This place was like a prison. It was dirty and disgusting and I felt like I was being held captive the entire time. I got very little help from my assigned therapist and social worker; at one point my assigned therapist told me I was “overreacting”. I didn’t feel like there was anyone around me who actually understood what I was going through and my situation as a young adult. The only people I liked there were the other patients and honestly they helped me more than the staff did. We all looked out for each other as much as we could and they were the only people I felt kind of understood what I was going through. Most of the staff were really kind and supportive, but some of the techs could go to hell honestly. One in particular had a very nasty attitude and they were not organized at all. My discharge process took four hours when it was supposed to be at least 30 minutes. Also we got very little help as well. All we did during the day was walk around, watch tv, eat, smoke, take our meds, and sleep. No one really came to talk to us, or me at least, and I left with more medication and not feeling like I had any new skills to take on my situation. On the other hand, Dr. Shoptaugh was amazing and helped as much as he could. All in all, the place is hell and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.

I've had a terrible experience in regards to their handling of my friend who is transgender. When trying to leave contact info, I needed to know my friend's legal name. I was not seeking denial or confirmation that she was staying there. For future transgender patients, there should be an option friends and family can leave contact info by using the person's prefered name; this is akin to leaving it by using a person's nickname or preferred name. From what I can tell this is unintentional, but this is a transphobic way of handling things. Using someone's dead name can be considered humilitaing and disrespectful. Ive been trying to reach their Human Resources for days and have only been met with silence or leaving voicemails. There are plenty of medical offices and hospitals that have policies to respect transgender patients.

If I could give zero stars I would!! This place is disqusting, the health board should shut it down. They do not clean the rooms, bathrooms, common areas.... anything!! I just got out of here today, the techs have a I'm better than you attitude. It's run more like a prison then a place to get help. The nurses forget to give meds then when confronted lie. The techs call patients names and laugh in their face about their condition. One tech almost hit a patient saying I'm not scared to go to the pen. Letting patients fall bc of being overly medicated and when informed say it's not their job to help them up. I would NEVER recommend this place!! Every single person I was in there with signed an AMA. If you need help DO NOT GO HERE! They don't care about the patients at all! I've never seen anything like it before. It's horrible.

The place is a joke. They have no structure at all. The doctors don't seem to care about any issues you are going threw. Literally you wake up eat breakfast and either sleep.walk the halls or watch TV. You can only sleep so much. I got very stressed because I couldn't sleep my days away lol. Nor was not in any mood to be watching TV especially when your detoxing.just overall a horrible experience. They got some techs that's really fo care about you but they can only do so much for you. And there is the techs that dont give two craps about anyone in the there except themselves

They don’t even deserve a single star rating. They won’t pick up the phone and won’t release my husbands belongings and credit card but they made me sign the paper n took a copy of my ID without releasing anything mind you I waited exactly 4 hours only for me to be returned to told to come the next day. Their level of unprofessional service is very distasteful.
