Our family experience with our munchkin was all traumatic for us and to our little one, awful place, awful people, no etiquette and very unprofessional, all about the money, cannot be trusted at all as to what goes on at this place, it just gave us nothing but spook, sorry had to speak up for the truth about this place.

Staff is very unprofessional wouldn’t recommended this place for dogs. We could hear the whole conversation in the waiting room for another person who was here. Sad part is they act like they are perfect. Or look at my situation as if it is the worse case in the world. I still have my kids and fallow threw with everything that is being asked of me. Sad part is this isn’t even court ordered!!

Had an awful experience I have a court ordered no contact/harassment order against my son's mother's new bf. Iv already missed out on his sports activities because of this man. NOW today this company boasts that they provide no contact between the parents....when I showed up today they were already there and still there and still there some more....so I go inside and ask what's goin on your mission statement clearly says u stay away from situations like this....Robin exclaimed she asked them to stay against company policy apparently and had my son and I sit in a room where they were directly out

If these folks ever talk about recommendations for alcohol and addiction be very aware and speak up. Especially at any hearings that they may be involved in.
Their clinicians are not trained in alcohol or any kind of recovery. Just check their website.
At a recent hearing I heard Andy Werner on the stand making a recommendation for an alcoholic to do a 90/90 and then do 6 meetings for a time, 5 meetings for a time, and slowly working the way down to one meeting a week.
This kind of recommendation will kill more addicts and alcoholics than help them.
THIS WILL NEVER WORK!!
