What should be done when pharmacists’ and patients’ values collide? We’ve been struggling with this question for over 20 years and finding a resolution requires understanding professional rights and responsibilities. Check out my latest for @theconversation.com

Policing Patients turned one this week 🥹 I am so grateful for the opportunities this book has given me to speak up for people who use drugs and for people in pain. And I’m awed by the activists, scholars, professionals, and lawmakers who fight for what’s right despite strong political headwinds.

“Conscientious objection” in healthcare is a slippery slope. Physicians should adhere to their professional code of ethics not use personal beliefs to decide who deserves care. 1/ www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
