Behavioral Health of The Palm Beaches Reviews

There are much better treatment centers available. The center for men lacks all the things you would look for in a recovery center and goes by 12 steps only. Do not waste your time or money at the center for men if you really want help and have some class.
Dirty, awful, center!!! They treat nothing. Do not believe the lies the admissions team tells or any false reviews. Lake Worth area is awful and the center is the worst. If you are coming from prison or just killing the time to test negative for court maybe this is your place. But for anyone else beware!!!! Staff is not qualified either. Shame on this center!
I am writing this review so other family members or patients in need of care do not have to experience the disgrace of this center for men!! Stay away. Everything the facility told me was simply not true. They lie and will just bill insurance for everything. The facility was not clean and filled with majority of guys that just talked about how much they used ( as if it is cool) while having smoke breaks outside. There is no real MD care or personalized care.I would not write an awful review unless it was 100% accurate. Beware of the hotel they call a facility!!! Do not go!!!!
The facility is located in a very serene atmosphere and and the staff and Doctors are very personable and caring. There were many different programs and therapies available that are tailored to each individual. However, the cost was a downfall.
They have a really good program and the facility is really nice. The strengths of the facility were the variety of programs and the support.
