Suboxone Doctors in Fort Myers, FL
Board certified in Family Medicine. Same-day appointments often available.
If you are looking for Suboxone doctors in Fort Myers, you are looking for a physician who can prescribe buprenorphine in a private office rather than a clinic. Dr. Scott Jaffe treats opioid dependence from his Bonita Springs office, about twenty minutes south of downtown Fort Myers, and Fort Myers patients are usually seen within days of their first call. There is no daily dosing line, no waiting list and no referral required.
What Is Suboxone Treatment?
Suboxone is an FDA-approved medication used in medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for opioid dependence. It combines buprenorphine and naloxone to reduce cravings and ease withdrawal symptoms, so you can stabilize and focus on recovery instead of fighting your body all day. Used under a doctor’s care, it is one of the most effective, evidence-based tools available for opioid use disorder.
Suboxone is not about trading one dependence for another. It is a managed, medically supervised treatment that helps people regain stability, hold down work and relationships, and lower the risk of relapse and overdose while they rebuild.

Does insurance cover Suboxone treatment?
Our office does not bill insurance companies directly.

Take the First Step Today
Do you see Suboxone patients from Cape Coral and Lehigh Acres?
Yes. Our office is in Bonita Springs and we regularly treat patients from Cape Coral, Lehigh Acres, North Fort Myers, Estero and across Lee County. Once you are established, follow up visits are spaced out and telehealth is available when appropriate, so the drive is not a barrier for most patients.
What does Suboxone treatment cost without insurance?
For most patients the monthly Suboxone prescription costs roughly $40 to $50 without insurance. If you have heard figures in the hundreds of dollars a month, that does not reflect what our patients pay. Office visits are paid by debit or credit card, and we provide the paperwork you need to seek reimbursement from your insurer. If cost is a concern, call and ask. We would rather answer the question than have it keep someone from getting treatment.
