About Spero Health

Spero Health in Crossville, Tennessee, is part of a network of more than 75 outpatient addiction treatment clinics across six states. They focus mainly on opioid use disorder, including addiction to fentanyl, heroin, and prescription painkillers, and also treat other substance use disorders, including alcohol use. Care is offered through standard outpatient visits, an intensive outpatient program (IOP) at many locations, and telehealth for eligible Tennessee residents, so patients can keep working and living at home during treatment. They accept Medicaid, Medicare, and commercial insurance, and same-day appointments are sometimes available.

Treatment follows an integrated model based on American Society of Addiction Medicine guidelines, combining physician care, counseling, and recovery support in one setting. Providers prescribe and monitor FDA-approved medications such as Suboxone, Sublocade, Brixadi, and Vivitrol, always paired with individual or group counseling. Recovery support staff help with practical needs like employment, housing, child care, legal services, and transportation, and wellness offerings cover smoking cessation, sleep hygiene, and nutrition. Visits tend to be more frequent early in recovery and taper as patients stabilize, with accountability built in through medication counts, urine drug testing, and prescription monitoring.
