Ever wondered what really sets detox apart from rehab? Dr. Mark Leeds dives into this crucial topic, breaking down the key differences and why both are essential in the journey to recovery. Detoxification is often seen as the first step, but Dr. Leeds emphasizes it's not a one-size-fits-all solution. He explains that while detox helps to clear the body of substances, it's just the beginning. Ongoing medical treatment and support are vital for long-term success. Dr.

He also highlights the growing benefits of online treatment options, which can provide much-needed flexibility and accessibility. The episode doesn't shy away from the hard truths but also offers hope. Dr.
Leeds stresses the importance of finding what works for each individual, whether that's MAT, traditional step programs, or a blend of different approaches. The key takeaway? Compassionate, non-judgmental support is crucial. If you're navigating your own recovery or supporting someone else, this episode offers valuable perspectives and practical advice.
