Your Future Solutions Today!

The focus of Progressive Medical Specialists is to treat all patients as individuals, with respect and dignity. Our mission is to provide high quality, comprehensive treatment to opiate addicted individuals using methadone or buprenorphine replacement therapy.

We, at Progressive Medical Specialists understand that drug addiction is a complex but treatable brain disease and that no single approach is right for everyone. We provide individualized medication management tailored to the patient’s specific needs. In this environment patients are able to receive the proper medication level that is right for them. This allows the patient to eliminate the physical component of addiction that prevents them from being able to function positively. Individual counseling is provided to assist the patient in becoming and remaining a productive member of the community.

Our experienced team of physicians, certified counselors and licensed nurses provide a compassionate and understanding environment to allow each patient to be treated as an individual.

We are located conveniently on El Cajon Blvd in San Diego, California. We can be contacted 24 hours 7 days a week by calling 619-286-4600.
