Description

We are back again with another episode! I had the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Victoria Weaver, one of the only dual infectious diseases and addictions medicine specialists in Canada. She shares her insights on the treatment of infectious diseases in patients with concurrent substance use. In particular, we discussed the challenges that arise in ID treatment, disease severity and continuity of care. Additionally, we delved into the ethical dilemmas that often arise in this line of work and the importance of multidisciplinary healthcare teams to this specific population.
