Suboxone Treatments

SUBOXONE TREATMENTS Our program includes two DEA-registered, buprenorphine-waivered physicians, several therapists who specialize in addiction and a knowledgeable and caring support staff.
What are the requirements of the program?

Our state-approved outpatient opioid-based treatment program takes a compassionate approach to opiate addiction. However, we maintain the strictest adherence to federal guidelines that regulate the dispensing of Suboxone and similar products. Patients must complete weekly urine drug screens with lab confirmation and saliva testing comparisons. They must also participate weekly in group and/or individual therapy.

Are appointments available on nights and weekends?

Yes. Doctors and therapists are available in the evenings and on Saturdays to see patients, and we run multiple groups to provide convenient access to services.

How do the prescription treatments work?

There are different kinds of prescription medication, but in general, the medications attach to opioid receptors in the brain, suppressing withdrawal symptoms and reducing cravings.

Can I get the prescription without the counseling?

No. The medications and counseling work together. If you fail to attend group and/or individual counseling sessions, you will be removed from the program.

Do you work with pregnant women?

Yes. We offer treatment options to pregnant women, with the goal of a safe tapering plan to reduce risk to the fetus.

What is the rate of recovery?

Medication-assisted treatment of opiate addiction increases the rate of recovery to between 40 and 60 percent. The rate of recovery without medication is 10 to 15 percent.

Are there risks?

Opiate-related side effects such as constipation, nausea and sedation are possible. The largest risk is the potential for diversion; that is, misuse or abuse of the prescription drugs we prescribe. That is why we insist that patients adhere to drug testing and counseling schedules.

Do you take insurance?

Yes, We accept Medicaid, Medicare, Anthem, Aetna and Cigna.

Can I pay cash?

Yes. We offer competitive and affordable cash prices.

Is your program state approved?

Yes. Our outpatient opioid-based treatment program is approved by the Virginia Department of Medical Assistance Service

We offer a full range of adult outpatient substance abuse and addiction services that allow patients the opportunity to engage in treatment while remaining a participant in their family and work lives.
