Baldpate is a detox center in Georgetown, Massachusetts, helping people safely stop using alcohol, heroin, cocaine, stimulants, and other substances.

With over 75 years of experience and Joint Commission accreditation, Baldpate offers trusted, professional care in a distinctive setting. Their approach focuses on making detox as safe and comfortable as possible. Doctors, nurses, and social workers create personalized treatment plans that ease withdrawal symptoms. Medications are used to help manage physical effects and emotional stress, supporting clients as they begin recovery in a caring, medically monitored space. Clients stay in a peaceful, historic New England inn surrounded by 80 acres of quiet woods, just 30 miles north of Boston. The natural surroundings and quality medical support work together to create a strong foundation for the recovery process.
