Why Soddy-Daisy Patients Start Treatment at Restoration Recovery
Outpatient medication-assisted treatment is the largest and most-evidence-backed lane of addiction care in the country. For the overwhelming majority of patients with opioid or alcohol use disorder, it's the right place to start — and for most of our patients, it's where treatment ends up, too. Here's what starting at our Soddy-Daisy clinic looks like in practice.
Same-week appointments on Monday and Wednesday
The Soddy-Daisy clinic runs Monday and Wednesday from 9:00 am to 4:30 pm, and most patients are seen within the same week they call. No six-week waitlists, no endless phone tag. Your first visit is a 60-to-120-minute evaluation with intake, counseling, and a doctor — and if clinically appropriate, a same-day Suboxone prescription. If a Monday or Wednesday slot doesn't fit your schedule, our Chattanooga flagship 15 minutes south runs Monday through Friday under the same phone number and same medical record.
Keep your job, your family, your home
Outpatient MAT is built around the life you already have — not the life you'd need to pause to get care. You come in for the first visit (one half-day), leave with a prescription, and follow-ups are 15 to 30 minutes each. Most patients never miss more than a few hours of work, and most follow-ups can be done by telehealth after the first in-person visit — which means one trip to Walmart Drive for most months, not a standing weekly drive.
Evidence-based medications for opioid and alcohol use disorder
At our Soddy-Daisy clinic we prescribe Suboxone (daily film or tablet for opioid use disorder) and Acamprosate (daily oral for alcohol abstinence). Your provider picks the medication that fits your clinical picture and your life — not a one-size-fits-all protocol. Soddy-Daisy does not offer injection services. Patients whose clinical picture calls for Vivitrol (monthly injection for alcohol use disorder), Sublocade (once-monthly extended-release buprenorphine injection), or Brixadi (weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly extended-release buprenorphine injection) can access them at our Chattanooga flagship 15 minutes south on the same medical record, or at our Cleveland and Ringgold clinics.
Individual counseling and peer support on site
Individual counseling and certified peer support specialists are available alongside every treatment plan at Soddy-Daisy. For patients who need a structured intensive outpatient program, our IOP runs at our Chattanooga clinic 15 minutes south on Shallowford Road — same phone, same patient record, so stepping into a higher-intensity schedule for a few months and back out again is seamless.
Telehealth follow-ups after your first visit
After the initial in-person evaluation, many follow-up appointments can be done via secure HIPAA-compliant telehealth from your phone, tablet, or computer. For patients in Sale Creek, Dayton, Pikeville, Birchwood, or anywhere up the Hwy 27 corridor, this is usually the deciding factor — treatment that integrates into the week you already have, not one that rebuilds your schedule around a long drive.
TennCare and most commercial insurance accepted
We accept TennCare (BlueCare is Hamilton County’s dominant MCO), Medicaid, BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee, Cigna, Aetna, Ambetter, UnitedHealthcare, Tricare, and most major commercial plans. Most patients pay little to nothing out of pocket for MAT. Verify your coverage before your first visit or call us to check.
Restoration Recovery is enrolled in TennCare’s BESMART program, which removes prior-authorization delays for preferred buprenorphine products and supports same-day prescriptions for eligible TennCare members.
Four regional clinics — Soddy-Daisy covers the north
Soddy-Daisy is one of four Restoration Recovery clinics, running Monday and Wednesday to serve North Hamilton County, Rhea County, and the Sequatchie Valley edge. Our Chattanooga flagship at 6141 Shallowford Road is open Monday through Friday and adds Sublocade, Brixadi, Group IOP, and behavioral health. Our Cleveland, TN and Ringgold, GA clinics add regional coverage on other weekdays. Same patient, same medical record, same treatment plan across all four doors — call 423-498-2000 and we'll help you pick the clinic that fits your schedule and geography best.
