Spero Health, Inc., is an integrated healthcare services organization specializing in local and affordable outpatient care for individuals suffering from substance use disorders, with a mission to “Save Lives, Instill Hope, and Restore Relationships.” Based in Nashville, TN, and privately held by Heritage Group, Health Velocity Capital, South Central, Inc., and Frist Cressey Ventures, Spero Health operates more than 75 freestanding outpatient clinics across six states, having helped over 53,000 patients on their journey to stable recovery from addiction, making it one of the largest office-based opioid treatment providers in the country.
Spero Health utilizes an innovative evidence-based integrated care model that combines both physical and behavioral healthcare services under one roof to treat the whole patient, following American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) treatment guidelines proven most effective for opioid and other substance use disorders.
This comprehensive approach, known as the 'power of three,' includes physician services with evidence-based practices such as mental and physical health screenings, individualized recovery plans, and FDA-approved medication-assisted treatments like Suboxone, Vivitrol, and Sublocade to ease withdrawal and cravings; behavioral health counseling through individual and group sessions providing safe spaces to develop coping skills and adherence to recovery plans; and recovery support services offering assistance with employment, housing, healthcare, child care, legal services, transportation, wellness programs like smoking cessation and nutrition, as well as patient and family education to understand the disorder and steps to success.
The community-based model allows patients to continue working and caring for their families while overcoming addiction, with an emphasis on accountability through medication counts, urine drug testing, and prescription monitoring, and additional support for early recovery needs.
Spero Health serves a diverse target population including those with opioid, alcohol, stimulant, and co-occurring disorders, welcoming pregnant women in coordination with OB/GYNs, court-mandated individuals, and anyone seeking help regardless of background, striving to eliminate barriers through in-network status with Medicaid and most commercial insurance plans, while living core values of Compassion, Accountability, Respect, Commitment, Integrity, and Team to pioneer affordable integrated treatment that transforms individuals, families, and communities impacted by substance use disorders.
What we treat
Treatment & Programs
Levels of Care
The treatment continuum at this center is designed to meet patients right where they are in their recovery journey. Their community-based outpatient approach allows individuals to continue working and caring for their families while receiving care. For added flexibility, virtual telehealth appointments are available alongside comprehensive aftercare support to help sustain long-term stable recovery.
Therapies
Spero Health utilizes a distinct "power of three" approach that combines physician services, counseling, and recovery support under one roof. This evidence-based model heavily integrates FDA-approved medication-assisted treatments like Suboxone, Sublocade, and Vivitrol to ease withdrawal symptoms and cravings. Alongside medication management, patients participate in mandatory individual and group therapy sessions to develop essential coping skills.
Addictions
Providers here work on the front lines of the addiction crisis, specializing heavily in treating opioid use disorder involving heroin, fentanyl, and prescription painkillers. The clinical team also provides targeted, evidence-based care for individuals struggling with alcohol and stimulant addictions, including methamphetamine and cocaine.
Conditions
Understanding that substance use disorder rarely exists in a vacuum, the medical and counseling staff are equipped to address co-occurring mental health challenges. Patients presenting with trauma, anxiety, or depression receive integrated care that targets these underlying conditions simultaneously with their addiction treatment.
Issues
Because lasting recovery requires a stable foundation, dedicated support teams actively help patients navigate everyday challenges and practical barriers. Case managers assist with everything from reliable transportation and securing child care to finding employment and addressing urgent legal problems. They also offer wellness guidance covering sleep hygiene, smoking cessation, and improved nutrition.
Programs
The facility fully embraces a medication-integrated, evidence-based medical model to guide its treatment philosophy. Their clinical teams offer targeted dual diagnosis tracks and trauma-informed care protocols adapted for each individual's needs. Furthermore, they work closely with the local criminal justice system to provide specialized court-mandated programs and diversion initiatives that aim to reduce recidivism.
