Methadone clinics treating hundreds around area

“That number, however, skyrocketed in 2003 and 2004. We had to re-think and re-do our treatment approach. The outpatient treatment models we were using were not effective and so we had to take that into consideration and adapt our strategies”

Nearly three years after opening its methadone clinic, the Allegany County Health Department treats 70 to 75 patients. via Cumberland Times-News

My methadone clinic is a life saver for me. I am treated like a person not like a number like most clinics around the city

[Basillio]

Nice to see a clinic doing it right.

I wish we were all that lucky.

I agree with both of you guys. I'm actually glad to see this, as it's certainly not the case here.

its nice to hear people are getting the treament they need,but it takes so long to get in at the health department.There are other clinics in the area,but most are private pay,and for those of us needing immediate treatment,waiting lists are like a lifetime to get in.They need to make treatment available through insurance through West Virginia.

What do you need help getting off? Methadone? Or opiates? Let me know...I'll try and help you the best I can and if...I can't we'll find someone who can. Hang in there. I'm sure everything will be okay. People are a lot stronger then they think they are. Get back to me ASAP and we'll figure something out.
Love Lilly June
