One of their programs is built for adult men, which usually means a separate group rather than the same room with a different label, and it is the only one named here.

They prescribe naltrexone, which means the medication side is handled here rather than referred out to somewhere else in Rochester.

8 other centers are within about 14 miles, the nearest of them a few streets away in Rochester.

Medicaid and most commercial plans include treatment, with different rules about what they approve. A center's billing office can often check a plan faster than the insurer's own line will. Ask whether the center bills your plan directly or expects you to claim it back afterward.
