What Is Primary & Recovery Care?

Primary care for people in recovery looks different than standard primary care. It means knowing your history, understanding the medications that aren’t safe for you, and treating your physical health as part of your long-term sobriety, not separate from it.

Rather than replacing one substance with another, our primary care providers focus on whole-person wellness through targeted, non-addictive medical support.

KEY POINTS
  • Recovery-aware medical care
  • Non-narcotic prescribing practices
  • Coordinated mental health support
  • Long-term partnership with your care team

WHEN IT IS USED

Primary and recovery care fits into many points in a patient’s journey. Here’s when it’s the right step.

After Stabilization
For patients transitioning out of inpatient care who need continued medical support during early recovery.
Ongoing Recovery Support
For people in long-term recovery who want a primary care provider who understands their history.
Preventative Care
For routine physicals, screenings, and chronic condition management with non-narcotic prescribing.
Co-occurring Conditions
For patients managing health conditions related to past substance use, like liver, cardiac, or GI concerns

From your first visit through ongoing care, we’ll partner with you to build a health plan that supports your recovery for the long run.
