Act Addiction Centre Toronto

This is a medical centre with the sole purpose of treating opiate/​opioid addicts with methadone or suboxone.
This place is a little run down and rough but if it’s close to you, it’s a viable option rather than going downtown.
My experience with them is: I wanted to change my methadone doctor so I contacted this place and told them that I just wanted to talk with the doctors before joining to see what their philosophy was. I was told by reception that I could not do this and would not be allowed access to the doctors unless I transferred my files and joined. I don’t want to make a blind change, not knowing what kind of service I would get from the doctors, so I declined.
If you want to change family doctors, you can ‘interview’ the doctor before committing, but with these methadone doctors, you can’t do this. I think this is preposterous and disrespectful to addicts and people on methadone/​suboxone.
