Who we treat

Real recovery for real lives — no matter where you start.

Addiction looks different for everyone. Some patients started with a legitimate prescription; some started elsewhere. We treat the medical condition — judgment-free.

Prescription Opioid Use

Oxycodone, hydrocodone, codeine, morphine, oxymorphone, and other prescription opioids.

Heroin Dependence

Comprehensive medical care for active heroin use or those recently in detox.

Fentanyl Use

Specialized care for fentanyl-involved opioid use disorder, including stronger induction protocols.

Post-Surgery Dependence

Patients who developed dependence after legitimate post-operative or chronic-pain prescribing.

Co-occurring Anxiety / Depression

Mental health is part of the picture. We coordinate with behavioral-health partners as needed.

Cravings & Withdrawal

Buprenorphine reduces cravings and prevents withdrawal so you can focus on recovery.

Long-term Maintenance

Stable maintenance dosing for patients who have been on MAT for months or years.

Whole-Person Health

Hypertension, diabetes, infectious disease screening, and routine primary care under one roof.

Why MedexClinic

The difference of real medical care.

Confidential & HIPAA-protected

Your records are protected by federal privacy law and our internal protocols. Information is never shared without your written consent — including with employers, family, or insurance for non-treatment purposes.

Real medical office, not a clinic mill

MedexClinic is a calm, professional medical office. You're not lined up in a hallway — you're seen by an experienced physician with 18+ years of clinical practice for a real visit.

Whole-person care

Recovery rarely happens in isolation. Most patients also use us for primary care — blood pressure, diabetes, screenings — managed under one trusted clinician.

Compassionate, judgment-free

Addiction is a chronic medical condition — not a moral failing. We meet you where you are and partner with you toward the life you want.

Frequently asked

Questions Jacksonville patients ask before picking up the phone.

You can call without committing to anything. We'll listen, answer your questions, and you decide what comes next.

Take the first step

Call us — confidential, no judgment, no pressure. We'll explain your options.

Yes. Federal law (HIPAA, plus 42 CFR Part 2 for substance-use treatment records) protects your information. We do not share treatment records with employers, family, or insurance for non-treatment purposes without your explicit written consent. Your visit is private from the first phone call.
MAT uses FDA-approved medications — most commonly buprenorphine (the active ingredient in Suboxone) — alongside counseling and behavioral therapies to treat opioid use disorder. MAT is the gold standard of care: it reduces cravings, prevents withdrawal, and helps patients stabilize their lives. It is not 'trading one addiction for another' — it is evidence-based medicine.
Yes — patients typically need to be in mild-to-moderate withdrawal before starting buprenorphine to avoid precipitated withdrawal. Dr. Nouman will give you specific timing instructions during your intake based on the type and amount of opioid you're using (including fentanyl-specific protocols when relevant).
There is no set timeline. Some patients stabilize over months; many remain on long-term maintenance for years, which is fully appropriate. Like blood-pressure medication, the right duration is the one that keeps you well. Tapering is always your decision, made together with your physician.
Treatment records for substance use are protected by 42 CFR Part 2, an even stricter standard than general HIPAA. We do not share information with employers. Insurance involvement is limited to billing for the visit if you elect to use insurance — and you may choose self-pay if you prefer. Your treatment status remains private.
We accept most major insurance plans, and self-pay options are also available. Suboxone (buprenorphine-naloxone) is typically covered by most insurance and Florida Medicaid. Call (904) 444-2903 with your insurance information and we'll verify benefits before your visit.
We are familiar with fentanyl-involved use disorders and use modern induction protocols (including microinductions) when appropriate. Fentanyl's long half-life requires more careful timing than older opioids — we'll walk you through exactly what to do. Please be honest about your use so we can keep you safe.
Encourage them to call us directly — recovery works best when the patient takes the step themselves. You may also call (904) 444-2903 to ask general questions on their behalf, but treatment can only begin once the patient consents and engages. If they are in immediate danger, call 911 or the SAMHSA National Helpline at 1-800-662-4357.
