I really don't understand why this place has nothing but one star ratings. This has to be people who just don't want to comply with the rules. If you follow the rules, you won't have any problems here.
This place honestly saved my life. It's hard to be honest and write about this stuff, but it's also critically important. I was on suboxone for months and kept relapsing because it wasn't enough for me. I knew something had to change. I didn't want to keep relapsing. I wanted to get off of heroin, and stay off for good.
So I found myself at Mission Treatment Center. I couldn't get in my first day because I needed a letter from my suboxone provider saying I had discontinued suboxone, and that's fair. So I got the letter and returned the following day. Intake process was about two and a half hours. I got to see the clinic director, and my new counselor.
I got to choose which group therapy I partake in once a week. Right now group therapy is done over the phone due to covid19, which is kind of awkward, but I understand why they're doing it.
Seeing my counselor and having weekly group therapy helps with personal accountability.
Going in every day for dosing is a pain, but it also helps with accountability. I look forward to when I've been there long enough that I've proven myself trustworthy to be able to have take home doses. It's a process we all have to go through, and I respect the process.
I feel a lot better on the methadone than the suboxone, and I haven't relapsed. I'm so happy about this.
I really appreciate Mission Treatment and all they do to keep me and others clean and off of heroin and other opiates.
It'll be even better when they get their Medicaid system back up. It's $9/day self pay, but when they start taking Medicaid again, it should only be $10/week! Heck yeah.
Facility director is Doris, she's very sweet. My counselor is Alycia, and she's incredibly compassionate and kind.
The nurses are all cool.
If you're secretly struggling with an opiate addiction, and you're ready to get serious about quitting with methadone maintenance treatment, I strongly recommend you give Mission Treatment a chance.
They've changed my life for the better, and helped me get and stay off heroin.
YouI have to wear a mask, and only a certain number of people are allowed in the building at a certain time right now, so right when they open or right before they close isn't the ideal time to go unless you want to wait in line, but the lines move fairly quickly. read more
