## Why choose Sutter?

Addiction can affect anyone. No matter how it begins, addiction is a medical condition — one you don’t have to face alone. Recovery can be challenging, but our clinicians provide personalized support to help you and your loved ones navigate the journey to lasting recovery.

Our two Bay Area addiction treatment specialty centers provide a safe, supportive place to begin or continue recovery.

[Sutter Mills Peninsula Medical Center](https://www.sutterhealth.org/find-location/facility/mills-health-center-1043247107) in San Mateo offers a dedicated intensive outpatient program for adults moving forward in their daily lives. Together, these programs offer connected, patient-centered care at every stage.

A consultation with an addiction specialist is the first step to assess your needs and customize your treatment options, including dual diagnosis care if needed. Additional behavioral health services are available virtually and across Sutter to support your long-term wellness. Wherever your journey starts, we’re here to support you and your family.
