*Treatment Program*
INDUCTION: The goal of an induction is to help you transition off of opiods and comfortably induce (start) onto our opioid addiction treatment medicine called buprenorphine (Suboxone). At the first visit, you meet with a doctor and his treatment team, create an individualized treatment plan, and are induced on to the prescribed medication. Our staff also works to reduce the cost of the prescribed medication through insurance and other discount programs.
ACUTE STABILIZATION: Over the first week of treatment, the doctor will help you stabilize and become comfortable by optimizing the daily dosage of medication. Our doctors stay in constant contact through the week, monitoring the transition, and stabilizing your body on the proper dosage. Once you are stable and comfortable, you and your doctor can finalize your customized ongoing treatment plan.
MAINTENANCE: Medically-assisted treatment (MAT) can last from six (6) months to a lifetime depending on your addiction and long term goals. At New Beginnings, we continue to monitor and manage the medication on a weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly basis.
TAPERING: When you are ready to reduce the prescribed medication, we work with therapists and counselors to develop a taper program that will ensure a comfortable, successful completion of your medical treatment. Our philosophy is to carefully and slowly taper your medication to ensure stability and success.

THIS PLACE HAS BEEN PHENOMENAL IN EVERY SINGLE ASPECT ONE COULD THINK OF. I'M A PATIENT FOR OVER 3 YEARS. STARTING WITH DR SARMA.EVEN THOUGH THEIR ARE A FEW TO CHOOSE FROM. DR SARMA IS JUST WHAT PEOPLE NEED WHO NEED TO FEEL CARED FOR AND LIKE THEIR NOT ALONE. DR SARMA HAS MOST CERTAINLY BEEN DETRIMENTAL IN MY ABILITY TO KEEP A CLEAN,HEALTHY, LIFE. WITHOUT HIM. I MOST CERTAINLY WOULD HAVE BEEN ON MY 3RD RELAPSE SINCE STARTING WITH NEW BEGINNINGS 3 YEARS AGO. NO JUDGING, NO CRITICISM,JUST AN ENTIRE OFFICE WHO WANT TO HELP THEIR PATIENTS LIVE A GOOD LIFE. JEN, THE SECRETARY, MY HERO. SHE WORKS VERY HARD BUT IT'S ALL TO ENSURE EACH PATIENT IS THOROUGHLY CARED FOR AND HAS ALL OF THEIR MEDS AND WHATEVER ELSE THEY MAY NEED. THEY HAVE THEIR OWN LAB ROOM. CONVENIENT, AND SIMPLE. ALSO, ANOTHER WONDERFUL PART OF THE TEAM THERE. SHE'S AMAZING AND GENTLE. IF YOUR LOOKING FOR AN OFFICE TO JUST GIVE YOU MEDS AND SEND YOU AWAY. THINK AGAIN. THEY WANT TO ENSURE YOUR OK BEFORE YOU LEAVE THEIR OFFICE. ALL WHILE MAKING "EXCELLENT" TIME FOR EACH VISIT. BE HONEST WITH THEM. THEY CAN'T HELP YOU IF YOUR NOT. I'VE BEEN THROUGH THE RECOVERY PROCESS 2 TIMES BEFORE. IN 3 YEARS NOW. I DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT MY LIFE PRIOR TO THIS TEAM. IF YOU TRULY WANT TO GET HELP. THIS IS THE BEST THERE IS. EVERYONE THERE IS FRIENDS. IT'S A GIANT CIRCLE OF TRUST AND A LOT OF FOLKS WHO KNOW WHAT YOUR UP AGAINST. THAT HELPS. I'VE NEVER GIVEN ANY OFFICE SUCH HIGH REGARD. THAT'S BECAUSE THEY DESERVE IT 😁. I HOPE YOU TEY THEM AND I KNOW YOU'LL LOVE THEM.

What is Suboxone and how does it work?

Suboxone is a prescription medication used to treat opioid dependence. It contains buprenorphine and naloxone, which work together to reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms while preventing misuse. It can be used for detoxification or as part of a long-term maintenance plan.

How long does Suboxone treatment last?

Treatment duration varies based on individual needs and goals. Some patients may require six months, while others benefit from long-term maintenance. We work closely with you to determine the best timeline for your recovery.

Is counseling included in the treatment program?

Yes. We believe in a holistic approach to recovery. Counseling and behavioral support are integrated into your treatment plan to address the emotional and psychological aspects of addiction.

Do you accept insurance?

We accept Medicare, Medicaid, most private insurance plans, and cash payments. Our staff can help you explore coverage options and discount programs to reduce medication costs.
