About our speaker:
Dr. Brucker completed her emergency medicine residency at Northwestern University’s Feinberg School of Medicine in Chicago. She is board certified in both emergency and addiction medicine and is a graduate of Harvard Medical School. Dr. Brucker is a Minnesota native and earned her undergraduate degree in biochemistry from DePauw University in Greencastle, Indiana.
Dr. Brucker has an addiction medicine practice at Oaklawn South Bend that provides a full range of mental health and addiction services. She is also a partner with South Bend Emergency Physicians, which provides emergency room services for Memorial Hospital South Bend.
Dr. Brucker’s interest in addiction medicine grew out of her time as a junior faculty member at Indiana University School of Medicine’s Department of Emergency Medicine. There, she designed and implemented Project POINT, a collaborative effort aimed at identifying, treating, and linking patients with opioid use disorders to life-saving medications and post discharge treatment.
Since moving to South Bend in 2019, Dr. Brucker has supported expanded access to medications for OUD both within Beacon Health System and through her work in the addiction medicine program at Oaklawn South Bend, as well as with the county's opioid response team.
