Daniel R. Karlin, MD, MA
Chief Medical Officer, Recovery Delivered

Dr. Daniel R. Karlin, MD, MA, is a psychiatrist, addiction medicine specialist and medical informatician. He is Recovery Delivered's Chief Medical Officer. He built the clinical protocols our providers use, and he reviews Recovery Delivered's published health content. His work sits where health and technology meet: psychiatric drug development, new ways to measure symptoms, and data-driven methods for clinical research and clinical care.
He brings that training, and his experience treating addiction with medication, to every page he reviews. The goal is simple: information patients can rely on, that is accurate, current and based on evidence.
