Recover
Recover is a San Diego-based, tech-enabled substance use treatment provider that combines medication-assisted treatment with counseling delivered via telehealth. Founded in 2021 by Nick Gulino and a former McKinsey team out of Y Combinator's Winter 2021 batch, the company partners with state and local governments to offer same-day, no-waitlist addiction care - in-network with Medi-Cal and certified by California's Department of Health Care Services - at roughly a tenth of the cost of traditional rehab facilities.
