We are the only independent practice in the Eastern Panhandle of West Virginia with a Board Certified Physician in Addiction Medicine. We work daily to bring patients closer to recovery, helping them to stay in treatment instead of discharging them for struggling to comply with standards.
Health care and other treatment centers in the area are highly regulated in West Virginia and offer similar services. The difference? We believe in patients first, and we really (really) don’t want them to give up – despite the challenges. We hope patients see our door as always open, especially in times of challenge. When things get complicated, we will strengthen our efforts for them.
Genetics, environment, medical history, and age all play a role. Certain types of drugs, and methods of using them, are also more addictive than others.
Personality changes, lack of personal hygiene, money problems, and physical symptoms like bloodshot eyes or shaking can appear with addiction.
People with addiction often have one or more associated health issues, including lung or heart disease, stroke, cancer, or mental health conditions.
No one wants to become addicted, but it can get better. Small steps, one day at a time. This is the foundation of creating healthy habits. A few months from now, you will be proud of the person you’ve become.
Services are individualized, with each patient being a significant treatment team member. We guide patients to optimize the best care, serving as their foundation for the greatest potential for their success.
We strive to move the process along quickly. For some, motivation may be lost if the wait between asking and receiving service is too long. We promise to work with each patient to create reasonable, attainable goals while providing supportive therapy and medication to see patients succeed even through challenging times.
Answer a few basic questions and give info to get the process started. Call us at (681) 247-2180.
Once the information is validated, we will call and schedule a mutually convenient appointment.
When possible, we try to arrange evaluations and the doctor’s appointment the same day.
