Addiction Medicine

Our staff focuses on the evaluation and treatment of individuals with alcohol, drug, or other substance-related disorders and individuals with the dual diagnosis of substance-related and other psychiatric disorders. Dr. Kolade and Cal Psychiatric Services are committed to providing comprehensive, well-coordinated, accessible care for people who have problems with mental illness or addiction. We work with a wide range of clinical programs that provide support and rehabilitation services that meet the diverse needs of people who are at risk and are at different stages of their lives and illnesses.

Our staff works with family doctors, home support services, community agencies and other health care providers to make sure clients and their families can receive assistance in their own communities and homes if possible. Additionally, they address larger issues that arise from four major factors affecting health -housing, employment, social support and income support.

Our focus is on client centered care. We recognize that everyone is different and that each client has individual social, physical, emotional, spiritual and psychological needs. Wherever possible, the care provided incorporates the preferences, needs, aspirations and cultural beliefs of each individual into the treatment plan.

Our office supports diversity and strives to be sensitive to race, culture, ethnicity, gender, age, abilities, religion and sexual orientation. Clients, their families and significant others are all active partners throughout the care process.

Cal Psychiatric Services also offers Buprenorphine and office based treatments for opiod dependence using Suboxone and Subutex.
