About Community Health of South Florida Administration/Doris Ison Clinic
Community Health of South Florida (CHI) operates the Doris Ison Clinic at 10300 SW 216th Street in Miami as the administrative hub and largest patient site in its 13-center network. Substance use treatment here is integrated into a broader Federally Qualified Health Center mission rather than offered as a standalone rehab program, which means a patient entering for an opioid or alcohol concern sits within the same record system as the clinic’s pediatric, dental, vision, and primary care lines.
Clinical services include medical detox and three tiers of outpatient programming, anchored by cognitive behavioral therapy and individual treatment planning. Co-occurring disorders, including substance use paired with depression, anxiety, or PTSD, are addressed by behavioral health providers within the integrated care model, so a patient does not have to be referred outside the building to begin mental health treatment.
Quality is verified by Joint Commission (JCAHO) accreditation, and CHI’s executive leadership, including Dr. Henri Ford in featured leadership coverage and Dr. Tanya Roman in regional media appearances on NBC6 and Telemundo, reflects an academic and clinical bench at the parent organization. Telehealth is available, language access spans English and French, and the clinic explicitly serves deaf and hard-of-hearing patients.
Financial accessibility is part of the FQHC mandate: CHI accepts Medicaid, Medicare, TRICARE, state insurance, and private insurance, with a sliding-scale fee for uninsured patients and direct financial assistance pathways. Self-pay and cash are also accepted. The Doris Ison location is reachable at 305-253-5100 around the clock and 305-252-4820 during business hours, with appointments bookable online for primary care and walk-in availability for urgent needs.
