Mr. Bellini followed up with: “so you go away for 30 days and it's almost guaranteed that you're gonna relapse?” …Dr. Wakeman replied: "yup after your family may have spent $60,000 on said rehab program and so we really set up people to fail and then we blame them when they don't do well "... for those interested in gaining an understating of the addiction treatment problem in the US right now, and the charlatans who have hung up shingles to "treat" opioid addicts, a look at this video of a recent Congressional hearing will be illuminating:"Examining Concerns of Patient Brokering and Addiction Treatment Fraud" https://energycommerce.house.gov/hearings/examining-concerns-patient-brokering-addiction-treatment-fraud/
