Committed to serving the population in and around Pittsburgh, Gateway Rehabilitation Center is the region's premier addiction recovery center. Gateway Rehab, a non-profit organization, is a pioneering center for effective, comprehensive treatment. Through the years, the center has helped countless individuals free themselves from the devastation of substance abuse disorders - at the same time helping innumerable family members, employers, neighbors and others affected by the costs of addiction.
For its uncompromising commitment to its mission, Gateway Rehab has been recognized by Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf and the Pennsylvania Department of Human Services as an Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) Center of Excellence in the state of Pennsylvania. It is one of only 20 centers in the state that have earned the distinction.
In a statement, Gateway Rehab President and CEO Paul Bacharach expressed his gratitude to the office of the governor for being very supportive of the center's comprehensive, systematic yet individualized approach in dealing with opioid addictions. Moreover, he is thankful for the funding provided in support of the center's innovative "hub and spoke" model of care.
