Welcome to

Carolina Addiction Consultants

At Carolina Addiction Consultants we understand that every journey to recovery is unique. Led by Dr. Jay Fernando our board-certified addiction medicine physician, our office-based medical practice specializes in personalized medication assisted treatment (MAT) for substance use disorders—including opioid and alcohol addiction. We are dedicated providing compassionate, evidence-based care in a confidential, supportive environment.

Estimates vary by study and population, but research suggests that approximately 50% of individuals with a substance use disorder also have a co-occurring mental health disorder. This dual diagnosis often includes conditions such as anxiety, depression, or bipolar disorder. Our program also provides assessment and treatment for commonly associated conditions of addiction, including anxiety disorder, depression, and bipolar disorder
