They just let people suffer. They seem to either ignore you for hours and hours or take pleasure in seeing you suffer. Only go here if you want to be in a world of pain.

Here for Withdrawal Management (Detox). Check in was welcoming, staff are very helpful, extremely friendly and overall awesome! Don’t be shy to ask questions, if you don’t know ask! This is a care facility so it is a hospital setting. Expect hospital food. They’re here to help and can only do so much.
