Situated on the shoreline of southeast Georgia, Doc's Place Recovery provides long-term sober living for men, especially guys in their 20s and 30s, recovering from drug or alcohol addiction. Alumni house managers and speakers contribute to house life and off-site excursions.

The entry fee of $4,500 includes groceries for the first month.

Doc's Place currently has 3 locations near each other.

Routines

The days begin by 9 a.m. on weekdays and by 10 a.m. on weekends. During the day, clients participate in a 12-Step Facilitation meeting, such as an Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) meeting. By day 14, Doc's Place expects residents to work at a full-time job. The standard curfew time is 11 p.m.

On the weekends, Doc's Place leverages their proximity to the beach and parks to facilitate group activities like surfing, fishing, sports, fitness training, and more community events. They also keep surfboards onsite for clients to check out. Clients can request weekend passes after 90 days of living at Doc's Place.

Doc's Place brings in group therapists, and alumni and guest speakers sometimes visit to speak to clients. The therapists and speakers address co-occurring mental health issues that can affect sobriety.

Every other week, staff review clients' recovery progress.

The program lasts a year, and many clients stay longer.

House Rules

To ensure continued sobriety, Doc's Place performs weekly random drug tests, which the house provides at no charge. They allow residents to use electronic devices after 30 days by approval of a house manager or a director. Clients can use their phones to communicate with family, their workplace, Doc's Place staff, and other parties involved in their recovery.

Directors or staff members approve visitors or medications. They don't allow products containing alcohol, such as mouthwashes and cough medicines, or non-alcoholic beer.

Loved One of a Former Client

Cocaine
Doc’s Place saved our son’s life. He was an addict for 20+ years, and had gone to several 30-day rehabs with no success. Doc’s is unique being a “long-term” recovery program. When he first got there he was in very bad shape mentally and physically. They worked with him and he got a full-time job, attended daily AA meetings and was held accountable in every aspect of his life. Through a structured routine, he learned to live a healthy, drug free lifestyle, and has built friendships that will last a lifetime. His newfound sobriety of 19 months is an incredible blessing to our whole family. We have our wonderful, loving son back. We will always be grateful to Doc’s.

We love hearing about your treatment experience
