Jeff Lott, the Director of Communications for NET Recovery, joins Dr. William Nelson in this episode of 'Your Road to Personal Addiction Recovery' to discuss groundbreaking developments in treating opioid use disorder (OUD).

The episode sheds light on the challenges faced by those struggling with addiction, including societal perceptions and the difficulties in accessing necessary treatments.
