He actively manages and provides physician oversight for the medication-assisted treatment of patients struggling with substance abuse.

The modern philosophy of recognizing addiction as a neurobiological, genetic, and environmental condition and the compassionate treatment for the disease process has earned him a 5-star google rated practice in the Chicago metro area.

An expert in his field, the doctor is board certified in both Addiction Medicine and Emergency Medicine specialty with certifications recognized by the American Board of Medical Specialties.

As an Emergency medicine physician, Dr. Oyasu is a regional medical director for American Physician Partners and provides physician oversight for emergency room contract management in multiple hospitals in Illinois. The emergency room is often the last resort for many patients that suffer from addiction and he is a strong advocate for beginning medication to manage addiction from the ER.
