Who are we?
|
We are a group of women and men helping each other to stay sober.
We are dentists, physicians, surgeons, nurses, and psychologists. Any professional in healthcare is welcome. We share with each other stories of struggles, failures, and successes. We celebrate each other and encourage one another. We live through life sober together. We are not affiliated with any medical boards or monitoring entities. We are self-sufficient and autonomous. We want you to succeed in sobriety and in life. |
Rarely have we seen a person fail who has thoroughly followed our path....” |
Why Caduceus?The healthcare profession can make us feel very lonely. Even when we are surrounded by many people, the feelings of loneliness may be overwhelming.
You may feel like you are the only healthcare professional, who has a substance use problem. In our rooms, you'll discover that you are not. You will be accepted and loved by others, who have gone through similar experiences. They survived and found a bit of serenity with the help of others. In our professions, we are held to a higher standard. There are nuances and demands that only another in the same profession may appreciate. That is where we find our healing and hope. |

Testimonials

John E
"I've attended Reno Cadeuceus since it started approximately 35 years ago. I've seen it grow and shrink and grow and shrink. It's a great place to talk about stuff you might not want to in a regular recovery meeting or with your non-recovering medical peers. A sweet spot for addict-alcoholics in the medical, nursing, and psych professions." Lauri C
"As a treatment provider in recovery, I need a place where I can feel safe sharing my personal struggles - and triumphs- with my peers. I enjoy being able to get and give support. It is very important to me to share my experience, strength, and hope with newcomers. To give back what was freely given to me. Caduceus Group is that place." Paul P
"Caduceus helped me understand my recovery process as a healthcare professional. Even in sobriety, I went through losses in life, and the fellowship helped me to stay sober and hopeful." |
