Dr. William Goodman, Chief Medical Officer at Catholic Medical Center.
Topic: Opiate & Heroin Abuse Epidemic
Dr. Bill Goodman will be the SNHJMC guest speaker Sunday April 3rd. He is the Chief Medical Officer & Vice President of Medical Affairs at Catholic Medical Center in Manchester.
Recent polls have consistently revealed that drug abuse is the biggest concern of Granite Staters. It is a lucky person who has not been directly or indirectly touched by this recalcitrant problem that is leading to more than a death every day in New Hampshire.
Bill will share his view on how our local and national opiate/heroin abuse problem developed, its current status and some of the many initiatives trying to curb this complex recalcitrant problem. There will be time reserved for questions and discussion.
Dr. Goodman has been actively engaged in addressing the opiate/heroin abuse epidemic in his institution, Manchester and New Hampshire (recent WMUR commentary).
Dr. Goodman received his MD from Tufts University School of Medicine and did his residency at Johns Hopkins Hospital and a fellowship at Brigham & Women’s Hospital. He also holds a Master’s in Public Health from Harvard University. Dr. Goodman is Board certified in Critical Care Medicine, Pulmonary Disease and Internal Medicine
As always, a hot breakfast of eggs and potatoes will be served, accompanied by bagels, lox, whitefish salad and all the trimmings! Cost is $5.00 for paid up members and $10.00 for others. We look forward to seeing you there.
