This is my second time visiting this "practice" and it will definitely be my last. It is a joke, at best. Both visits were a complete waste of time. The first visit, I went to get assistance with side effects of my meds and to establish care since I just bought a house and moved to the area. Tanissa Bailey barely looked at me and basically said I was fine because I'm young lol. I saw the mental health person that day as well. The silly "mental health specialist" literally did nothing and said she wasn't able to help with my side effects, and told me to change my diet instead. I grabbed my purse and walked out of the appointment to keep from doing something to that lady. I HATE for my time to be wasted. I contacted my old PCP and got the problem rectified within a few days. Against my better judgement, and wanting to give my fellow black women another chance, I scheduled another appointment with them to get medical clearance for an elective procedure. Again, Tanissa Bailey was helpless. She had some concerns that she didn't want to sign my medical clearance due to being a Nurse Practitioner, but I called my surgery group to check and see if she had authority to do so and they said it was no problem. I made her aware and she agreed to see me. Once I arrived, they checked my weight on a scale that is ALWAYS uncalibrated, my BP, and blood oxygen levels. After I was placed in the exam room, Ms. Underwood let me know that Ms. Bailey would not be seeing me after we already discussed the issues on the phone. Had I been aware that she wasn't comfortable doing the clearance, I could have gotten it done weeks ago elsewhere. I don't know why they would wait WEEKS until my appointment to tell me that they wouldn't do it. And had I flipped out on them, I would've been looked at like the bad guy. My time has been wasted, yet again and my surgery is scheduled for a little more than a month out. I don't know why the staff here is so daggone incompetent. They make simple visits a nightmare. Do better. The lack of understanding and professionalism is appalling. This is why I don't do second chances. Let the first impressions stick
Awesome place to go if you want to be without your medicine or a way to contact your provider for weeks at a time. Irresponsible and unresponsive practice.
The best staff for my asthma and mental. My Dr. Mrs. Stephanie R listen to me. And the staff can tell over the phone if my mental health starting to creep in. So I thank you all. I truly do just for listings. And providing great care.

Accepted Insurance
Peach State Health Plan
Other Forms of Payment
Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.
Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.
Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.
Addiction Treatments
Levels of Care
Outpatient Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.
Intervention Services A drug intervention in Georgia is designed to encourage an individual to get the treatment they need. This effort aims to break through resistance and motivate the individual to get help. The process typically involves loved ones sharing their concerns with the individual and how their substance use has affected those who care about them. A professional interventionist can help guide this conversation and explain from the clinical side how treatment can be beneficial.
Treatments
The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.
A quality drug rehab in Georgia can help you overcome addiction. This environment is designed to help you address the complex issues contributing to drug dependence. The goal of treatment is to give you the tools you need to make a full recovery.
Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.
Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.
Programs
Adult Program
Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.
Young Adult Program
Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.
Clinical Services
Cognitive Behavior Therapy
While each person is unique, the typical length for dialectical behavior therapy is six months to a year.

There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more.
