Seeing doctors for alcoholism

Thank you for your article on the movement toward more physician treatment of alcoholics (“Doctor’s Office May Be Next Rehab Site,” Dec. 24). You handled a difficult topic, one that often suffers from sensationalized approaches, with care and skill.

I hope that you continue to pay attention to the very interesting changes going on in the field of alcoholism treatment.
