About Bicycle Health
There’s a moment you realize that you can’t continue like this. You want better days, better relationships, and more possibilities.
When you’re in the depths of opioid use disorder (OUD), it takes strength and courage to act on that moment. At Bicycle Health, we believe that choosing to start recovery creates hope in the face of hardship.
With us, your care begins as soon as you reach out. Most patients get an appointment on the same day or the day after. Our personalized care and medication plans offer professional support and suboxone to control withdrawal. On your best days and your worst days, we’re always here for you.
About 95% of patients end problematic opioid use within just one week. And 88% of patients who have been in care with us for a year or more see positive outcomes including easier days, steady employment, and healthier relationships.
No one does this alone. Our community of doctors, care providers, and support groups are available every day. With regular check-ins, we’ll work with you to update your care as you make progress.
We know that with the right treatment, you can overcome OUD and build a life you love.
