MATClinicsIOP Program in Dundalk, MD
Great to meet you
MATClinics is a medication-assisted treatment provider specializing in substance use disorders. They treat patients with alcohol use disorder, opioid use disorder, and stimulant use disorder. Treatment begins with an intake assessment where providers gather information and determine if the patient is a good fit for their protocol. Patients receive medication (such as buprenorphine/Suboxone for opioid use) along with clinical support. The initial phase involves weekly visits for stabilization and monitoring, typically transitioning to monthly maintenance visits once stable. MATClinics employs providers with extensive experience prescribing medications for substance use disorders. They collect urine samples at visits to inform treatment decisions and adhere to strict confidentiality regulations. The practice takes a non-judgmental approach, not discharging patients for relapse or continued use of illicit substances.
