Outpatient Medication Assisted Treatment Programs

Clients typically begin with an in-person assessment and medication evaluation, and the clinic welcomes walk-ins and urgent referrals from emergency departments or the justice system. Appointments are often available within 24 hours, with no wait lists.
Treatment may include medications such as buprenorphine products (Suboxone, Sublocade, Brixadi) or naltrexone (Vivitrol) for opioid use disorder, combined with referrals to behavioral health counseling and group therapy.
