Front Door Health: prioritizing people over things

FDH Team • June 21, 2021
Traditional substance abuse treatment centers or “rehabs” invest in real estate, buildings and ever-more luxury amenities in an effort to acquire patients. Google “rehab” and you might think you searched, instead, for vacation packages or high-end “wellness” retreats. Unfortunately for consumers, medical treatment is not a destination or five-star chef-prepared meals or beach volleyball. Effective treatment is working with physicians and therapists delivering the best care science has to offer.
The single most important factor in determining the success of therapy is the quality of the relationship between the patient and therapist. So, while warm weather, kayaking and equine therapy sure sound nice, we’re not sure how relevant these things are to the task at hand – treating the medical problem of substance abuse.

Front Door Health has different priorities, we invest in people, not “things.” We provide a team of experts, led by a Board-Certified Addiction Psychiatrist, whose sole focus is on the individual patient. We focus exclusively on delivering care, we are not concerned with “filling beds” to service real estate debt, paying for facility upkeep or enticing patients to travel to what amount to luxury spas, only to return home days later to face the very problems they just left.  

Front Door Health cannot promise ocean views, surfing, golf or massage. We will, though, treat your substance-related problems with the seriousness they deserve. We will deliver a team of medical and behavioral experts, to your home, and provide personalized care using only what science has shown to be effective – one-on-one therapy, medication-assisted treatment, trauma-informed care and psychiatry.
