In this episode of the Medic2Medic Podcast, Steve sits down with Dr. Melody Glenn, a practicing physician who is triple board-certified in EMS, Addiction Medicine, and Emergency Medicine. Dr. Glenn serves as an Associate Professor at the University of Arizona, medical director for several rural fire departments along the U.S.–Mexico border, and Associate Program Director of an addiction medicine fellowship. Dr. Glenn is the author of Mother of Methadone, which highlights the groundbreaking work of Dr. Marie Nyswander and the history of methadone treatment.

The conversation explores the intersection of EMS, emergency medicine, and substance use treatment, with a candid discussion about provider burnout, bias in healthcare, and the stigma that continues to surround addiction and those seeking treatment.

Steve and Dr. Glenn also discuss her book. They examine how misinformation, fear, and policy failures have shaped the opioid crisis and what healthcare professionals can do differently moving forward. This episode is an honest and thoughtful look at compassion, accountability, and the role EMS can play in treating addiction as a medical condition.
