Providing Maintenance Treatment at its Best, Since 1976Heroin and opiate medication (pain pill) addiction can be quickly controlled and effectively treated at CAP clinics. Most patients feel understood and welcome from their first day, and after stabilizing on methadone stop abusing heroin or opiate medication. CAP clinics are licensed and accredited facilities specializing in the treatment of heroin and pharmaceutical opiate (pain pill) addiction with methadone maintenance and buprenorphine assisted treatment*

Our Medical Directors, of past and present, have received awards for excellence from patient advocate groups and addiction medicine professional organizations, both national and international. They were recognized not only for their respectful and effective treatment of addiction but also for their scientific research showing that heroin and opiate pain pill addiction can be stopped with methadone maintenance in almost all patients. CAP staff made this recognition possible. CAP’s professional counselors and nurses understand the variety and nature of the many difficulties faced by addicts, and enjoy being part of the recovery process for their patients.

“I have been coming to CAP for almost 7 years now and I have been able to stay clean from day one. The staff goes above and beyond for the patients and that is rare. My counselor Laurel is a fantastic woman, she is always there for me.” — David I.
