Not the best money can buy There are far worse places to be, I will not say I regret going here. If you need to go to treatment for legal reasons this place is perfect. Their "therapists," are mostly students, and their mood greatly impacts how they interact with you. Some of the directors at this location are also pharm reps, and if the one of the directors is required to lead a group session, they will be sure to let you know how beneath them it is to do so, I believe one woman named Courtney mentioned this when she introduced herself before leading a group session. They will keep you as long as possible to try to get as much money from your insurance as possible. I do have to say that the staff that you interact with daily, they are called behavioral techs, are actually really helpful, and most of the techs are in recovery as well, of course with many years of clean time. Oh, and I'm pretty sure my credit card information was taken by one of the staff members while they had it locked away in their "safe." Definitely protect your personal information if you plan on seeking treatment here.

Good treatment, poor facitlities. The care and treatment was very good. The building has terrible leaks and smells like sewer all the time. Ceiling tile are wet, carpets wet against the walls. Also certain staff have very poor people skills and are quite rude to the patients, acting as if they are better than them.

Rehab profiteers. Pretty gross. This place might be great for people with money who don't want to interact with the hoi polloi. Poor need not apply. This doesn't necessarily mean that this place is bad, but it's definitely not in the biz of helping people. They want your money. The end.

Detox too fast. I loved most of the staff. However, I left early because I felt the detox process was too rapid. I believe I would have been successful had someone listened to me and adjusted the process accordingly. Other than that, I would recommend Palmer Lake and would like to return for treatment as I am still looking for help. The anxiety I was experiencing caused me to behave poorly and was the reason I left the facility far earlier than I should have.

Billing and intake a horrible experience Intake was an awful experience. Florida agent assured that we had a bed available and we arrived to a full institution. Also, agent did not inform us that she wouldn't be admitted if blood alcohol level exceeded a certain level so they sent us to hospital for detoxification.
