Program Highlights
The St. Luke's University Health Network serves a diverse patient population in eastern Pennsylvania and western New Jersey. Populations include rural communities to the north to more urban settings in Allentown and Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. Our Addiction Medicine Fellowship teaches fellows to respect and care for members of varying social and economic classes, including ones separated by sex, gender, religion, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, housing status or language barrier. It is important for fellows to understand that substance use disorders affect people of many different backgrounds, and that they all matter. Equity and justice are pillars of the education provided. With these principles in mind, we strive to prepare fellows to screen, evaluate, treat and respect patients suffering from substance use disorders in any context. In order to achieve these aims, fellows will be exposed to numerous treatment settings (e.g. hospital, emergency department, detoxification units (level 4.0 and 3.7), inpatient rehab and multiple outpatient experiences) and will work closely with providers from various disciplines, including chronic and acute pain management, regional anesthesia, toxicology, maternal fetal medicine, addiction medicine and addiction psychiatry.
