The important first step to recovery is recognizing that an addiction problem exists and that quick access to get help is available.

The drug dependency clinic is run by Dr Flynn who has experience in treating drug addiction and completed extensive postgraduate training to become a GP with special interest in chemical substance misuse (GPWSPI). He works with a fully qualified drug worker and in liaison with the local drug dependency unit. This link gives us access to rehab and detox clinics as well as counsellors and mental healthcare professionals such as addiction psychologists and psychiatry in the community.

The addiction clinic concentrates on problems with heroin, prescription drugs such as benzodiazepines as well as alcohol problems. After an in-depth assessment of the addiction problem we can offer a range of treatments:

• Opioid maintenance with methadone or subutex
• Subutex detox
• Benzodiazepine detox
• Slow reductions tailored to the individual
• Alcohol dependence treatment

Dr Flynn offers alcohol home detox in the community if appropriate and on the basis of an individual assessment.

The substance misuse clinic also identifies the many physical and social problems often associated with addiction and aims to provide the patient with tools and skills that encourage relapse prevention and a healthy life.

This service is for adults (aged 18+) experiencing problems such as stress, worry, depression or insomnia.
