Dr. Aharonov received her cum laude BA from Drew University with Honors in Psychology in 1984 and after a brief interruption for marriage and 3 children, she continued her education in UMDNJ-SOM which she successfully graduated with a D.O. degree in 1996. She completed her residency in Anesthesiology in University of Michigan in 2000, and has since practiced full time in both acute settings, hospital and outpatient facilities.
She got interested in narcotics detox when she was tasked to set up such service for a group she joined. While researching the subject and learning everything she could about it, she saw ways to improve and perfect the process by including some of her knowledge and experience in neurology and pain medicine.
She feels that it is an important duty to give those afflicted with addition or those who have loved ones that are, as much knowledge about this disease as possible. To give them tools , choices and options to decide how to take control of their lives.
