculty in emergency medicine at UNM, and so much more. In part one of this episode, we take in Dr. Warrick’s expertise in the realm of addiction, discussing New Mexico and the US at large’s upward-trending addiction rates. We learn about fentanyl, the trauma of substance abuse, and the complexity of medical intervention. Connect with Dr. Fatemi: https://drlida.family
