| Covington, Kentucky | Covington Metro Treatment Center is located in suburban Covington, Kentucky. It's part of New Season's national network for treating opioid use disorder (OUD), substance abuse, and mental health. This is an office setting and provides medication assisted treatment (MAT), which is a treatment that combines behavioral therapy and FDA-approved methado | Treatments Programs Payment Options | Love the place and staff!! Great people with great insight and eager to get you where you need to be in life to help you during your stride for that cleaner healthier lifestyle as well as mind, body and soul. I’m still attending and love them greatly. Chelsea is by far the best counselor there, but there are plenty of great ones! ,.. Thank you to you all!! Shaun Spencer 1 year ago If you need help with opiod addiction then this is the place to go and recieve the best health care and counseling!!This place saved my life period! Bonnie Walters 2 years ago My review would be 5 stars but today I was on my way to see my new counselor and pick up my weekly takehomes beforehand because I was told I could do that, they have bounced me around to several counselors for no reason. I had an appointment at noon and was under impression I could pick my meds up beforehand. But I guess I was supposed to come before twelve is what my new counselor said she told me. Difference of opinion but really my main reason for 2 stars is because I arrived at 12:11 and had my counselor let them know beforehand exactly what time id get there. So I just feel like the 2 nurses that were there , that one could of left their window open for me. I also understand that I should know dosing hours after a year, but since I come so early I had no need to learn them. I was so upset I had tears. I'm over it now but having to skip a dose today seems unjust. I already work 3rd shift and literally had to stay up to come to that noon appointment w new counselor. Because y'all have so many quit. I went from Andrea to Brent to Daniella and have to work around their schedules constantly.
P.S. I've been attending for a year now , never been late, I always arrive between 6-8 am. I'm always respectful, so honestly it's very upsetting that I was turned away when I never bother anyone for anything. Thank you.
Updating my review. The director kindly explained to me the situation and that's all I wanted. Thank you Kelly. Anthony Brown 2 years ago |   | 
| Covington, Kentucky | NKY Med Clinic is part of Pinnacle Treatment Centers and this is one of their outpatient clinic locations. The clinic is on Madison Avenue in Covington, Kentucky and is CARF-accredited. They offer comprehensive support for opioid use and co-occurring disorders. Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) and therapy are the core treatment services.  They a | Treatments Programs Payment Options | Great overall clinic to help you get clean. NKY med has a pretty relaxed atmosphere, as long as your following the rules. 😉 If your serious about getting clean, it's a good place to help you get there. My counselor has been extremely helpful and understanding. I've been lucky and have had the same counselor since I started, but unfortunately that's not everyone's experience. Counselors get better jobs and move on. I've got experience at both here and at East Indiana (EICT), and I will say I like NKY med better, but it's been years since I went to EITC so they may have improved. If you're ready to make serious life improvements, then consider NKY med. I highly recommend them and have personally made serious gains and improvements in my life. Take back control in your life and end the rat race of buying drugs everyday, always scraping to get buy. Ryan B 8 months ago As an outside perspective from someone that regularly coordinates care for mutual patients, I have seen firsthand the profound positive impact this facility has on the lives of its clients. The center's commitment to providing evidence-based care and individualized treatment plans has been a key factor in our success with mutual patient. The team of dedicated professionals—ranging from staff like Alyssa to medical staff demonstrates a deep understanding of the challenges individuals face, and working tirelessly to support their patients recovery.
When the opportunities arise of providing recommendations for where patients can go to receive treatment for opioid addiction, NKY MED is always at the top of the list and the first treatment center I would recommend/suggest in the Cincinnati tri state area. Kylie Norberg 10 months ago An amazing company culture that has a strong focus on employee growth, well-being and patient focus/care.

Such a positive, funny, and poignant message. Big Thanks to The Ridge for an incredible event! ❤️ Maralee Viox 1 month ago Calling treatment centers to explore options for a loved one was really overwhelming for me, but my family knew a must-have of any treatment program our loved one admitted into was a strong family education and support component. The Ridge made the information-gathering process so smooth and so reassuring. The staff answered every question we had, every question our loved one had, and they set us all up with support all the way around, right from the start. From drop-off and intake all the way through to discharge, The Ridge’s team was incredible. Their patience and guidance to / for my family throughout the entire process was truly invaluable. We feel a new level of confidence in our communication with and support of our loved one, as well as an entirely new understanding of the disease of addiction, that we know will set us up for success moving forward.
I don’t have words for the amount of gratitude my family and I have for The Ridge. Our loved one’s treatment process and newfound sobriety - along with their commitment and dedication to staying sober - would be enough in and of itself, but the rest of us had a life-changing experience as well. We learned so much, have knowledge and education around addiction that we didn’t have before, and have found an amazing community of people we’re so lucky to have found. I cannot recommend The Ridge more highly or more strongly for family members seeking treatment for their loved one’s addiction.
