VH1 Prepares for Another Rehab with Dr. Drew

Dr. Drew and VH1 are teaming up again to help teens in need with the sixth installment of Rehab with Dr. Drew. Premiering on September 16th at 8pm, the show will follow Dr. Drew as he deals with “eight of his most challenging patients to date all with hardcore addictions ranging from heroin to prescription pills to alcohol.”
 
The audience will be provided with a behind-the-scenes look at the rehab process as the show focuses on Dr. Drew and his patients as the patients face the emotionally and physically challenging road to sobriety. “Addiction is a disease that doesn’t limit itself to celebrities but reaches across all economic, social and racial boundaries with lasting and profound effects of not only of the patients but also their families, friends and co-workers. Rehabilitation and sobriety on the other hand are an arduous lifelong journey,” said Dr. Drew.
 
Counselor Bob Forrest, resident technician Shelly Sprague, and resident technician Jennifer Gimenez are returning to the show as is Dr. John R. Sharp, M.D, faculty member at Harvard Medical School and the David Geffen School of Medicine, University of California, Los Angeles.
