Why it Works

At Solas Health, our goal is for patients to obtain a fulfilling, happy life.  We always take a non-judgmental and kind attitude towards patients with substance use disorder.   Recovery is a lifelong process.  Many of us have a personal or family history of the devastation that can be caused by addiction. Fortunately, treatment for substance use disorder is extremely effective. 

We are dedicated to bringing these highly effective treatments to patients at low cost and minimal inconvenience. We treat patients anywhere in North Carolina. Most patients will achieve good recovery and improved quality of life. Often this can be done with telemedicine visits, from the privacy of your own home.

At Solas Health, we know that a high percentage of success will result from a combination of medication, counseling, and community-based support groups. We understand individuals are different, and the same plan of care will not be appropriate for everyone. For this reason, patients are encouraged to choose from a wide variety of treatments. We encourage patients to develop their own spiritual program of recovery. Good choices include involvement in 12 step programs, church groups, yoga, and the patient’s own understanding of what recovery will mean for them.

Up to 92% Success for Long-Term MAT and Counseling⁺

Addiction is universally considered a disease and science and medical research has shown us that by utilizing medication assisted treatment (MAT) in conjunction with counseling and support groups, there is up to a 92% chance of successful long-term recovery⁺.

We integrate medication into our program, when appropriate.  These medications help reduce craving and improve success rates. Some examples are:

• Buprenorphine (Suboxone, Subutex, Sublocade)
• Naltrexone (Vivitrol and ReVia)

Addiction is a disease that needs medical treatment. We’ve seen people get better for over twenty years. Our founder has achieved recovery himself and our philosophy is that you deserve our help to get better, no matter what happens.

We provide compassion, personal attention, and ‘follow through.’ Our process is designed to help you really change. Our staff cares and wants to see you succeed. We offer a multidisciplinary approach to improve the quality of your life immediately. From medication to counseling, we will use every tool at our disposal to help you recover.

Retention in Treatment

You move from more intensive (frequent) appointments to less intensive as your recovery progresses, but if there’s a relapse or a setback, we will work with you to get back on track. Continuing treatment through a potential setback (like a relapse) is the key principle that led to the highest long-term success rates.
