At the California Academy of Family Physicians, we know that Addiction Medicine is Family Medicine. In our latest series 1 in 5, we bring you stories of doctors - and their patients - who have worked together to reduce the harm done by opioid use disorder (OUD). These brief stories will bring you into the hearts and minds of our guests. We hope that this will inspire you to do everything in your power to bring medical attention to the OUD patients in your practice.

Episode 1: The Time for Treating Substance Use Disorder Is Now
Raul Ayala, MD interviews Arianna Campbell, PA-C
Why should family doctors - and all primary care providers - integrate treatment for opioid use disorder (OUD) into our practice? You’ll hear first-hand accounts of how medication for opioid use disorder (MOUD) enriches practice, relationships with patients, and most importantly, saves lives. We’ll identify barriers to beginning MOUD and start you on your way to office based opioid treatment (OBOT).

Episode 2: Break the Stigma, Save a Life
Shoaib Khan, MD, AAHIVS interviews Sky Lee, MD, AAHIVS and MK Orsulak, MD, MPH, AAHIVS
Health care providers may still blame patients for their substance use disorder (SUD) even though we know that addiction is a brain disorder and not the result of moral weakness. This episode dives deep into the origins of SUD stigma and how it merged with racism in the U.S. to influence drug policy and treatment. We’ll discuss harm reduction and how to promote health and dignity with people who use drugs.
On the Podcast:
Dr. M. Shoaib Khan graduated from the Dow Medical College, in Karachi, Pakistan in 2006. After completing his internship and three years of research in primary care and infectious diseases at the Aga Khan University, he moved to the United States in 2010 for further training in research and primary care. For the next 5 years, he worked at the pediatric heart centers at the Texas Children’s Hospital, Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, followed by the Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center in Cincinnati. The focus of his research during this time was outcomes in pediatric cardiovascular and congenital heart disease care, thoracic transplantation, and the use of mechanical assist devices in children. He went back to clinical medicine and completed his residency, graduating as a chief resident from the Family and Community Medicine at the School of Community Medicine, the University of Oklahoma in Tulsa. Based on his deep interest in underserved care, he pursued further training in Global Health with the Health, Equity, Action, and Leadership (HEAL) Initiative with UCSF. He works as an addiction and HIV specialist and provides hepatitis C and B care. He completed a formal faculty development fellowship with UCSF Family and Community Medicine (FCM) and has a Master’s of Science degree in Public Health from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, University of London. He is a fellow of the American Academy of Family Physicians.
Dr. Khan divides his interests and time between full-spectrum family medicine, public health projects, and research endeavors. His background along with a strong bent towards justice and equity for underserved populations has led him to work with multi-specialty teams and organizations in Pakistan, Liberia, the Navajo Nation, and other parts of the United States. He joined UCSF Fresno as core faculty with a similar focus on underserved populations in the San Joaquin Valley area, including the migrant workers, rural area medicine, and inner-city underserved. His hospital work includes patient care for adult medicine and obstetrical care with the residents at Community Regional Medical Center, provides outpatient care at Federally Qualified Health Centers for prenatal/women's health and newborn care in Mendota, for HIV care, chronic hepatitis C and B treatment, and addiction care including harm reduction and medication-assisted treatment at Parlier and Downtown Fresno, California.
His current research through the department of FCM focuses around underserved populations and includes a wide variety of topics. He mentors residents for their research projects and provides guidance for all scholarly projects being developed in the department as the clinical lead of the research team.
Sky Lee, MD AAHIVS (she/her) Sky Lee is a board certified Family and Addiction Medicine physician and certified by American Academy of HIV Medicine to provide HIV care. She has previously worked as a rural hospitalist, provided primary care in urban federally qualified health centers, educated the next generation of family medicine physicians at UC Davis and created protocols and given technical assistance for hospitals throughout California to improve access and care for people with substance use disorders with the California Bridge Program. She is currently providing care for people who are incarcerated and is the Vice President of the board for the Reproductive Health Access Project. Dr. Lee’s primary interests are to improve care and access for vulnerable populations, to empower both patients and providers to be advocates for their communities and to dismantle white supremacy within ourselves and in medicine.
Dr. Mary Kathryn (MK) Orsulak (she/her) completed her medical and public health training at Tulane University School of Medicine in New Orleans, LA and is a graduate of the UC Davis Family Medicine Residency Program. She also completed a Primary Care Psychiatry Fellowship through UC Davis and UC Irvine. MK believes that Family Medicine is a collaboration between primary care physicians and patients, and everyone should have access to compassionate healthcare that is patient centered. Her interests include providing primary care-based treatment of substance use disorders, mental health, gender affirming care, and reproductive health with a focus on caring for people experiencing homelessness and people who use drugs. She is passionate about decreasing barriers to primary care and integrating the philosophy of harm reduction when providing patient care. MK believes that medicine does not exist in a vacuum and it is the role of physicians to advocate against systems of oppression that impact their patients, especially when those are reinforced within the healthcare system. MK is currently working at the Sacramento County Primary Care Clinic, Mercy Clinic at Loaves and Fishes, and the Sacramento County Department of Public Health Sexual Health Clinic. Additionally, MK is an attending on the inpatient UCD Substance Use Intervention Team and working on projects to improve access and quality of care for people living outside in Sacramento.
