Dr. Gabor Maté worked in Vancouver's Downtown Eastside with patients challenged by hard-core drug addition, mental illness, and HIV for 12 years. He is the co-founder of Compassion for Addiction, a new non-profit that focuses on addiction. He is also an advisor of Drugs over Dinner, and he has more than 20 years of family care practice and palliative experience.

As an author, he has written several bestselling books, including the award winning "In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts: Close Encounters with Addiction", "When the Body Says No: The Cost of Hidden Stress", and "Scattered Minds: A New Look at the Origins and Healing of Attention Deficit Disorder." He received the Hubert Evans Prize for Literary Non-Fiction and the 2012 Martin Luther King Humanitarian Award from Mothers Against Teen Violence, among others.
