Dr. Berger works as a part-time physician with Brighton’s drug abuse treatment centers, joining the team in 1998. He is in private practice at the Sacred Heart Medical Center in Livonia, Michigan, and specializes in Addiction Medicine and Internal Medicine. He is a committed family man and active member of his church.
Because of the expertise and commitment of Dr. Berger, and the rest of the staff at Brighton’s drug abuse treatment centers, we are mending lives. Our multidisciplinary team of drug and alcohol abuse treatment specialists know that chemical dependency is a disease – not a weakness. Our commitment to leadership centers around treating every patient with compassion, dignity and clinical excellence, because this is how you deserve to be treated. We know this because many of our drug and alcohol abuse experts are also in recovery, or are adult children of alcoholics. Approximately one-half of Brighton’s employees came to our centers first for drug and alcohol abuse treatment and rehabilitation, before joining our staff.
Every Brighton Hospital addiction treatment associate receives annual service excellence training. This is reflected by patient satisfaction scores exceeding 90 percent. Plus, having established America’s first Fellowship in Addiction Medicine in a clinical setting, we lead the nation in the medical education for specialists choosing to work in drug abuse treatment centers. In addition, we help expand the understanding and knowledge of drug and alcohol abuse treatment through regular rotations of nursing, medical and social work students. These are some of our unique advantages in guiding our patients to recovery. Welcome to hope. Welcome to the expertise at Brighton’s drug abuse treatment centers.
