Ok well to be completely honest I have not started my out patient treatment. But what I can say is that I’m very excited to get started tomorrow and also I have a couple friends who have been through the program and are still clean and sober to this day! I’m hoping for the same results. I’m looking forward to my experience with you guys and I’ve heard only good things.

Place IS A FRAUD!! Meaning STAFF!!!, I DISCHARGED MYSELF!!!
Strengths: Counselor one on one, great nutrition, and classes... Weaknesses: Not enough outside or in coming AA or NA meetings.. They teach so much to remember it all, treatment is not just about drugs.. It teaches a new life to live..
