Since 2007, Dr. Mitchell has treated over 1,500 individuals who suffer from opioid addiction using Suboxone and Subutex. He provides online Zoom telemed services to the greater areas of Miami (Miami-Dade County), Fort Lauderdale (Broward County), West Palm Beach (Palm Beach County), and Key West (Monroe County).

Dr. Mitchell serves the predominantly low-income, no-income people in Southeast Florida, helping patients to wean when they decide the time is right for them to stop.

Dr. Mitchell’s Online Telemed Service allows patients to be seen no matter where they are in Southeast Florida. It saves them gas and drive time, and it can be an invaluable resource during an emergency like a hurricane.

The active ingredient in Suboxone and Subutex is buprenorphine which prevents cravings and withdrawals. Suboxone has an additional ingredient - naloxone - which prevents euphoria if the medication is snorted, injected or smoked.

During recreational opioid use, people train themselves mentally and physically to turn to opioids whenever they are in pain: physical or emotional. Therefore, the real cure for opioid addiction is to develop new coping mechanisms for any physical or emotional problems. This is where counseling comes in, because in counseling you develop the skills (coping mechanisms) needed to defeat opioid addiction.

So why use Suboxone or Subutex? Because it’s hard to do counseling with a monkey on your back. Cravings and withdrawals can occur suddenly and repeatedly throughout the recovery process. Until you develop new coping mechanisms, any significant stressor or trigger has the potential to induce opioid cravings which, untreated, can cause relapse. Suboxone and Subutex are not a cure for opioid addiction. They are merely an oasis where cravings and withdrawals are kept at bay so that you can focus on your recovery process.

Under Florida law, osteopathic physicians are generally required to carry malpractice insurance or otherwise demonstrate financial responsibility to cover potential claims for medical malpractice. However, certain parttime osteopathic physicians who meet state requirements are exempt from the financial responsibility law. YOUR OSTEOPATHIC PHYSICIAN HAS DECIDED NOT TO CARRY MEDICAL MALPRACTICE INSURANCE. This is permitted under Florida law subject to certain conditions. Florida law imposes strict penalties against noninsured osteopathic physicians who fail to satisfy adverse judgments arising from claims of medical malpractice.
