Piedmont Eastside Medical Center

They offer inpatient hospital, outpatient and detox. The practical difference is whether you sleep at home or at the center, and are 8 other centers inside 14 miles if neither suits.

They detox from alcohol, benzodiazepines, cocaine, methamphetamines and opioids. Coming off alcohol without medical supervision can be dangerous, which is why it matters that this is one of 1 places near Snellville that do it.

Veterans are one of the 10 groups they offer a dedicated program for.

The nearest other center is 6.3 miles away, in Lawrenceville, and there are 8 inside 14 miles.

They treat both, and the rest of what they are set up for is adult men, military families, pain management, past domestic violence, past sexual abuse, past trauma, pregnant/postpartum, service members and veterans.

They prescribe 2 medications: buprenorphine and naltrexone. What a provider actually stocks changes, so ask for the one you need by name before driving to Snellville.

Anything from a week to a year, depending on what is being treated and how. The stretch after the main program usually runs far longer than the program did, and it is the part people underestimate. Ask how many hours of treatment a day the length actually contains.

The choice is normally made on medical risk and on what home looks like, in that order. Intensive outpatient care at several hours a day is closer to a residential program than to a weekly appointment. Say plainly who else is in the house and what they are using, because it changes the answer.
