About The Lexington Center for Opioid Dependence
The Lexington Center for Opioid Dependence is an outpatient addiction treatment provider in Lexington, Kentucky, specializing in medication assisted treatment for opioid addiction. The center combines a Medication Maintenance Therapy Program with counseling, group therapy and telemedicine follow ups to support recovery from prescription painkillers, heroin and other opioids. Clients appreciate that the doctors listen carefully and treat each person with respect, not as a number.
Outpatient Medication Assisted Treatment Paired with Group Therapy
The center provides outpatient medication assisted treatment (MAT) that includes opioid replacement therapy and anti craving medication, paired with weekly group therapy and educational counseling about addiction and recovery. After an intake assessment and physician evaluation, each client receives an individualized recovery plan. Referrals to individual therapy, family therapy and mutual support groups like AA and NA are also available.
Treatment for Adults Addicted to Opioids
The Lexington Center treats adults struggling with opioid dependence, including those addicted to prescription pain medications, heroin, or suboxone. The physicians are board certified by the American Board of Addiction Medicine, which means they have specialized training to manage more complex addiction cases.
The center accepts private insurance and self pay. Payment is required in full at each visit, with no exceptions noted on their site. Your first visit includes a medical history review, psychosocial assessment and urine drug screen at the Lexington office on Professional Heights Drive.
After that initial in person appointment, many follow ups can be completed by telemedicine, with prescriptions sent to a pharmacy near you and drug testing kits provided for remote check ins.
