1 Treatment If you are flying into Las Vegas, we can arrange for a driver to meet you at the airport and bring you to our clinic. Day 1: Interview and examination by the expert MD anesthesiologist. Interview with an addiction specialist. Patient is then driven to a hotel and takes preparation meds. Day 2: The patient undergoes medical rapid detox for 8 hours under sedation anesthesia administered by boardcertified anesthesiologist, one-on-one. Careful monitoring by anesthesia staff covers the rest of the day. After waking up, the patient is recovered for the next 1 to 3 days in a major hospital or at a licensed residential rehab center. Day 3 and 4: The patient receives continued one-on-one care and monitoring for the first 36 hours after rapid detox. If there is any sign of residual withdrawal, the patient receives medications to reduce the symptoms. Drug addiction has at least three components: physical, psychological and social. Rapid Detox only addresses the physical aspect of addiction. We do a very good job at that, but stopping physical withdrawal is not enough. In order to address the emotional and social aspects of the addiction problem, you must have long-term substance-abuse counseling, as out-patient or as inpatient, otherwise there is a great risk of relapse. We help you get started in that endeavor by providing you with 3 or 7 days of after-care at a licensed residential rehab center.

2 This treatment is only for the motivated persons who want to quit narcotic addiction. We can significantly reduce the physical addiction, but you yourself have to overcome the psychological addiction and the social influence that pushed you into addiction in the first place. If you need to stay at the licencesd rehab clinic for longer than the 3 to 7 days included in the rapid detox package to work on the psychological and social aspect of addiction, we can make the referral. This part may be covered by health insurance. The Safety of anesthesia is enhanced under expert MD anesthesiologist care. The combination of knowledge and skills in anesthesiology, pain management, critical care, and cardiac surgery anesthesia gives you the best possible combination of safety and comfort.

3 This is not covered by most health insurance. Are you the same person before you became addicted to drugs? How much would you pay to get your life back? How much money are you spending on drugs in a year? How much money have you spent on drugs since you got addicted? Our rapid detox treatment costs between $13,000 to $15,000, which is lower than most traditional rehab programs and many other rapid detox programs. Can you afford it? Can you afford NOT to do it? Call (800) for any question about our cost.

4 Treatment Options for you to select: Plan A: Interview, assessment and examination by addiction specialist and expert anesthesiologist prior to treatment. 8 weeks of follow-up by phone by addiction specialist. Rapid Detox under anesthesia for 8 10 hours at Detox Center and 2-3 days of stay at a licensed rehab center with continuous one-on-one care in the first 24 hours. (price $13,000) Plan B: Interview, assessment and examination by addiction specialist and Dr. Yee prior to treatment. 8 weeks of follow-up care by phone by addiction specialist. Rapid Detox under anesthesia for 8 10 hours at Detox Center and 6 days of stay at a licensed residential rehab center, with continuous one-on-one care during the first 36 hours of recovery. (price $15,000) Rapid Detox fee is usually not covered by health insurance. We highly recommend patients spend extra days at a licensed residential rehab center beyond the 3 or 6 days of stay included in the rapid detox packages. This extended stay may be covered by health insurance, allowing patients time to deal with the psychological, emotional, social, and mental aspects of addiction. Without the proper long-term counseling by mental health professionals to address the psychological and social aspects of addiction, there is great risk of relapse. How much money and opportunity are you missing because you are addicted to drugs?

5 Rapid Detox in our clinic is performed by boardcertified medical doctor anesthesiologist with special training and experience in critical care, pain management and cardiac surgery anesthesia to ensure patient safety and comfort. It's our decades of experience in taking care of the sickest patients that enable us to take care of the rapid detox patients with the highest safety standard. Call (800) or (702) The science and safety of medical rapid detox treatment focus on anesthetizing the patient safely and comfortably so the patient does not experience any of the intense withdrawal symptoms brought on by the aggressive and rapid detox process. Under continuous monitoring of the patient's brain, heart, respiration, oxygenation, blood pressure, optimal degree of anesthesia is delivered. Afterwards, patients only feel residual withdrawals, tolerated by the vast majority of patients. Ask yourself what kind of doctor you would want to perform rapid detox on you. During the anesthesia don't you want someone who has worked on thousands of open-heart surgery anesthesia cases, intensive care unit patients, and chronic pain patients to watch over you? Rapid Detox Procedure is performed by a double-board-certified anesthesiologist and pain management specialist, with one to three assistants dedicated to taking care of just one patient for the entire 48 hour hospital stay.

6 Medical Rapid Detox: Performed on the campus of a major hospital in Las Vegas, using advanced medication technique. The withdrawal process is accelerated, under anesthesia, to help people addicted to opiates/narcotics overcome the bulk of physical addiction. The procedure lasts 8 hours under anesthesia and then 3 days of stay at Solutions Recovery Center, with the first 24 hours being one-on-one recovery care. Experience: Rapid Detox medical director, 19 year experience in cardiac surgery anesthesia, Intensive Care Unit & 14 year experience in pain management. Cost: $12,000 for the medical rapid detox procedure, including 3 days at Solutions Recovery Center. This is not covered by most insurance. We recommend patients stay beyond 3 days at Solutions Recovery to address the psychological aspects of addiction to avoid relapse. Extended stay at Solutions Recovery is often covered by medical insurance. Call today: (800) , (702) info@rapiddetoxlasvegas.com Medical Director, Dr. Thomas C. Yee, MD: Board-Certified by American Board of Anesthesiology 1994, former chief of cardiac anesthesia, Univ of Nevada School of Medicine Board-Certified: by American Board of Pain Medicine 1997, Clinical Assistant Professor Univ. Nevada School of Medicine

7 Talk to the doctor now, call (800) There is no guarantee in life or in any medical treatment, including rapid detox, but why take a chance with any doctor who is less well-trained or less experienced? In our clinic, our medical director is an experienced anesthesiologist, double board-certified in anesthesiology and in pain medicine, with 19 year experience in cardiac anesthesia, Intensive Care, and pain management. Fundamental rules of medical ethics forbid us from offering any guarantee or promise for the success of the treatment. Upon requests, we can direct you to the blogs written by patients who have experienced success from our treatment. There is inherent risks involved in any medical procedure, including this one. We rely on our experience, advanced equiment, expertise to minimize risks and maximize patient comfort. But, again, basic rules of medical ethics prohibit us from issuing any guarantee or absolute promises. For further discussion, call us at Visit Us (800) or (702)
