Suboxone treatment Dr. Martini is certified to treat patients for opiate dependence using either Suboxone or Subutex. There are two goals of treatment: Detoxification from opiates Maintenance on an opiate alternative
Detoxification from opiates using Suboxone helps patients avoid painful withdrawal symptoms while trying to regain control of their life and "kick the habit." Maintaining a patient on Suboxone or Subutex is a substitute for Methadone and the need for being in a Methadone Clinic. This option is suitable when a patient has tried repeatedly to stop using without success, to prevent future relapses to opiates. If you need help with opiate dependence treatment please call our office. Usually we can accommodate new patients within couple of days up to a week. Most of the time you will be required to pay at the time of service (we do accept credit cards). If you have insurance that covers this form of treatment, your payment will either be refunded to you, or will be added as credit towards future co-pays.
