About Community Medical Services

Community Medical Services (CMS) offers outpatient care for individuals dealing with opioid use disorder (OUD). At the Phoenix N 23rd Ave clinic, qualified clinicians deliver supportive treatment designed to strengthen recovery. CMS focuses on helping patients build stability and enhance overall well-being by providing a comprehensive approach to care. The clinic is conveniently located near W Northern Ave and I-17, making it easy to reach by public transportation or by car, with parking available on site. At the N 23rd Ave location, CMS provides medication-assisted treatment (MAT) using FDA-approved options such as Suboxone, Naltrexone, and Methadone to help lessen cravings and make withdrawal symptoms more manageable. In addition to MAT, patients participate in both one-on-one and group counseling, where trained therapists use research-backed techniques to support healthier coping skills. Peer support specialists, who have personal experience with recovery, also play an important role by offering encouragement and insight throughout the program. With a combination of medical treatment, counseling, and peer-based guidance, CMS delivers an integrated pathway for opioid recovery.
