Featuring Sunflower Team at Lynn Community Health Center

In the first of our series on the care of pregnant women with substance use disorders, Landrey Fagan and Pat Lee join us to talk about their experience forming their team called the Sunflower team at Lynn Community Health Center, which provides full-spectrum care for women suffering from SUDs during and after pregnancy in an effort to reduce stigma, reduce fragmentation of care, and keep women engaged in care throughout their pregnancy, delivery, and in the post-partum period.

Landrey Milton Fagan, MD is a board-certified Family Physician who provides full spectrum family care including surgical obstetrics. She has been working at Lynn Community Health Center in Lynn, MA for the past six years and has recently relocated to Boulder, Colorado where she will be joining Salud Family Medical Center in nearby Longmont.  Patrick Lee, MD is Chair of Medicine at North Shore Medical Center in Salem, MA and Assistant Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School. He has dedicated his career to solving two problems: helping individuals and teams reach their fullest potential, and creating health systems that deliver the safe, kind, and timely care that patients deserve. Dr. Lee believes “the secret of quality is love” and tries to deepen his understanding of, and align his daily actions to, this essential lesson.
