horrible!!! don't go here!!! they didn't take my insurance. they charge 41,500.00 a month for what!!! they would not help me with my medication. they asked me to leave after 2 weeks and they offered me no refund of my money. they grossly mishandled my medical situation. i ended up in the hospital for 3 days. 6 bags of antibiotics and 1 shot and 7 days of antibiotics 4 times a day, diarrhea city, acutely dehydrated with the doctors fearing for my kidneys, i could have died. i was so terribly swollen in my feet and ankles and legs and all they could do was tell me that they couldn't handle my medication situation and told me that i had to go! on top of that, shoddy, rude little thing, told a prospective client that my room was the messy room. of all things, that was one of the main thing that i was there for and what do they have you agree to in any recovery setting, please don't talk about others!!! i left her a message about no refund but no reply, of course! the phone number that i found on line was disconnected! also, most of the staff are nice especially the men who work at night, they were always ready to help me out in the middle of the night!!! but some of the staff were horrible and not conducive to recovery one little bit!!! one of them was complaining one day about her job and another one was telling her she should stay, that it was a good gig! she was looking for a job! how terribly inappropriate around clients!!! i'm not surprised that she still works there! what a b....!!! i was so hoping that she would quit!!! also, i had a painful cracked crown and i finally, after 2 long, painful weeks, got them to make a dentist appointment for me. the afternoon of the appointment, they would not let me go!!! the 3 b...... that were "working "said they weren't feeling it!!! please pardon my language. i'm sorry!
what the f...!!! one kind woman that worked mornings was kind enough to offer to stay late and drive me but shoddy wouldnt let me go!!! one last thing, i made a lot of friends while i was there. i said good bye to them all. i wanted nothing to do with shoddy and i had made that clear to the staff. shoddy had completely and grossly for no good reason traumatized me completely and had retraumatized from old severe and extremely painful past traumatic experiences. i was all packed up and she knocked on the door. i didnt know that it was her. if i had, i dont think that i would have let her in. i said come in, i was shocked and horrified. she didnt apologize at all, not one little bit of humility. mind you, she is supposedly in a 12 step program!!! scarry!!! being in recovery myself, i let her in. she wanted a f......hug of all things!!! i was polite and i hugged her. i felt sick to my stomach. i felt like i was going to throw up!!! i felt so very angry and terribly violated!!! ich ich ich!!! she reminded me of erica kane on the old soap opera , all my children!!! not the beautiful and amazing susan luchi!!! no, she reminded me of the horrible, evil, back stabbing, sickly pathetic and vile erica kane. long live all my children and the super, beautiful, inside and out, susan luchi!!!
no thanks to my former therapist, alisa birgy, who harassed me, bullied me and talked to my ex husband, to force me into going to this dreadful hell hole!!!
please think long and hard before you even consider going to this place!!! there was a prospective client looking around when i was leaving. i wanted to tell her and her parents not to have her go there. i didnt say anything. i wish that i had. thank you for reading this. there was another client that had a similar experience with shoddy. he was such a kind soul. it was so hard to watch him get traumatized and retrained like that by her. he is the angel that told me what she said about my messy room. thank you!!! have a great day everyone!!! ps the clients were the very best!!!
thank you so very much for helping me survive 2 long and extremely difficult and stressful and exhausting weeks!!! all the best wishes for your future life and your sobriety!!! i really enjoyed making the brackets for you guys!!! take care and peace always to all of you my dear friends!!! love always, sara read more
