Erin Duncan5 years ago

Dr Maggard and his staff are absolutely amazing. They have helped me tremendously on my recovery journey. As an addict, you're often frowned upon and made to feel like a blacksheep even when seeking treatment..but at… first step from your first appointment you'll be welcomed with open arms and treated like family. If you're ready to take the first step and admit you have a problem and are powerless over your addiction, first step counseling is the place you should call to help in your recovery journey

I did not mean to get all spiritual and sentimental but that's where I'm at and it is pretty amazing and I wouldn't be the one I am today without this place especially Dr maggard. I mean you see me at my worst too whole… transformation and really never judged me. Shout to Cassie, ash, Laura, and Levi n Madeline!!! They're almost like family and I really think they're changing the stigmatization of a clinic I have a clinic and they are so open-minded and we just have these amazing God spiritual talks all the time I mean I've had people call on me there when I was still hanging around people, places, and things and he just saw something in me that I did not and I'm so grateful for that because I have definitely been to some doctors that literally don't care just want your money

A far reaching hand of help. Reasonable pricing and rule followers. The staff are hands down more humble and kind than any other replacement therapy options I've utilized in my struggle. Not only are they open minded if… you ask those folks will actually pray for you by name daily. Thank God the Bible Belt still helps the hope lacking. They see unfilled potential and attempt to give anyone a chance to fight the monkey off their back. Always appreciate the assistance. ALL THE BEST to my fellow troopers trying to pull ourselves up by our bootstraps...again! 🏞🌦🌈🦅🦋🙏🇺🇸🚂

First step has saved my life I was on the path to destruction.. Dr maggard and the faculty are like family to me, I'd be lost without them. I truly am so blessed to have them to help me with out judgement!!! Thanks for… the support and God knows I am so grateful ❤️ y'all, and thanks again for giving me my life back.. sincerely Jessica
