Methadone pioneer Dr. Vincent P. Dole died this week. It’s worth remembering that methadone started out as one component of some comprehensive bio-psycho-social treatment programs. Unfortunately, many (especially in our area) have devolved into dosing clinics that offer no meaningful treatment and no vision of recovery.
