Benzodiazepine Cooperative Providers

Media and Government Officials

Please do not contact the providers on our list for interviews or speaking engagements. Many do not claim expertise on the subject or respond to these types of inquiries. Instead, contact us directly. We can help you.

Recommendations for Our List

We are always seeking medical providers skilled in benzodiazepine tapering to join our doctors list. If you are one, or would like to make a recommendation, please let us know! We rely on feedback to keep our list up to date, so if you’ve experienced problems with a provider from our list or an office is permanently closed please send us a message.

Important Information

We offer this list of medical professionals who may prescribe while patients attempt a slow taper. Some of the doctors on our list are extremely skilled in cessation methods and some are willing to provide prescriptions, but their tapering advice may be over rapid or unhelpful. 

Purpose of this List

A provider’s presence on this list does not indicate expertise in benzodiazepine cessation. This list was designed to address prescription access issues, not provide benzodiazepine cessation experts or protracted withdrawal assistance. If you have a prescriber who may not be well-informed, but is willing to maintain your prescription while you follow a slow tapering protocol, you may be best served to stick with them. This list is best for patients whose prescribers are forcing an overrapid, unsafe taper or have abruptly stopped their prescription. 

Detox Facilities

We do not endorse abrupt cessation for the vast majority of patients, including abrupt cessations performed in detox or rehab facilities. To learn why read Detox, Cold Turkey, Abrupt Cessation.

A Note About Protracted Withdrawal Help

Medical awareness, recognition, and, consequently, research and help, for protracted withdrawal complications is nearly nonexistent. There are no proven, evidence-based treatments for protracted withdrawal syndrome. It is unlikely that anyone on our list will be able to assist with this problem unless the patient wishes to be reinstated, which may not always work. The available options for patients with protracted syndromes are experimental. We do not maintain a list of providers offering these services as we are not convinced of their safety or effectiveness.

Safer Tapering and Support

Most patients will be unable to find a doctor with appropriate training as medical education does not sufficiently address benzodiazepine safety, so benzodiazepine aware prescribers are extremely rare. Many prescribers may believe that they have appropriate training, but, unfortunately, this is often not the case. Uninformed prescribers frequently prescribe long-term without appropriate informed consent, recommend unsafe taper rates, and lack knowledge about benzodiazepine risk, misdiagnosing benzodiazepine-caused symptoms as relapse or other mental and physical conditions. Because of this gap in medical training, to prevent long-term damage, we recommend that all patients learn about safer cessation on their own so they can ensure any medical advice received is sound.

Patients should learn about safer tapering before their appointment. Read Tapering Strategies and Solutions and the Ashton Manual for more information about tapering options and what a safe taper (5-10% or less of the current dose per month) entails. Consider bringing Benzodiazepine Deprescribing Guidance, an evidence-based guide we helped create, to your appointment.

We ask you to consider joining a support group here. Learn about add-on medications and supplements of concern here.

Notes: The ideal patient lives in or within commuting distance of San Francisco, CA for in-person visits. Dr. Abramson does have some patients who will travel to and reside in San Francisco temporarily (at least a few months) to get started under his care who then return home to continue tapering outpatient. Dr. Abramson does not do telemedicine but will do one-time consults with benzodiazepine/polypharmacy patients where he develops a plan that the patient can implement with their own local provider(s). My Doctor Medical Group is out of network.
