Today I attended the WeHo Pride Parade Watch event at Creative Recovery LA. The space is airy and…read morewelcoming, the atmosphere feels not only inviting but well lit with natural sunlight and furnished with chic modern decor. Everyone there was very nice and made my friend and I feel right at home. It's on the second floor above the Fresh Corn Grill so it wasn't too hard to find. As we walked in, we were greeted by a friendly pup. We removed our shoes as everyone else had, and entered the main room. There was plenty of tasty breakfast goodies to snack on as folks introduced themselves. The space was clean and smelled of sage which felt rejuvenating. We met the owner, Cory, who invited us to a sound bath session. Some of the folks sitting at the tables let us know to bring tissues... I was not expecting to need them and did not wear waterproof mascara that day, I still grabbed the tissues and went on. The sound bath room was equipped with comfy pillow like seats on the ground. The room had acoustics that transformed me into state where I felt like my seated body was one with the music. As the sounds continued I felt a deep connection with myself that I could not describe, which made me glad I listened and grabbed those tissues. I am thankful for Cory and the staff here, that sound bath was the best thing that's happened to me all year. It was better than any meditation or reiki session out there. I cannot thank you all enough. If you or someone you know is struggling with mental health or addiction and in need of help unlocking those feelings to unblock your spirit, this is the place for you. Cory and team will help you find the version of yourself you've been looking for and help you release any feelings that may have been constipating your soul.

I was in the PHP program (in person 5 days a week, 3 group sessions per day, and 1-2 individual…read moresessions each week) looking for help with severe depression, anxiety and partially losing my hearing suddenly in my late 20s. This is my experience and why I STRONGLY urge people to proceed with caution if contemplating looking to Cast Centers for help during a vulnerable time in your life: THE GOOD The one positive thing about Cast was the ability to connect with other humans who were experiencing their own struggles and trying to heal collectively in a group setting. I was able to connect to people who understood me in a time when I needed it; that is the only positive I have to give this place, and the reason I gave 2 stars instead of 1. THE BAD Throughout the day, you will listen to a guided meditation on YouTube or Pandora, do a worksheet that was clearly printed from a psychology website, watch a Ted Talk/inspirational video, and go around the circle and answer how it made you feel. While there was a therapist present, I rarely felt that professional input was provided to a lot of what people were saying they needed help with. I personally learned more from the other people in group with me than the therapists involved. This place isn't cheap-and most of the time it felt like when you had a substitute teacher wheel the TV into class. THE UGLY Mental health providers aren't perfect and don't know all the answers; however, showing effort and that they care about you as a person is a critical part of therapy that I DID NOT receive during my time at Cast. From day 1 I said I needed help processing a condition I have that caused me to partially lose my hearing. I wasn't feeling supported after being in the program for 3 weeks and asked BOTH of the therapists assigned to me if they had done any research on my condition, Googled hearing loss, or even watched a movie about deaf people so maybe they could help me and both of their responses: no. Secondly- I experienced a hearing emergency WHILE under care at Cast and updated them about what was going on. In order to preserve hearing, I requested that we do not watch or listen to anything in group sessions while on strict orders from my doctor to remain in quiet locations for 1 week. The very next day- they played a 40 minute Ted Talk video, which made my issue worse and need to leave for the day (which they reported as me not completing the session that day). They showed zero care to a very simple disability accommodation, and it was made clear they are not prepared to assist people with disabilities. The staff at Cast seems woefully under qualified to handle those who may be in a crisis period in life, especially those with unique circumstances. Also- beware about Dr. Mylett, something is very off putting with her (other people I met in the program expressed both of these things as well, which is why I included it). While this is my experience, it shows the lack of central characteristics that are needed to help people in their tough times in life. My personal advice is to continue your search elsewhere, but to each their own. Be blessed!

Thank God, somehow, my Family found Dr. Calvert @ "Revive Detox" in West LA. My Son dropped me there directly from the hospital tore up. I slept in a real bed, Josh cooked excellent food daily and they loved me back to feeling like I was a special person. Once my mind & body could talk and walk she started therapy, meetings gave me more attention than I deserved. Dr. C and her and staff put me back together medically, physically and emotionally. It took 6 weeks of her Professional patients to bring me back to life and I have realized how fortuanate I am to have met her. If anyone is hesitating on "surrender" Dr. C. & Josh & Staff will make you comfortable, rested, loved and detoxed ready to get your life back. I've been to a dozen detoxes in the past, 56 years old. I've been lied to by intake, telemarketers, showed up, walked out, name it. I've seen it. She is the only one that told the truth (no sales pitch) and honored her word to the end. She handled the highest level of care, experience, love and professional knowledge. I now have approx. 6 months of clean time because She gave me a true & valuable life lesson of how to live. To this point I have followed her advise and things have turned around more than the 90% when I arrived.

Although I still have some healing to go, I do feel like this treatment helped speed up the healing process quite a bit. I went to OxyRenew the day after this bite happened, and I'm so glad I did. Only 6 days later and I'm already so relieved with the results. The pictures I include are my 1st session compared to my 6th session.

It's a lot of unnecessary back-and-forth to schedule for a loved one with some confusing tech issues during the intake process. The staff was proactive and courteous in the beginning and after paying the bill, they act like they don't care. The doctor is nice enough to address this licensing issue in the beginning of the session and offered a refund to avoid liability as well as follow up by email. As for the billing issue, I wrote to the manager I'm fine with partial refund for the doctor's time. I've followed up with the manager and no email followup at all for at least a couple months now... Please avoid, especially if you are responsible for caring for others. The people working here do not care about patients. It's frustrating when the Dr. is fine but the admin staff is incompetent and ghost on you. It's seriously unprofessional.

Summary: In my plentiful and diverse experience with medical providers, Dr. Peterson is truly elite…read morein his field. This claim is easy for me to support. As a person in recovery, I have been in the care of a lot of doctors. Being a doctor is a lot of work, but being a doctor for an addict requires an extra level of understanding. It takes patience and quite a bit of extra time to figure out a patient's more sensitive needs and often long and detailed drug history. I have been seeing Dr. Peterson since I moved to LA in the spring of last year, so for over a year now. I notice a stark difference between his methods of practice and addictions specialists I have seen in the past. Dr. Peterson has really taken the time to get to know my personal history with medications I have been prescribed in the past and double and triple check my subjective experiences with these medications while in addition to my medical record. Often for addicts, medication is an emotional subject; Dr. Peterson's therapeutic communication is superior to all other doctors I have seen since shifting from regular family physicians to addiction specialists and I have always felt comfortable and never embarrassed in his care. Dr. Peterson has gone above and beyond to get to know me as a patient and a person. He knows addiction treatment is more dynamic process than writing patient prescriptions. He understands addiction as an incurable disease that requires lifelong treatment and tackles this truth head-on with a contagiously positive and motivating attitude. It is a fact that Dr. Peterson has improved my quality of life not only through his care as a medical provider but also as a role model. Another point I would like to note is that he remains conscious of a patient's financial situation, another example of his ethical excellence.

I am a 34 year old, sexually active gay man who gets regular STD screenings and work up every 90 days for ongoing medication called Prep (pre-exposure prophylaxis) which prevents the spread and transmission of HIV. My insurance just switched so my 90 days was coming up and I needed to refill my prescription. Additionally, I was having some minor symptoms that coincided with a recent sexual experience related to my backside. When I requested specific STD testing for these symptoms, just in case, Dr. Ramin seemed confused as to why I would have sexual symptoms in my backside. I had to explain that I engage in anal sex, which felt embarrassing and obvious. He then dismissed my concerns without offering another explanation and launches into a lecture on promiscuity, citing prep as an excuse for unsafe behavior. He told me a tangential story about a woman getting pregnant from a one night stand which felt odd and out of nowhere, and used the phrase "just because you have a parachute doesn't mean you should jump out of a plane" and continued to reference my behavior as overly promiscuous. Finally, and most egregiously, he did not give me a rectal swab which is standard practice in every prep panel I've ever taken (been getting tested every 3 months for 6 years - blood sample, urine sample, throat and rectal swabs are all standard). I left with continued symptoms and had to go to the free clinic to get a rectal swab, still uncertain if I had an STD or another explanation. This whole experience made me feel shamed, discriminated against, and was entirely unhelpful for very basic care. Needless to say, I will not be returning to Dr. Ramin.
