Dr. Darvin Hege is certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology and the American Society of Addiction Medicine. With an Atlanta psychiatrist so close, ailments such as depression, anxiety and addiction do not have to become everyday norms. Dr. Hege is an Emory Hospital residency trained psychiatrist who maintains over 90 hours of AMA certified education each year. This allows him to stay informed of advances in psychiatry and addiction in a world where these things change rapidly.
Having an Atlanta ADD doctor with 25 years experience should give you the peace mind you need to get the treatment you need quickly. Driving this point home is one of Dr. Hege’s thousands of patients writes in a testimony:
“I am very lucky that I found his practice and my life has change 100% for the better!... The convenience and fast diagnosis and continuing care is worth every penny that I had to pay for the initial diagnostic consultation and ongoing visits.”
Additionally, Dr. Darvin Hege is one of the leading addiction specialists in Atlanta. He provides local, outpatient treatment in the metro Atlanta area and uses only the best medications available to help reduce cravings for addictions from cigarettes to cocaine and other narcotics. In fact, Dr. Hege is now licensed to prescribe buprenorphine, better known as Suboxone. This basically stops narcotic cravings within several days of induction. Most patients prefer Suboxone rather than methadone for a number of reasons. They do not have to go to a methadone clinic, the feeling while on Suboxone is more normal with a milder withdrawal when tapering or stopping Suboxone as compared to Methadone.
Dr. Hege accepts patients 18-64 years of age. However, he does not accepts medicare or patients with major mental illnesses. He is a psychiatrist and not a psychologist and therefore it is not within his jurisdiction to offer psychotherapy or counseling, only prescribe medications.
