  Medications for Addiction Treatment (MAT) of opioid use disorder involves a combination of medications that target the brain and psychosocial interventions (e.g., counseling, skills development) aimed at improving treatment outcomes. Research shows that medications and therapy together may be more successful than either treatment method alone.

  Physicians must complete eight hours of training to apply to the DEA for a waiver to prescribe buprenorphine, one of three medications approved by the FDA for the treatment of opioid use disorder. The American Osteopathic Academy of Addiction Medicine offers virtual training free of charge.

  MAOFP Virtual Physician Lounge: Imposter Syndrome

  October 4, 2021 7:30 - 8:30pm 

  Hosted by: Myral Robbins, DO and Samantha MacKay-Forton, MHS, OMS III

  Imposter Syndrome is the feeling that you haven’t earned your success, you simply got lucky, and you’re a fraud or an imposter around people who actually earned it and know what they’re doing. It is an increasing prevalent issue in the high-stakes and evaluative culture of medicine.

  This event seeks to generate a conversation by exploring stereotypes including gender, culture and style and offering tactics to overcome the sense of not owning your innate skills and earning your own success. Participation is complimentary for physicians, residents and medical students.
