Twenty minutes west, a different world.
Fort Lauderdale is Broward’s front door: beaches, nightlife, cruise terminals, FLL arrivals. That saturation of triggers is precisely why a clinical campus twenty minutes inland is the right place to start recovery.
If you or a loved one is flying in from anywhere in the country, FLL is often easier than MIA: shorter security, fewer international crowds, and ten minutes of I-595 to our campus.
Downtown Fort Lauderdale and the beach are full of bars, boats, and late-night energy. Twelve miles west is twelve miles of breathing room.
Dr. Sergey Litvinov is a board-certified psychiatrist. Every withdrawal protocol, every medication decision, every co-occurring diagnosis runs through a physician.

If someone is in immediate medical danger, call 911 or 988. Broward County residents can reach 2-1-1 Broward 24/7 for crisis counseling and referrals. SAMHSA’s National Helpline (1-800-662-HELP) is free and confidential. None of these replace full clinical treatment, but they’re the right first call when a full admission isn’t yet in reach. When you’re ready, call (855) 981-8935. Our admissions line is staffed 24/7.
Physician-led, accredited, and built for unhurried care.
Families weigh credentials, environment and continuity of care alongside cost and coverage. Those are the reasons people choose our 18,000 sq ft private clinical campus in Pembroke Pines, Florida.

The Joint Commission accredits Pines independently and surveys the program against its safety and quality standards.
LegitScript certification is what Google, Microsoft, and Meta require before an addiction treatment provider can advertise with them. It means an outside audit of how the facility operates.
