Online Suboxone treatment in Charlotte, NC

Looking for a Suboxone doctor who can see you without a trip across Charlotte? Virtual Addiction Medicine provides physician-led addiction treatment by video for people located in North Carolina. Start with a conversation about your goals, current treatment, and insurance.

Serving Charlotte residents by video. NC Medicaid and commercial insurance accepted; verify your specific benefits before booking.

A first appointment that fits around work and family

If finding time for an office visit has delayed getting help, ask our team about the available video-visit schedule. Before booking, choose a private place where you can speak openly and check that your phone or computer supports the visit. You do not need to travel to a Charlotte office for our telehealth appointment.

Tell us whether you are looking for a first evaluation or already receive treatment elsewhere. Have your medication list and insurance card ready. If you are transferring, let us know your current prescriber and when your next follow-up is due so the team can discuss the next steps before you change your care.

Your physician and your treatment plan

Dr. Richard Pavelock provides addiction medicine care through video appointments. Your visit includes a discussion of your history, current medications, and goals. When appropriate, your physician may recommend medication for opioid use disorder, including buprenorphine/naloxone (Suboxone), with ongoing follow-up.

Questions before your Charlotte video visit

Can I request a visit while I am at work in Charlotte?

You can contact the team to arrange an appointment, but the clinical visit needs a private setting where you can participate safely. Do not join while driving. Tell the team your scheduling constraints before choosing a time.

How do I check insurance or ask about self-pay?

Send the team your current plan information and ask about the expected cost before your visit. Coverage and patient responsibility depend on your benefits. If you are uninsured, ask about the practice’s self-pay option.
