FAQs

What addictions do you treat?

We provide compassionate, evidence-based outpatient addiction treatment for alcohol use disorder, opioid dependence, prescription drug misuse, and other substance use disorders. Our approach treats addiction as a medical condition — not a moral failing.

What is OBAT (Office-Based Addiction Treatment)?

OBAT is a proven approach to treating substance use disorders, particularly opioid addiction, in a private, outpatient office setting. Rather than requiring patients to attend a specialized clinic, OBAT allows treatment to be incorporated into your regular healthcare visits — reducing stigma and improving access to care.

What is MAT (Medication-Assisted Treatment)?

MAT combines FDA-approved medications with counseling and behavioral therapies to treat substance use disorders. It is one of the most effective evidence-based treatments available for opioid and alcohol dependence and significantly reduces the risk of relapse and overdose.

What medications are used in MAT?

Depending on your condition and clinical evaluation, FDA-approved medications such as buprenorphine/naloxone (Suboxone) or naltrexone may be prescribed. Our physicians carefully monitor all medication use as part of a comprehensive care plan.

Is addiction treatment confidential?

Yes. Patient privacy is a top priority. All addiction treatment records are protected under both HIPAA and federal substance use disorder confidentiality laws (42 CFR Part 2), which provide even stronger privacy protections than standard medical records.

Does MAT include counseling?

Yes. Behavioral therapy and counseling are integral parts of our MAT program. Addressing the psychological and behavioral components of addiction alongside medication gives patients the strongest possible foundation for lasting recovery.

I had a great experience at this clinic. The front desk staff were organized and kind, and the doctor took time to explain my treatment options clearly without rushing me. Appointments were on time, the office was clean, and follow-up communication was excellent. I felt listened to and respected throughout the process. I’d definitely recommend this practice to anyone looking for attentive and professional care

I've received consistent care for over a year from Gold Standard and am thankful for the services they provide and ease of scheduling that works with my schedule. They were also able to help out a relative of mine, which I'm incredibly thankful for! Definitely give them a call if you're in need of therapy/psychiatric services. Unlike other doctors I have seen, there are no issues with scheduling appointments, even if you accidentally miss an appointment or are unable to make it.

My visit today was very helpful respectful the staff at the front desk "Yen" was very pleasant she took the time to go over the paperwork that I needed to sign
The only thing I would say is that when I was in the session the other staff members came in and interrupted our session so if we can figure a better solution that's the only concern I had other than that the place is clean and smell very calming 💓🙌🏾
