What if a person has an addiction and psychiatric problem present at the same time?

The addictionologist is a physician who specializes in addiction medicine, who can accurately assess any addiction issues. The psychiatrist is available to assess the patient from a psychiatric point of view. Together they can collaborate on appropriate medications, as well as, whether the presenting psychological symptoms are a result of years of drug and alcohol use and will clear over time or whether psychiatric medication is the solution.
