If you’re searching for a same day MAT appointment, Nashville Addiction Clinic offers fast, safe, and convenient treatment to help men and women across Tennessee regain control over their lives. With the opioid crisis affecting thousands of people—including those in Nashville, Memphis, Chattanooga, Knoxville, and Clarksville—our clinic provides telemedicine medication-assisted treatment (TeleMAT) to eliminate cravings and prevent withdrawal without leaving your home.

Why Opioid Addiction Requires Immediate Attention

Opioid addiction is a serious medical condition. According to the DEA, opioid overdoses account for tens of thousands of deaths annually in the U.S., and Tennessee is no exception. Addiction can result from prescription painkillers like hydrocodone, oxycodone, or Tramadol, as well as illegal substances like heroin and fentanyl.

Risks include:

  • Overdose or death
  • Legal issues and employment challenges
  • Relationship strain and family instability
  • Mental health complications such as anxiety or depression

Our TeleMAT program helps reduce these risks by combining Suboxone treatment with counseling for long-term recovery.

What is a Same Day MAT Appointment?

A same day MAT appointment allows patients to start treatment immediately without waiting weeks for a clinic visit. Nashville Addiction Clinic has pioneered virtual MAT, meaning you never need to visit a clinic in person.

Benefits include:

  • Immediate access to Suboxone to prevent withdrawal
  • Telemedicine appointments from your home
  • Expert guidance from licensed physicians and master’s-level counselors
  • Flexible scheduling for those with work or family obligations
  • Treatment tailored to your specific opioid use history

You can register for virtual addiction treatment using commercial insurance, TennCare Medicaid, or self-pay.
