FAST MD 4 YOU NEWS

Opioid addiction continues to be an epidemic nationwide. Those seeking treatment have limited options, and many are even waitlisted due to scarce local resources. In an effort to help patients in their communities receive timely care for their addiction, and to begin their recovery, Fast MD is adding MAT to their services. The treatment will be piloted at their Suwanee, Georgia location with the potential for future program expansion.

MAT is a critical tool in the battle against addiction. Timely treatment is essential for recovery and with few options, this has become increasingly challenging. By introducing MAT into the urgent care environment, treatment availability increases, allowing for more patients to be treated sooner. Although appointments will be required for MAT, the convenient hours provide greater flexibility for patients seeking treatment.

“Our urgent care model is designed to respond to the medical needs of our communities. We understand that there is a dire need for treatment options and we want to do our part to help,” said Dr. AJ Gupta, Chief Medical Officer at Fast MD 4 You. “We believe that by adding Medication Assisted Treatment to our available services, we help our patients find a solution to what we know is a very difficult medical and community crisis”.

FAST MD 4 You Urgent Care will continue to provide their exceptional walk-in medical services to patients of 10 and above for acute conditions that are not life threatening.  For these visits, no appointment is necessary.

Patients are encouraged to reach out for more information on Suboxone MAT treatment by calling the Suwanee location directly at (470) 424-8888.
