Dr. Kiva Shtull, MD

Attending Physician — Clinic4RECOVERY

Dr. Kiva Shtull brought something rare to Clinic4RECOVERY: a physician who sees addiction treatment not just as medicine, but as an opportunity for genuine human transformation.

Trained in medicine and deeply committed to patient wellbeing, Dr. Shtull has expanded the practice’s approach beyond medication management into the territory of wellness — helping stabilized patients answer the question that often follows recovery: “Now what do I do with my life?”

He is the author of four books — Wisdom I, Wisdom II, Thanks Sorry Please Wow, and PsychoSynthesis — that reflect his conviction that growth, reflection, and intention are not luxuries. They are necessities.

Dr. Shtull sees each patient as an individual with a distinct story, a unique set of strengths, and an untapped capacity to build something better. He is thoughtful, direct, and genuinely invested in what happens between your visits.

The medication stabilizes. The work is what transforms.
