Treatment Team
We believe a team approach is the most effective method to deliver quality
care. The treatment team is led by a Board certified MD/Addictionologist and
is made up of Certified Alcohol and Drug counselors. Each patient's needs
are assessed prior to starting treatment in order to assure proper placement
and address all recovery concerns. The treatment team offers not only their
clinical expertise and experience, but also their concern and compassion.
