OBSERVATIONS FROM A RECOVERING ALCOHOLIC
DR. J. ANTHONY QUINN
WHY HUMAN CONNECTION IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN EVER
Dr. J. Anthony Quinn is a Board-Certified Orthodontist who practiced in Northeastern Pennsylvania for the past 44 years.
For the past 35 years he has been involved with both a recognized 12 step program and a weekly Caduceus meeting that was designed for health care professionals to help them face the special challenges they face when they first become sober.
His experiences with these groups have given him insight into the true nature of recovery. In his book he cautions us be wary of drug assisted treatment as an answer for addition. The human connection is the answer to successful recovery.
“The mentality an behavior of drug addicts and alcoholics is wholly irrational until you understand that they are completely powerless over their addiction, and unless they structured help, they have no hope.”
~ Russell Brand
