From the Founder
“It's Worth Starting Today.”
“It's Worth Starting Today.”
Curednation is a telemedicine provider specializing in opioid addiction treatment. In today’s health care landscape, it’s more important than ever to dismantle the idea that addiction is a personal failing or something to be ashamed of.

Recovery With
Understanding
Understanding
We know that addiction is a chronic disease rather than a personal choice, and we should treat it with the same dignity and respect as any other illness. A part of doing that requires us to reevaluate traditional practices of opioid addiction treatment. In doing so, Curednation is making room for approaches that give our patients more control and empowers them to WANT to do the work.

Start the Healing Process
A huge part of healing is having a disarming space to do it in, which is why we offer our services virtually. We know that not everyone is comfortable coming into a traditional treatment setting, which frequently prevents them from starting or sticking to it.
We find that people recover best when they have more control over their care and can easily access it without feeling judged or stigmatized as they navigate the process.
