COMPREHENSIVE CARE
for those with a drug dependency
Call 9901 4231 or email clinic@herbertstprivate.com.au
Our mission is to reduce the harm associated with problematic drug and alcohol use on individuals and their families.
Everybody has the right to quality of life. Addiction is a chronic relapsing condition that requires long-term intensive support.
Herbert St Private offers a drug substitution programme carried out under close monitoring with regular assessments.
Flexibility of dosing hours means those people who work, have childcare needs or appointments to keep can arrive early, from 6:30am to 8:15am, or later on, from 3:30/4pm to 7:00pm.
Update: see our revised opening hours above, due to the current Covid-19 Delta situation.

Treatment at a glance
At the commencement of treatment close monitoring is important for appropriate stabilisation. This allows nursing and medical staff to adapt treatment until such time as the right dose is obtained. When the optimal dose is reached, withdrawal symptoms and cravings should be controlled.
