about our general medicine practice  Union City, TN
The mission of Priority Health is to provide compassionate, effective treatment for adults who are struggling with alcohol dependence, opioid addiction, and other substance use disorders. Under the guidance of addiction medicine specialist Karen Hanks, MD, the experienced team offers empathetic and trustworthy care at their office in Union City, Tennessee.

One of the top goals of the Priority Health team is ensuring that any adult who needs addiction medicine can access the appropriate care. To achieve that goal, they offer outpatient medication-assisted management (MAT). MAT gives patients the ability to get the treatment they need without the expense of an inpatient facility.

The team also provides convenient addiction treatment. They accommodate patients who are employed, have children, and need to work around busy schedules, arranging appointments to meet each person’s needs.

As MAT specialists, the team treats the full spectrum of substance use disorders. They practice a whole-person approach, prescribing medications that prevent cravings and withdrawal symptoms, and also providing one-on-one and group therapy to support each person’s mental health and emotional and behavioral well-being during recovery.

Patients who want a health care team that’s invested in their well-being and believe in individualized care should connect with Priority Health. To schedule an appointment, call the office or use the online booking feature today.
