The Magdalene Clinic
The Magdalene Clinic, which currently serves Greenville and Oconee, offers a compassionate, evidence-based approach to prenatal care for women with substance use disorders (SUD). Its success lies in an integrated model that co-locates obstetric services, behavioral health, social support, and peer recovery specialists in one setting—removing barriers that often keep expectant mothers from seeking care. This design ensures continuity, trust, and dignity throughout pregnancy and recovery.
Founded in Greenville in 2016 and expanded to Oconee in 2021, the clinic operates on the principles of radical love, service, and transparency. Patients receive prenatal check-ups, counseling, and tailored addiction treatment in a non-judgmental environment that treats SUD as a chronic condition, not a moral failing. Partnerships with Prisma Health, Furman University, and The Phoenix Center strengthen sustainability and outcomes.
The Magdalene Clinic demonstrates how health systems can improve maternal health and reduce stigma through integrated, trauma-informed care. Its model offers a replicable blueprint for hospitals seeking to bridge prenatal health and recovery—affirming every patient’s journey toward a healthier future. Learn more here.
