When you are putting money toward a family member’s health, happiness and wellbeing, you need to make sure you’re making the right decision for your Saint George Island drug and alcohol addiction treatment center. While the most prudent way to go may still be to call our hotline advisors so they can discuss your personal requirements, seeing the reviews and ratings on some of the addiction treatment programs near you is another great place to get started.
When I got here I was so mad and angry at the world. I had a choice between prison or rehab and I really preferred to go to prison because all the horror stories I had heard about rehab. But my counselor opened my mind about rehab and I chose to come to River Oaks because of the relaxing environment. They treated me like a person when I came here, they treated every person like a human being and cared about everyone as an individual. My doctor Amisha Shah was the first doctor I ever met who really cared about how I felt. She asked me about my symptoms and did everything she could to help me. She actually gave me options and educated me on what my options were. She helped me make educated decisions about my medication and my treatment which gave me the choice and made me feel like a person. The client all greeted me when I got here. My Big Brother found me and asked me how I was doing and if I needed help. He smiled at me and I remember feeling like myself again and coming out of my shell. Juan the driver talked to me the whole way on the drive here. This was my first time in treatment and I was really scared. He was so welcoming and understanding and really helped me address my fears about treatment. The fact that he's in recovery really speaks highly of River Oaks because it shows they care about people in recovery. Tony and Dimitrius had amazing groups. They helped me learn skills I need to change and continue a better life, work on relationships with my family. I feel like I can have relationships again. When I first got here I felt so small, now I know I can have a better life and that I'm worth it and that I deserve this. I will never forget my experience here and have nothing but great things to say about my stay here. The facility was so beautiful, it was like passages Malibu. Any problem I had got addressed right away and I was treated like a person. I will tell all my friends about this place and I will never forget my experience at River Oaks.
The staff at this facility is top notch and have all been through recover themselves. Caring, efficient, understanding, Not as many beds open as would like to be offered.
