We Helped Physicians Conquer Impairments:

PHYSICIAN HEALTH PROGRAM

MSDC created the Physician Health Program over 20 years ago to help physicians and medical students impaired by alcoholism, drug abuse, mental illness, psychosexual disorders, and/or aging. Over the years, the program has helped hundreds of individuals get their lives back on track. The primary goal is to help physicians obtain treatment and get back to work. The program, conducted by the Medical Society's Physician Health Committee, encourages confidential referrals about physicians with impairments. When a concern is submitted, MSDC investigates discreetly, asks the physician to meet with the appropriate specialist for evaluation, recommends an appropriate treatment plan, and asks the physician to sign a five-year contract.
