“We must help everyone see that addiction is not a character flaw –it is a chronic illness that we must approach with the same skill and compassion with which we approach heart disease, diabetes, and cancer.” The Surgeon General's Report on Alcohol, Drugs, and Health

-Vivek H. Murthy, M.D., M.B.A. (previously) Vice Admiral, U.S. Public Health Service Surgeon General
