Nationally recognized Psychologist visits Zanesville

ZANESVILLE, Ohio – A nationally recognized Psychologist with addiction medicine came to Zanesville Tuesday. 

Dr. Brad Lander from The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center spoke to the community about trying to destigmatize addictions. One of his stops was at the health fair at Secrest Auditorium.

“I’m not that familiar with Zanesville, so this was a good opportunity for me to see what was going on and to realize how much local support there was because I was not aware of any of this,” said Dr. Lander.

The idea of the health fair was to help support friends and family affected by addiction. They wanted the community to know what resources are available to them.
