About University Clinical Health UT Addiction Medicine
University Clinical Health’s UT Addiction Medicine is a drug rehab unit that provides support to professionals struggling with substance abuse as well as individuals with concurrent mental health issues. They’re based in Memphis, Tennessee. They accept private health insurance, along with Medicaid and Medicare. They offer self-pay options.
The First Center of Excellence in Addiction Medicine in the Country
The facility’s Center for Addiction Science was recognized as the first center of excellence for addiction treatment in the U.S. With their accessible care to its local community, you can rely on this center for quality substance abuse support.
Care is provided on an outpatient basis, and involves case management and counseling services, along with medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for comprehensive support. MAT uses medications like buprenorphine and naltrexone to manage the physical symptoms of your addiction while untangling the mental and emotional elements in talk therapy. Referrals can be made to community resources for both you and your family members.
Overall, the treatment approach here can be described as abstinence-based, while integrating 12-step philosophies for rounded support. The center’s Dr. John B. Woods has emphasized the importance of treating addiction as a disease. He has stated that university backing can help reduce the stigma, and promote further understanding around this oft misunderstood condition.
