# Gallus Detox and Recovery Services

> Gallus Detox and Recovery Services is a physician-founded medical detoxification and addiction-recovery company that treats withdrawal from opioids, alcohol, benzodiazepines and other drugs in upscale, hotel-like inpatient suites staffed 24/7. Built on the proprietary 'Gallus Method' developed by ER physician Dr. Patrick Gallus in 2011, the company uses IV and injectable medications and cardiac telemetry to make detox safer and more comfortable, and reports that roughly 87% of its patients step directly into aftercare - far above the industry norm.
