Center for Addictive Problems – Chicago

Great clinic

A true master class of what MAT program should be, from the amazing Stephanie who you can find dutifully behind the front desk, doing so much for the clients that without her hard work dealing with insurance companies,… insuring transportation etc Many people myself included would not have been able to utilize this fantastic place of healing. Furthermore the Director Margo Brooks can not be given enough credit for the way she ensures a place that is conducive to the healing taking place and the humanizing of folks that more often then not have been let down by less Impressive institutions such. I owe my life and sanity to these great people. And that is to say nothing of the 5 star nursing staff. God bless these fine upstanding people and the hard and often thankless job they do. So this comes from the bottom of my heart and I'm sure I speak for many others when finally giving you the just thanks you so rightfully deserve now. If ever I needed to recommend anyone to get treatment I always have an extra CAP business card in my wallet, they are that good and so much better at what they do from others in their field. That is a firsthand truth.

This hands down is the best clinic in Chgo. I have been to several different clinics through the years and this clinic seems to be the one that is working for me. I have been able to maintain my sobriety here.… Counselors are great hours are convenient Nurses are super cool and I've never really had a long wait to get medicated. Love it here

Could be better, could be worse

Place was great guess dosing cause my luggage was takin on the greyhound and staff did absolutely everything they could as quick and efficiently as possible

I was just guest dosing at this clinic and I loved it. It was very quick to get me processed in and dosed. All the staff were super nice, answered all my questions, and the have a ton of information pamphlets about… MAT/MMT, HEP C, HIV, & Methadone during pregnancy. They were also the easiest clinic in town to get answers about guest dosing. I called several others before this and they kept transferring me to different people they claimed "would know more" and I had to leave messages at a few and never got calls back. So if you looking for an attentive clinic with friendly staff & positive atmosphere, I'd go with CAP. I'm giving it 5stars. P.s. I've guest dosed in several other counties: Aiken (North Augusta), Nashville, and Columbia and again, this was the fastest clinic to get me registered and dosed.

I have been here for a long time and I wouldn't change to no other place they treat you with respect and they don't judge no one. The nurse's are friendly and i have had my Counselor for over 10 years and she is… amazing, Linda you are the best.

I really liked this place. I’ve been to a few clinics and this is by far the best. My councilor was friendly and knowledge. The wait time is always short and the place is clean. I wish they offered more services, like… groups.

The counselor here are very helpful and friendly

🖤💙🖤Amazingly friendly and helpful non-judgemental counselors. 🖤💚🖤

CAP consistently plays with your money. On Jan. 8 2016 I paid $240 on a 0 balance. Two weeks later I paid another $240 (1 month), two weeks later I paid $240 which was Feb 7. I was on two week pickup. I was required to… pay $120 every two weeks. I had 15 receipts showing a zero balance or showing paying early. April 1 my counselor, Joe, refused to look at account and said I did not pay since February so I had to pay $240. I owned zero until April 6 when I would owe 2 weeks. I gave him a check for two weeks and he would not give me my two week pickup. Terrycloth Bering the former junkie who is clinic director went back two years and added April like I did not pay for it and said I owe 112 for some odd reason. I was in the hospital for 12 days and went to program when I was released from hospital with 3 bottles from before I went into HOSPITAL. CAP put new labels over the three bottles that were sealed by hospital and gave them back to me and charged me $60 for readministering bottles from previous two weeks. CAP is all about money. CAP never suggested or tried to help me detox. I left CAP and went to a program that was able to detox me from 225mg to 30mg in 6 months. I was on CAP for 25 years. My fault. I will swear to Terrycloth Bering changing account and saying the counselor, Joe, was correct in not checking my account from Jan.8th to Feb 3rd to see I had paid extra. DO NOT pay anything in advance. I did not believe patients who claimed they were paid on time and extorted extra money to get their medication. Believe or not, it is up to uou. If you have an alternative DO NOT use CAP. The founding doctor is now serving time in Sandstone federal prison. STAY AWAY.

I went there in the early eighties. They literally saved my life. I now live in a fine house (paid off the mortgage this year). The man who founded this clinic was the most compassionate Dr. I've known to date. I… haven't been there in decades. I've heard it's changed some things are better but not as liberal as it was when I was there. Now my best friend is still there, and he is STILL GRATEFUL !

Ive been here for 2 years. Ive never had a problem. Ive even carried balances as high as $300. I always end up paying them off but I think with them it's always better let them know earlier. They've been great to me.… Always friendly and respectful.

I've been coming here on and off for the past 10 years. For the past three years, I've come to them for a bupe prescription. I explained to the doctor that I was going to be in between jobs and insurances and that I… would have to make one months prescription last until I had the funds to get my next, and have my new insurance in place. I called them up after 2 months and they tell me they discharged me a couple days ago. They want me to pay another $400 to be reinstated. I explained I didn't have that much money and asked them if they could do remove that fee considering I informed my doctor I would be stretching my dose and also the fact that they JUST went ahead and discharged me a 3 days ago, I wouldn't of had to pay double the fee but they said "that's all we can do for you". How comforting. I suppose they don't want to help people, they just care about getting their money. I always came back here because it was the only doctor I've been to for this, it was convenient and close to my job, but if they can't be there for me when I need them the most, I will just stop going to them. I'll simply find a new doctor. All they had to do was be understanding of a situation that I well informed them of. I refuse to give my money to a doctor that cares nothing about my well being. They aren't concerned about anything else. This one time fee, that they refused to waive will cost them more than it will me. They don't think anything of the fact that if they would look into what they "can do for me" I would still be a patient, giving them that $250 every month. I have a lifetime battle so it's their loss. I will gladly take my money elsewhere. In addition, I will have to redo the process of locating a new doctor with no notice, no meds and full withdrawal that includes physical illness, serious anxiety that lead to mental breakdowns for me. I suggest anyone else that needs real treatment find a program that cares.
