BHG Franklin Treatment Center

About BHG Franklin Treatment Center

BHG Franklin Treatment Center is an outpatient opioid treatment clinic in Franklin, Virginia, serving Franklin, Suffolk, Courtland, and the wider Southampton County area. Part of the national BHG network, they treat opioid use disorder, including addiction to fentanyl, heroin, and prescription painkillers. Their approach pairs FDA-approved medications with counseling and practical support, so patients can stay in treatment while living at home and keeping up with work, school, or family. They accept Medicaid, Medicare, most commercial insurance, and self-pay, and same-day or next-day appointments are often available for new patients, returning patients, and transfers.

Medication options include daily methadone through their opioid treatment program, buprenorphine such as Suboxone given in-clinic or by prescription, weekly or monthly extended-release buprenorphine injections like Sublocade and Brixadi, and naltrexone (Vivitrol) for those who prefer an opioid-blocking option. Patients also meet with licensed counselors one-on-one and in groups, and peer support specialists with lived recovery experience help them stay engaged. Case management, health assessments, lab monitoring, and telehealth address medical and everyday needs, and eligible patients may receive take-home doses. The first visit usually takes two to three hours and includes an intake assessment, a physical exam, and a personalized plan, with medication often starting that same day. If a relapse happens, the team adjusts counseling and medication rather than treating it as failure.
