Do you need a Suboxone doctor in Jacksonville, Florida today but are reluctant and embarrassed or afraid someone may find out your secret?
We have a great deal of experience in helping people get out of the terrible cycle of addiction. Dr. Willens and his staff are very experienced, non-judgmental, caring, compassionate, and are very effective at stopping the pain of addiction. The first step is asking for help.
While Suboxone is not a treatment for addiction, it is very helpful at harm reduction and stopping the cycle of insanity so that you can work a quality program for recovery. Unfortunately, people often fall into the trap of believing that they are treating their addiction by taking Suboxone. This trap can lead to deadly consequences because we know that the disease continues to progress and relapses can be fatal.
Suboxone (buprenorphine plus naloxone) is an effective first step in treating one of the most difficult aspects of the disease – physical dependence of opioids and their withdrawal. Once the physical dependence is managed, the next step is movement towards real recovery.
Suboxone is useful as a way to create an opportunity to break from active addiction and to learn about your disease, to seek and to develop a program of recovery, and then to actively work and to live that program. We always encourage patients who are ready and willing, to wean off suboxone as soon as possible and create a strong recovery program.
Please know that you do not have to go through your suffering alone. We are here to help…just reach out and ask.
This may not be an easy thing to do. All through our usage, we told ourselves, “I can handle it.” Even if this was true in the beginning, it is not so now. The drugs handled us. We lived to use and used to live. Very simply, an addict is a person whose life is controlled by drugs. Perhaps you admit you have a problem with drugs, but you don’t consider yourself an addict. All of us have preconceived ideas about what an addict is. There is nothing shameful about being an addict once you begin to take positive action. If you can identify with our problems, you may be able to identify with our solution
The following questions were written by recovering addicts in Narcotics Anonymous. If you have doubts about whether or not you’re an addict, take a few moments to read the questions below and answer them as honestly as you can.
This is a question only you can answer. We found that we all answered different numbers of these questions “Yes.” The actual number of “Yes” responses wasn’t as important as how we felt inside and how addiction had affected our lives.
Some of these questions don’t even mention drugs. This is because addiction is an insidious disease that affects all areas of our lives—even those areas which seem at first to have little to do with drugs. The different drugs we used were not as important as why we used them and what they did to us.
When we first read these questions, it was frightening for us to think we might be addicts. Some of us tried to dismiss these thoughts by saying:
“Oh, those questions don’t make sense;”
Or,
“I’m different. I know I take drugs, but I’m not an addict. I have real emotional/family/job problems;”
Or,
“I’m just having a tough time getting it together right now;”
Or,
“I’ll be able to stop when I find the right person/get the right job, etc.”
If you are an addict, you must first admit that you have a problem with drugs before any progress can be made toward recovery. These questions may help to show you how using drugs has made your life unmanageable. Addiction takes our pride, self-esteem, family, loved ones, and even our desire to live. If you have not reached this point in your addiction, you don’t have to.

Joyce Rooker2022-03-30Dr. Willens is a very good physician, he really surprised me when he went out of his way to resolve a situation, this lets me know also that he is fair and does care about his patients. I found out that if a problem does arise, let him know and he will if possible make it right. He is the best doctor my husband has seen.
lisa cooper2022-03-02This office and staff have been a Godsend for me- I was in pain all the time and did not want to be on heavy pain meds- I have had a treatment plan with injections and I have become almost pain free- it is good not to hurt all the time and my quality of life is so much better- The staff is awesome! Always there to answer any questions and are great at scheduling because everything is on time- THANKS for a wonderful experience
Frances McCrary2021-12-09Dr. Willens was recommended to me for a persistant back problem that had not been helped by other doctors. I found him very compassionate in listening to me as I described my chronic pain and frustration in not finding relief from other treatments. He then made suggestions about what he could do to ease the pain and we agreed on a treatment plan. I would have no problem recommending him to others. Also his staff is very friendly, understanding, and efficient.
Selena Holmes2021-10-01I cannot say enough wonderful things about this place. I have been a patient of Dr. Willens office for years now. Also the staff is always friendly and courteous. They always have smile's on their faces. I can't begin to say how much Dr. Willens has helped me through the years and I appreciate him so much. They always go beyond the bare minimum. He offers many different treatment options. When I first started going there I was a mess and I was in so much pain everyday. I felt pretty hopeless and like my pain had taken over my life. Now I am working out everyday, a lot healthier, and most of all I have hope (with a lot less pain).He offers many options, and does procedures in the comfort of his office. Dr.Willens and his staff are more than just another doctor's office to me, but more like family to me. It is a place to get results. If you're experiencing pain everyday and you're really looking for a solution then you shouldn't hesitate to call them.
Charlene Robbins2021-09-27Dr. Willens and his staff are the best (especially Melissa)! I have degenerative disc disease, resulting in pain from my neck to my tailbone. I could not have gotten through the last several years without Dr. Willens. He actually listens to and works with the patient to come up with a treatment plan that is best for them. I would recommend Advanced Pain Management to anybody who is struggling with chronic pain, or just healing from an injury.
Annette Polson2021-09-23I have been a patient of Dr. Willen's for several years. Consistently I've been treated with the greatest of respect, kindness, and compassion. Dr. Willens, Melissa, and his entire staff set the bar very high with patient care being their number one priority. The office atmosphere is warm and friendly and the office itself is beautiful and calming (from the reception and waiting area to the exam and treatment rooms) and exceptionally clean. Dr Willens is unique in the sense that he is concerned with the person as a whole - not just the injury, illness or condition that brings a patient into the office. There is no quick fix for chronic pain; and as my condition changes, so do my treatment options/plans and goals. Dr Willens cares to take his time to get to know his patients. At each and every one of my visits, he asks me how I am doing and he listens to what I have to say. No matter how busy he may be, he is attentive and I never feel rushed . I always leave the office feeling better mentally as well as physically. Melissa and the office support staff are the best. They make you feel more like family or a friend rather than just a patient. I'm thankful to Dr. Willens and everyone at Advanced Pain Management for making such a positive difference in my life. Not only my pain but my overall, day to day, quality of life has greatly improved. Every doctor's office should strive for the same level of excellence and patient satisfaction.
Kayln Kessell2021-09-23I have been a patient of Dr. Willens since Jan of 2018 and I continue to see him regularly for pain control related to several musculoskeletal disorders/issues as well as fibromyalgia . I have said it before and I’ll say it again, Dr. Willens is an angel and brought me back to my most normal self possible with the use of injections, non-opioid medications and physical therapy. And that’s another plus of visiting his office, it’s a one stop shop for all pain relief. As I go throughout my day to day routines at home and work now , where my pain is little to none, I look back at when I first came to see Dr. Willens and was in pain 24/7 and at a constant pain level of 6-9 , and I still am in amazement by his expertise. I love you guys !
