The Briarwood Center for Women, Children, and Young Adults is part of the University of Michigan Health network. The center is in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Services include obstetrics and gynecology, nutrition services, pediatrics, and more.

They offer breastfeeding support and have a social work service. Additionally, they can refer clients with substance use and co-occurring mental health disorders to their specialty treatment services in the Department of Psychiatry at the Rachel Upjohn Building on Plymouth Road in Ann Arbor, less than 10 miles away. The center has in-network agreements with many insurance companies. They accept some Medicare and Medicaid plans.

The Briarwood Center offers family centered care focused on women and children. Much of the care here focuses on disease prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and referrals when appropriate. One of the unique services offered here is the breastfeeding clinic to support breastfeeding moms.

The onsite breastfeeding clinic helps moms whose infants are having difficulties. Some issues include difficulty latching, inadequate weight gain, and low milk supply. Staff at the clinic includes a lactation consultant, pediatrician, and OBGYN who all specialize in support for breastfeeding moms.

The center is about 43 miles from Detroit in Ann Arbor. Ann Arbor is a vibrant city with a nice mix of urban areas and natural beauty. The clinic is about three miles from the quaint, walkable downtown district with a fun mix of restaurants and shops.

Clients can access most types of care from the Briarwood Center. If you need addiction or mental health treatment, the staff can refer you to the Rachel Upjohn facility.

The addiction care is comprehensive and includes an individualized treatment plan. Services include outpatient detoxification, medication assisted treatment (MAT), psychiatric treatment, and intensive outpatient therapy and treatment programs.

Because many clients with substance use disorder (SUD) have a co-occurring mental health challenge, clients receive a psychiatric consultation if necessary. The consultation helps the treatment team develop the best plan for your unique situation.
