I would shout from the rooftops if I… I would shout from the rooftops if I could to anyone and everyone who is looking to get clean from OPIATES to go to ANR. They treated me the dignity and respect that other programs failed to do. They help me realize that I am not an addict, but someone who had trauma & became physically dependent on this drug. I tried many treatment options, and nothing compares to ANR. I highly recommend that anyone go to ANR over any other treatment options.

God bless you all Last month, I traveled to Florida for treatment. ANR was my final attempt after numerous failed efforts. Despite trying various treatments, I consistently relapsed, as my urge to use was always stronger than my desire to be healthy and free from medication. As a pain patient, I felt let down by my doctor who left me in a difficult situation, cutting off my opioid prescription without offering any guidance on managing my addiction. ANR not only treated me but also restored my hope. They treated me with respect and understanding, seeing me as a patient rather than a problematic individual who needed to change their personality to fit back into society. God bless you all.

How this is not everywhere? ANR seems almost magical to me. Let's start with the positives: I am free from opioids. This doesn't just mean just my body is free of opioids (unlike detox and other treatments that they just wash them out). It means that I, Aya - in mind, body, and soul, am completely free from opioids. Yes, I have no cravings at all. Not even a little bit. I could go 200 years without even thinking about taking them. This is a feeling I've never experienced in my life. The negatives? Well, it is costly and requires a trip to Florida, as ANR clinics aren't widely available yet. Also, you will be extremely tired for the first 3-4 days, and you'll need to push yourself to move, eat, etc to hasten recovery. After about 4-5 days (though this can vary depending on your medical history, to my cousin it took around a week), you'll start to feel much better, blessed, healthy, and ready to take on life. A huge thank you to the ANR team - and of course, Dr. Waismann, for making this treatment available to the world.

FRAUD ALERT FRAUD ALERT: ANR's claim of returning the brain to its pre-addiction state is pure fiction. The ANR Method absolutely, definitively does not return the brain to its pre-addiction state. It's an Ultra-Rapid Detox, nothing more. If you want to see reviews that aren't fake, go to TrustPilot. Since undergoing treatment in May, I've experienced five months of pure hell from post acute withdrawal symptoms. They use a really crappy, dirty old hospital out in rural Florida, awful place. Horrid doctor- Kabemba was pleasant enough prior to the procedure, but in the months since he has been hostile, defensive, rude and condescending. Non-existent aftercare- the 'nurses' are worthless if you need anything beyond a monthly Naltrexone refill. To date I've spent an additional $13,000 out of pocket on NAD+ liquid subQ injectable solution, to manage the withdrawals and cravings they assured me I wouldn't experience. If you are considering ultra-rapid detox, go literally anywhere else. I am in the process of filing a lawsuit against ANR, along with complaints to the DOJ, the Florida AG's office, the HHS, HHS-OIG, and the FTC. The basis of my lawsuit isn't that the procedure didn't work. It didn't- but that's beside the point. ANR makes demonstrably false claims on their website- claims that can easily be disproven by simply asking very specific questions and demanding very specific answers. ANR's claims of magically restoring the brain to its pre-addiction state are demonstrably, provably false. ANR's treatment is nothing more than an ultra-rapid detox that differs in no significant way from any other URD under IV sedation. They all use the same medications and methods. They detox you under IV sedation, then put you on oral Naltrexone for a year to manage physical cravings and withdrawal symptoms. Ask yourself one simple question: if the ANR treatment completely heals the brain, returning it to the 'pre-addiction state', then why put patients on Naltrexone for a year? Naltrexone manages cravings and withdrawal symptoms. If your brain is fully restored and healed by the treatment, then why would you need Naltrexone for a year? I'll tell you why. The treatment does not restore the brain to it's pre-addiction state. Full stop. Their claims are complete fiction. Don't take my word for it. Ask them to tell you specifically what medication they use to remove excess endorphin receptors and jump-start the brain's endorphin production. Ask them to tell the name of the specific medication they use in their IV sedation that isn't used by every other URD on the planet. You won't get an answer because there is no difference between the "ANR Method" and every other ultra-rapid detox on the planet. There is no 'miracle cure' of the brain. It's hogwash. ANR's "Method" is an ultra-rapid detox that does NOTHING to bypass post acute withdrawal syndrome. Remember the expression "If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, then baffle them with bullsh*t"? Well, that's what ANR's website does. There's a lot of very scientific language describing the problem and promising a 'miracle cure'... but they never specifically state what medication they use that miraculously cures the brain and restores it to its pre-addiction state. The website does not specifically mention what medication is used to magically cure your brain from years of opioid abuse, because it doesn't. Full stop. It's a complete scam. If you pin them down for details on how they differ from other URDs, they'll tell you they use lighter sedation and pull the patient out before the patient is 'overblocked'. While there may be some short-term benefit to that, it doesn't do anything to remove excess endorphin receptors or kickstart the brain's natural endorphin production. It does nothing to prevent post acute withdrawal symptoms. Post-Script: ANR's response to my review was to claim that if they were a scam, they wouldn't have treated 25K patients. Hello... how many people did Bernie Madoff scam before he was held to account? Their reply suggests that any patient who experiences post-procedure PAWS is at fault for not complying with instructions. In my case- they know better. They have my records. I followed instructions to the T and went over/above on exercise and eating right. I was in hell for months post-procedure and couldn't even get a call from Andre Waissmann. Dr. Kabemba called one time, and was rude and defensive and offered no assistance at all. ANR's claims are fraudulent and their treatment is profit-centered. Once they get a patient's money and put them through the procedure, the patient is literally on their own.

Would highly recommend, despite some room for improvement. I have mixed feelings about ANR. On the positive, I was told I would no longer crave opioids after the treatment. Its been almost a month since my procedure and the total absence of physical and psychological cravings is noteworthy! I'd tried many times before to stay clean on suboxone but the cravings would become too much and I'd relapse. ANR works like a miracle in that sense, my mind is clear and opioids pose no attraction. However, the total lack of aftercare is annoying. I wish it felt like they cared how Im doing. Also, I feel they glaze over what to expect afterwards, making the process seem so sterile and easy. I suffered a co-occurring disorder, like so many people do. Which perhaps is why I had a major mental breakdown after my treatment, just on the knowledge that my crutch was actually gone and not coming back. I'd used drugs to self medicate for so long that the experience of being fully anesthetized one day, to completely clean the next was entirely overwhelming! No one prepared me (or my mom who chaperoned) for the potential of a mental health episode immediately post treatment. Like what I suffered to the extent I had to have a second chaperone fly in from CA & stay 2 extra nights in FL. They dont screen for co-occuring disorders whatsoever and I feel thats irresponsible. But even had I known it could happen, or the myriad of other undesirable side-effects I experienced, such as 5 days in diapers due to fecal incontinence, I still WOULD have done the treatment. ANR, you dont need to make it seem better than it is. It's seriously so good, why not provide clients with a comprehensive understanding of the possible acute reactions? It would only serve to make a groundbreaking treatment even better. I dont mean to sound ungrateful, there's no denying that ANR gave me a several month head start at recovery. Left to detox on my own, without replacement, there's no doubt in my mind that I'd have been arrested or institutionalized within a couple days.
