Patient-Oriented Resources

The Substance Use Service at Women’s College Hospital provides in-person and virtual care to people seeking information or assistance regarding their use of substances, including prescription medications.

We take a holistic, trauma-informed approach to the assessment and support of people who use alcohol, opioids, benzodiazepines, cannabis, cocaine, methamphetamines and other substances.

We see individuals 16 years of age and over by appointment as well as on a walk-in basis through our RAAM (Rapid Access Addiction Medicine) clinic.

Formal referrals are not required but are encouraged.
