Here, we don’t just treat symptoms; we transform lives. Begin your journey to a healthier, opiate-free future with us, where your safety, comfort, and long-term well-being are our top priorities.”
Embarking on your recovery journey begins with a simple step: contacting our Waismann Method office. Our compassionate admissions team is ready to assist you, guiding you through the initial stages of the treatment process. Whether you choose a brief phone call or an email exchange, this crucial first interaction allows Dr. Lowenstein, our distinguished medical director, to gain a deep understanding of your individual circumstances. This initial consultation is meticulously tailored, focusing on your unique needs, to ensure the most effective treatment approach for your path to recovery.
Let’s start by understanding that the Waismann Method’s success is essentially based on the results of your treatment. Consequently, to provide the best outcome, we first need to hear your story, understand your health needs, and answer all your questions. Additionally, the medical director needs to evaluate if we can provide you the treatment you want and, more importantly, the treatment you need. This conversation will provide you with treatment information, length of inpatient stay, and cost.
Individualized medicine, also known as personalized medicine, is the concept of prediction, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention- a combination of factors that harmonize the patient’s genetics, health, environment, and lifestyle. Individualized care offers new hope for those struggling with substance use because when treatment is adjusted to each patient, successful results are historically much more prominent.
Having one single protocol for different patients often yields disastrous results. Sadly enough, promises of overnight cures, or should we say miracles, have lately been used by less than legitimate medical professionals to mislead patients who are so desperately seeking hope. This practice is not just irresponsible and but also cruel. It is unfair to promise full recovery, especially in a brief period, because drug use can have a wide range of short- and long-term, direct and indirect effects. The extent of these effects depends on several factors, including the specific drug, other substances in-play, how they are taken, how much is taken, the individual’s metabolism, health history, current mental and physical state, and so many other factors.
