Comprehensive, Respectful Addiction Treatment in Your Community
Formerly known as CleanSlate, SaVida Health Richmond provides evidence-based outpatient treatment for opioid, alcohol, and polysubstance addiction. Our mission is simple: offer effective, respectful care that helps patients move forward, without stigma, without delay, and with the support they deserve.
Personalized Treatment Options That Work
We understand that no two recovery journeys are alike. That’s why we offer multiple Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) options tailored to your needs. These include:
Suboxone®
Sublocade®, Brixadi®, and Vivitrol® (long-acting injectable medications)
Psychiatric medication management to address co-occurring mental health conditions
Whether you’re just starting treatment or continuing care from another provider, we work with you to create a plan that fits your life and helps you stay on track.
Care That Goes Beyond Medication
Addiction impacts more than just your health, it affects housing, work, relationships, and mental well-being. At SaVida Health Richmond, we offer:
Case management and wraparound support to help with housing, transportation, and job access
Counseling and therapy services to uncover the root causes of addiction and build healthier coping tools
Overdose prevention tools, including free Narcan®/Naloxone available on-site
Substance use education and relapse prevention planning
Our care team is made up of experienced addiction medicine providers, counselors, and support staff committed to helping you heal, not just treat symptoms.
Convenient and Accessible Care
We offer same-day or next-day intake appointments and accept Medicaid, Medicare, and most commercial insurance plans. Telehealth appointments are also available for eligible patients.
Our goal is to make getting help as easy as possible, because we know the window to start recovery can be short, and every day matters.

Take the First Step Today
If you or someone you love is struggling with addiction, we’re here to help. SaVida Health Richmond provides the tools, support, and structure to help you reclaim your life, one step at a time.
My first time here, I wasn’t particularly having a good morning. I had been trying to get treated for my ADHD for almost a year as someone who has been treated since 16. After being sent all over the place, I finally was sent here. Although I was hesitant at first, they took the best care of me! I wasn’t treated like an “addict” just because of my past, I was treated as someone who has ADHD & with the most respect & eagerness to help. I was finally seen as a person rather than a “junkie”. I truly appreciate all of these women.
Today is the first day back on my meds, I can honestly say I finally feel like myself again & I am beyond grateful.
I have been coming to see Dr. Gardener for almost 2 years now. He is such a great doctor. He hasn’t only cared about my substance abuse treatment but has been more than helpful and very much cared for my actual overall health. He put me in referrals to see specialist, and the ladies who work in the office’s are fabulous as well. They have gone the extra mile to help me be seen because I had a lot of issues with my insurance. Everyone is just the best at Savita health.
I had my first visit with her today and she is just GREAT! She’s understanding, compassionate and a wonderful Dr that actually listens to what you have going on. I would definitely recommend to any and everyone!
Skip inpatient, SaVida can offer everything they do and more. Nurses, front desk, physicians, everyone that works there is kind, patient, respectful, compassionate, and knowledgeable. You will leave there fully informed about every step of your plan. But most importantly you will make your own plan. This is not a one size fits all program. They work with you to create the best possible program for YOU and your recovery. You can be completely honest with them about everything and they will help you find the right way for you to get clean based on your lifestyle, your schedule, your insurance, your specific needs and circumstances, and your budget. You don’t even need to have health insurance to go there. The out of pocket fees and cost of meds are affordable. (Cheaper than using, for sure!) If you are truly ready, SaVida is the best place to go for treatment. Their MAT/comfort meds are tailored to you and your DOC. This was very important to me as I had a bad experience previously that left me nervous to ever try again. I thought I was a lost cause because my withdrawal was too painful. I thought I would never be able to get through detox in order to get clean and get my life back. But there is a way to get through withdrawal, and SaVida will work with you and create a treatment plan tailored specifically to you. They will monitor you every step of the way to be sure you’re happy with your plan, that it is working for you, or to make adjustments if necessary. I highly recommend SaVida to anyone who wants to stop using substances and get control of their lives back.
I absolutely love Robin Smith she is the best counselor I've ever spoken too, she's an amazingly sweet woman all together. A wonderfully great person that loves to help others that are in need, she's a very Special Soul & has an Awesome Spirit I absolutely enjoy her as a person & love too be in her company.
Great Doctors and staff. I came here when my old Doctors shit down. From the front desk, to the Urinalysis, to the Doctor. All respected me and very helpful. I feel they actually care. They need another office outside the city in Hanover/Henrico area. But i recommend 100%. Counsels are great as well. Manager is awesome as well such a sweet heart.
Shannon as Well as all the staff counselors all are wonderful very caring they really listen and they have total faith in us as patients !! Shannon Davidson ive been with for some years now she goes far beyond the call of duty beautiful lady saved my life ❤️🙌❤️
Awesome staff,And not a long wait time.The doctors care about your recovery and will meet you were you are in your journey.Highly recommend.Also I love how all the staff always makes sure your needs are fully met.Sometimes I feel they work harder for our recovery then we do,and I love that.Shannon is so down to earth.I never feel judged and I feel that I can always be open and honest with her about my sobriety.The entire staff are so helpful and very professional.
I truly experienced a warm and caring atmosphere of professionalism from beginning to end, and I think there should be more Savidas around the city to better combat the opioid epidemic here in Richmond. It would be even better if they would consider hiring some PRS agents to work along side them to better help the client's get a smoother transition through this process.
