Testimonials
"For me, it's been a life changing event. I tried a methadone clinic but it was a very difficult program to follow. I was introduced to suboxone and it worked. It reduced cravings. It's a miracle. Before I didn't think a day would pass without thinking of getting high. I recommend this program over other programs. People here are always nice. There is no punishment for relapse. They are flexible when life happens and whenever I need to travel. This has been the solution to my issues."

"Being part of the clinic was very eye-opening and I was able to see the the person for who they are, not by the addiction. It really changed my perception of individuals battling substance abuse disorder."
