“AppleGate Recovery was founded with the goal of providing patients comprehensive, individualized treatment for opioid addiction. As the opioid crisis continues unabated there has never been a greater need,” said Mike Saul, Division President of AppleGate Recovery. “Time and time again we have seen that when patients are provided a combination of medication, counseling and other support services, they can recover. Now the focus is on bringing treatment options to areas of the community that are currently underserved, helping patients identify what recovery looks like for them and how we can help them get there.”
