United Gardens Clinic (UGC) provides the first new model of treatment in 40 years, offering highly structured exit support programs. We endorse both pharmacotherapy and abstinence models in our treatment.
Access to a prescriber is available mostly every Thursday and Friday.
UGC has been operating for over four decades, providing a high-quality service from our experienced team of doctors, nurses, a psychologist, pharmacists, and counselors.
We offer a drug substitution program using methadone, (biodone) buprenorphine, suboxone and buividal. These medications hold you for longer than heroin. This means that once you are stable on your daily dose, through maintenance and harm minimisation you are able to do much more. These treatments are legal and affordable - allowing you to break the destructive habits of addiction.
At UGC we believe:
Addiction is a chronic relapsing condition that requires long-term intensive support and different modalities.
We can support people anywhere they are on their journey.
We are compassionate and kind. We do not punish people for being addicts, but always attempt to support them. We help them access treatment options that will best work for them. Regardless of where the individual is on the stability-to-abstinence paradigm, we believe they deserve a complete client-centered treatment model.
UGC is a fully accredited service having attained the highest levels of recognition in the area through Quality Innovation Performance Limited.
