In  the summer of 2008, Dr. Earley addressed the Oklahoma Board of Medicine and the Oklahoma Impaired Physicians Program about addiction in physicians. His lecture was part of an evening training with Dr. Lanny Anderson and the Oklahoma Impaired Physicians Program. The lecture covers the basics of addiction treatment for physician patients, why physician treatment is different, and how characteristics of the physician's personality complicate treatment.
