Addiction Recovery Systems

Addiction Recovery Systems (ARS) is a specialized outpatient provider offering medication-assisted treatment at ten locations across the mid-Atlantic region. Since 2004, ARS has served over 3,300 clients annually, helping individuals recover from substance use disorders including opioid addiction and methadone management. The team includes physicians, nurse practitioners, registered and licensed nurses, licensed and certified counselors, and clinical social workers. ARS emphasizes a personalized approach with flexible individual and group sessions, convenient early morning hours, and brief medication visits averaging less than 10 minutes. The organization operates under a harm reduction philosophy, recognizing that recovery is a partnership between client and healthcare professional and that abstinence, while ideal, may be a long-term goal.
