About Me

Hi, I’m Dr. Alex Zaphiris (Zuh-FEAR-is), MD MS. From working with patients over the last 20 years I have seen what works and what doesn’t work.  When I started out, meds like buprenorphine to help with detox and recovery were not available yet.  They made a big difference for a lot of people and saved a lot of lives.  It was the tip of the iceberg though.  It bought time for people to recover but did not address any of the underlying issues that brought someone to addiction.  Taking medication like buprenorphine instead of opiates is healing for the brain.  Each day you don’t use opiates your brain recovers a little bit. But it is just the beginning. 

To finally get back your life, and get off any substance, you require more. I should know, after working with many patients and seeing addiction in my own family, right? 

When I started seeing more and more patients with opiate addiction, it became obvious that they also struggled with depression, anxiety and insomnia.  When I applied other tools - diet, nutrition, and mindfulness -  that I had been using, they quickly started to feel much better. Cravings were less, they slept better, with less anxiety and depression.

This is the missing link that people don’t learn in rehab or in 12 step meetings and I have found that it makes a big difference in stacking the deck to prevent relapse. If your goal is to stay in recovery or eventually taper off suboxone, it’s essential.
