Welcome
It’s long been said that who you learn from matters.
We believe the same is true of who you entrust with your healthcare.
At Synthesis Health & Wellness, we believe in whole-person wellness, with a focus on treatment for opiate use disorder and addiction. As an experienced and trusted resource, we help people struggling across the spectrum of opioids, from the misuse of prescription pain medications to fentanyl, as well as with other substance use concerns.
We realize recovery starts with a single step. Our office-based opioid treatment (OBOT) program combines compassion, evidence-based medication-assisted treatment (MAT) options, and a supportive staff.
As you start your path forward, you are not alone.

Our philosophy
Synthesis is the art and science of combining separate parts into a single, coherent new whole.
The name Synthesis was chosen with intention, and so was the line that goes with it: helping you put it all together. Many of the people we meet have had their lives and their identity fractured. They may carry the stigma of labels, or be living with shame, guilt, or a sense of lost control.
To meet that, we have adopted our own “POP” culture: Persevere. Overcome. Pursue. We believe in accountability over enabling, coupled with compassion, and an awareness of the realities our clients face.
Testimonials
In their own words
-
Dr. Lemons and his staff are absolutely amazing. When you walk in the door you are greeted by Robyn who always has a smile on her face and is very helpful. Dr. Lemons is one of the best doctors; he is very personable and knowledgeable. I actually enjoy going to my doctor’s appointment because they make it so enjoyable that it feels more like going to visit with friends. I could not ask for a better doctor!
A.S. -
I’ve been visiting Dr. Lemons for several years, and I’m truly grateful to have him as my care provider. He has always taken the time to listen to me, answer my questions, and make me feel comfortable and cared for. I never feel rushed or like just another patient.
Over the years, I’ve come to really appreciate his kindness, professionalism, and genuine concern for my well-being. It’s reassuring to know I have a doctor I can trust, and I would highly recommend Dr. Lemons to anyone looking for someone who truly cares about his patients.
R.B. -
Very rarely do you find a doctor that actually cares about you as a person and not just a medical diagnosis. Dr. Lemons is an absolute blessing!

You are not alone.
