The beneficial stuff was gone (from 1st time), there's constant middle school drama, and I had no direct access to any doctors. My mental health declined so rapidly I left AMA to access better resources and remain sober. Get help, just not here.

Review from Rehabs.com

I had a very pleasant stay at this facility. The staff was over the top welcoming and dedicated to helping the patients to feel wanted. They were all very kind, and genuinely cared. The food was immaculate. Kudos to the kitchen crew. I would recommend this treatment center wholeheartedly. The only issue I had was the Medical staff would not let me implement my treatment plan in helping me to manage my health. I use natural supplements for some health conditions that I have, and the staff was adamant about shoving their Western medicine in me. Helping a patient to recover should be a team effort from a medical perspective. Some patients use holistic methods to manage their health. From my personal standpoint concerning this....”I know what works for me! Aside from that this is a wonderful place to receive treatment.

Disengaged staff with no apparent accountability. Frightening female patient population, largely court ordered to treatment. Rampant theft, arguing, threats, and one fight. It was a traumatic experience, totally, to the point where I had nightmares afterwards.
