Outpatient Addiction Recovery Services

About Outpatient Addiction Recovery Services

Outpatient Addiction Recovery Services (OARS) is an outpatient medication-assisted treatment practice in Aliquippa, Pennsylvania, and one of several offices they operate across western Pennsylvania. They treat addiction as a chronic medical condition, managing it much like diabetes or heart disease and folding recovery into routine primary healthcare without judgment. Opioid use disorder is their core focus, but they also evaluate and treat alcohol, cannabis, stimulant, sedative, hallucinogen, inhalant, and tobacco use disorders, along with gambling disorder and dependence on kratom and 7-OH. New patients can usually be seen within 24 hours.

A cornerstone of their opioid care is the once-a-month buprenorphine injection (Sublocade or Brixadi), which can often be given at the first visit when it’s a good fit, alongside a weaning protocol they developed in-house and individualized plans using FDA-approved medications. Every patient is required to complete counseling with a licensed provider, and state-licensed counseling is available at the Aliquippa office. Because their providers also serve as primary care clinicians, they address physical health, coordinate specialist referrals, treat mental health concerns when possible, and offer family support, while a social worker helps with housing, transportation, and employment. They accept major insurance, offer a flat $200 monthly self-pay rate, and work closely with detox and residential programs, recovery housing, and drug courts to keep care connected.
