About Private Clinic North
Private Clinic North operates as a SAMHSA-recognized Opioid Treatment Program in Rossville, Georgia, just south of the Tennessee border. The facility holds CARF accreditation and describes its mission as providing ‘an individualized, comprehensive, affordable Opiate Treatment Program’ that helps patients live a ‘normal drug-free life.’ This is not a detox or residential program; it is a structured outpatient clinic centered on methadone maintenance therapy and supportive counseling.
Clinical services follow the standard OTP model: daily or near-daily medication dosing combined with required individual counseling. According to the clinic, one-on-one counseling is required of all patients in opiate treatment, with counselors assigned based on each patient’s specific needs. Medical staff are supervised by a Medical Director, and the program is built around what the clinic publicly describes as a service-, integrity-, dignity-, and excellence-driven culture.
Access is one of the clinic’s distinguishing features. Dosing hours run early in the morning (5:30 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. weekdays, with shorter Saturday hours), and the clinic has explicitly added an evening clinic from 2:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. This makes treatment realistic for clients who work first or second shift and would otherwise struggle to attend a traditional 9-to-5 OTP. Populations explicitly served include adults across genders, pregnant women, and veterans.
For people in north Georgia, Chattanooga’s southern outskirts, and the surrounding rural counties, Private Clinic North functions as a longstanding methadone-focused option for opioid use disorder. Specific payer questions, pregnancy protocols, and intake steps should be verified by phone, but the clinic publicly emphasizes that ‘addiction does not discriminate’ and offers free initial assessments Monday through Friday.
