Our facility sits at 2316 Surf Avenue in Coney Island, reachable from Midwood by car via Ocean Parkway or Coney Island Avenue, or by subway on the D, F, N, and Q lines to Coney Island and Stillwell Avenue.

What a Stay Actually Looks Like
Treatment at Surfpoint Recovery starts with medically supervised detox for anyone withdrawing from alcohol, opioids, or benzodiazepines, with a nurse on site 24 hours a day. From there, clients move into short-term residential rehab, which runs 21 to 28 days on average. A psychiatric evaluation takes place within the first 24 hours after rehab admission, and the team starts mapping out a discharge plan from day one rather than waiting until the stay is nearly over.
Coverage and Cost, Confirmed Before You Commit
Surfpoint accepts all major Medicaid plans, including Healthfirst, MetroPlus, Fidelis Care, Molina, and Wellcare, along with Medicare, select commercial plans, and self-payment. Our team checks your coverage for free before admission, so you know what a stay will cost before you decide anything. Call (646) 347-1893, or look through our frequently asked questions for more on how insurance and admission fit together.
Treating the Whole Person, Not Just the Addiction
For clients managing both a substance use disorder and a mental health condition, we run dual diagnosis care so both are addressed together rather than in separate places at separate times. Treatment draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and trauma-informed care, delivered through individual, group, and family sessions, along with 12-step support through AA and NA.
The Clinicians Leading Your Care
Care is led by Medical Director Dr. Ramsey Joudeh and Assistant Medical Director Joseph Turkel, with Clinical Director Alet Coke overseeing clinical services. Program Director Vincent Marchese holds an MSW from Fordham University and an Advanced CASAC, and Executive Directors Ami Mitteldorf, with more than 25 years in addiction treatment, and Eric Moore run the organization. You can read more about our clinical team before your first call.
Standards We Are Held To
Surfpoint is OASAS-licensed by New York State, and both our detox and residential rehab programs carry CARF Three-Year Accreditation, first accredited in 2023 (CARF ID 367286). We are also DEA-authorized for medication-assisted treatment and LegitScript certified, and HIPAA governs confidentiality throughout your stay.
About Midwood, NY
Midwood, in the central part of Brooklyn, is known for a multicultural community and a suburban feel that goes back to its early development as a residential area in the early 20th century. Tree-lined streets, well-kept homes, and a strong sense of community have carried through, with housing that mixes single-family houses, detached homes, and low-rise apartment buildings.
Avenue J and Coney Island Avenue serve as the neighborhood's busiest commercial strips, lined with shops, restaurants, and businesses that reflect a diverse population. Midwood is also home to a significant Jewish community, with synagogues, yeshivas, and kosher establishments woven into daily life, and several subway lines make commuting to the rest of Brooklyn and Manhattan straightforward.
