Our main focus is to assist people in achieving their goals and leading a normal life.

A majority of people start out using pain medication prescribed by a physician in an effort to address real pain. Unfortunately, for some individuals, more and more medication is needed to relieve the pain. After a prolonged period of time, the chemistry in our brains begin to adapt to the medication. This leads to the need for more and more opiate medication to achieve the feeling of normalcy. The majority of individuals who are dependent on opiates are unable to stop on their own.

North Fulton Treatment Center offers medication-assisted treatment as an option for people who have tried to quit on their own. Our program is also for those who have tried an inpatient program and have been unsuccessful. Opiate addiction is a brain disease. Thus, an individual’s dependency on opiates is not something to be ashamed of. Dependency does not discriminate, but it can be addressed. At North Fulton Treatment Center, individuals are able to lead a normal, drug-free life.
