About St Petersburg Metro Treatment Center Metro Treatment of Florida LP

St. Petersburg Metro Treatment Center — operating as Metro Treatment of Florida LP and part of the New Season network — is located at 1919 North Pinellas Avenue (Highway 19) in Tarpon Springs, Florida. Certified as an Opioid Treatment Program (OTP) and accredited by CARF, the center is structured specifically around the treatment of opioid use disorder and opioid addiction, distinguishing it from general-purpose behavioral health facilities in Pinellas County.

The center provides two primary levels of care: medical detox and an outpatient program. The medical detox component addresses the physical withdrawal process under clinical oversight, while the outpatient program allows patients to continue treatment while living at home. This combination gives individuals options depending on the severity of their opioid dependence and their personal circumstances.

Treatment at this facility is built around medication-assisted treatment (MAT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and counseling. A notable operational feature is the mobile medication unit, which extends medication access beyond the clinic walls, alongside take-home medication privileges for eligible patients. The Engage Mobile App and telehealth care further support continuity of treatment for enrolled patients, and primary care services are also available on-site.

The center serves men, women, and individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing, with services delivered in English. Payment is accepted through Medicaid, Medicare, private insurance, TRICARE, and self-pay or cash arrangements. The clinic operates six days a week with early morning hours — opening at 5:00 AM on weekdays — a schedule designed to accommodate patients who work or have daytime obligations.

Medical Detox and Opioid Treatment in Tarpon Springs, FL

St. Petersburg Metro Treatment Center provides medical detox as a primary level of care for individuals dealing with opioid use disorder and opioid addiction. Structured as a certified Opioid Treatment Program (OTP), the facility is designed specifically to manage the clinical demands of opioid withdrawal and ongoing opioid dependence — not as a general rehab, but as a specialized treatment site with a defined scope of care.

CARF accreditation signals that the center has met independently reviewed standards for treatment quality. Located in Tarpon Springs on Highway 19, it serves patients across Pinellas County who need a structured, medically oriented starting point for opioid treatment. The clinic's early operating hours — 5:00 AM Monday through Friday — reflect the operational reality of a program built around daily medication administration and patient access.

Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) and Outpatient Program

Beyond medical detox, the center offers an outpatient program that allows patients to remain in their communities while receiving ongoing opioid treatment. Medication-assisted treatment is central to both levels of care, pairing FDA-approved pharmacological support with cognitive behavioral therapy and counseling to address both the physical and behavioral dimensions of opioid use disorder.

The facility's mobile medication unit and take-home medication options set it apart from clinics that require daily in-person visits indefinitely. Patients who qualify for take-home doses gain greater flexibility, while the mobile unit extends the program's reach for those with transportation or mobility challenges. Telehealth services and the Engage Mobile App further support patients between clinic visits, creating a more continuous treatment experience.

Payment Options and Who Is Served

St. Petersburg Metro Treatment Center accepts a broad range of payment sources, including Medicaid, Medicare, TRICARE, private insurance, and self-pay or cash. This payment mix makes opioid detox and treatment accessible to a wider range of patients — including veterans covered by TRICARE and individuals enrolled in public insurance programs.

The program serves men and women, and is equipped to serve individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing. Services are provided in English. For anyone weighing same-day or short-notice entry into an opioid treatment program in the Tarpon Springs area, the center's early clinic hours and multiple care modalities make it a practical option to contact directly at (727) 888-4752.

Primary Care Services and Supplemental Support

In addition to its core detox and outpatient treatment services, the center offers primary care services on-site — a feature that matters for patients whose opioid use disorder coexists with untreated general health conditions. Having primary care available within the same program reduces the logistical burden of coordinating care across multiple providers during an already demanding treatment period.

The Engage Mobile App provides patients with a digital connection to their treatment, supporting engagement between scheduled clinic visits. Combined with telehealth care access, these tools reflect a program that recognizes treatment doesn't stop when a patient leaves the building. For a center operating with morning-only hours, these supplemental supports help maintain continuity throughout the day and week.
