GBBad Recovery experience During my stay at recovery village, my diabetes became the focus and not my recovery. The medical director felt that she could manage my diabetes than me under the direction of my diabetic physician. It got to the point where I couldn't even give myself my insulin in an appropriate fashion. As a type 1 diabetic, this is very upsetting. In addition, some of the "therapists" I felt performed their duties in an inappropriate manner. Putting patients on the spot, using patients to trigger or get someone to "open up" when they were hurting that person. All and all I would never refer anyone to this facility. I feel that medically, I shouldn't have been put in the position I was, where I couldn't consult with my physician, and whenever my doctors office called to help consult about my situation they were "refused". In summation, I do not feel like I "recovered" here. I was simply in a bubble where I couldn't drink.

GBTerrible therapy Terrible therapy. Not 12 step base. Barely CBT. Not DBT. Trauma Therapist tells clinical director everything about patient's session then patient immediately discharged for bogus reasons. Like finical even though patient willing to be a self pay. Patients' rooms horrible. Hospital beds in each room and no televisions. Worst alcoholic and mental health treatment facility.

GBLife changing experience I can't express enough how amazing my time at the recovery village was. I had no idea what to expect before I arrived but within the first few minutes I realized that this was the place that was going to help put my life back on track. The genuine care that I received from the entire staff was extremely comforting at the time I needed it most.

GBHorrible place! There for more than eight different things I was told in order to get me down there. None of them ended up being true. For example, there was a five-star chef. That was not true. I was told I would see my therapist 4 times a week. That was not true. I was told we would have yoga and massages. That was not true. I was told we would have Equine Therapy. That was also not true and the list goes on. They say that in order to persuade people to get there, and it is deceitful. We were locked in when its already tough enough to be sober, and the medical and clinical staff are sub par. There was a boy who overdosed and died in the treatment center while we were there in treatment and it was a horrible experience. I understand that treatment centers are also a business, but this one is a perfect example. It is simply about the money and they don't care. There are a few that therapist there who do care but overall I would recommend going somewhere else.

GBNot 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.
