FAIRLAWN, N.J., April 21, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Coleman Addiction Medicine, specialists in addiction treatment services, announced today the opening of a new medical practice in Fair Lawn, NJ. Conveniently located within 20 miles of Newark, NJ and Manhattan, Coleman offers expertise in the field of withdrawal management, or detoxification, services and support. Led by Medical Director Dr. Peter Coleman, creator of the Coleman Method, and Program Physician Dr. Ashraf Shaker, Coleman's addiction professionals are experts in their field. Coleman Addiction Medicine has entered into a management agreement with the Coleman Institute of America, a subsidiary of BayMark Health Services, for administrative support services.
The Coleman Addiction Medicine team will offer a full range of treatment services in the Fair Lawn office, including detoxification from alcohol and opioids. Outpatient, medically-supervised detox is supported by six months of ongoing naltrexone therapy and case management services to those seeking recovery in the Tri-State Area. The Coleman Method utilizes custom medications to reduce a patient's discomfort and move them safely through the process in as little as 3 days, getting them back to their lives free of drugs or alcohol.
Dr. Peter Coleman, founder and Medical Director for Coleman Addiction Medicine, shared, "As we work to bring evidence-based treatment to those in need, we look to areas such as New Jersey, where the death toll from drug overdose set a record for the 4th straight year in 2018. The need for Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) treatment continues to be massive, and our proven methods allow us to bring hope and freedom to those struggling with dependence on opiates or alcohol. In addition, the ongoing naltrexone therapy and case management support is a critical part of providing our patients the best opportunity to experience long-term recovery."
Coleman's withdrawal management service includes helping patients who have been using other medications, such as methadone or Suboxone®, and are ready for antagonist therapy, to transition to Medication-Assisted Treatment using the non-addictive opioid blocker Naltrexone. There are multiple evidence-based approaches for helping people struggling with addiction, and the Coleman Method focuses on getting patients off of addictive substances and getting them into long-term recovery.
