Excellent program and I cannot express enough how helpful and genuinely caring all the staff was during my stay. Lots of love
Lead recovery is a healing community that goes above and beyond to support your recovery. I met so many staff who carried so much about our progress. Within my stay, I learned life, skills, therapeutic skills, and so… much more. I found peace again. Destiny, Melissa, and Bianca are caring, kind and exceptional staff members!
I recently completed the 30 day program here and it the best treatment i have ever gotten. The staff is amazing and treat you like family very loving and caring. They give out all the tools you need to stay sober and… clean i would definitely recommend lead recovery if you need help.
This program is amazing!!! The staff is caring, attentive, and truly have passion for what they do. From dealing with mental issues to teaching you about substance abuse. They give you the tools and knowledge to… succeed. Give you many options for next level of treatment and help you get there. Gym 3 times a week, outside AA meetings, in-house panels, zoo, the beaches, and putt putt golf are only a few of the activities we did. Amazing case worker, house manager, and all staff (unless you're a Cowboys fan 😆 (jk))! Awesome therapist and psychiatrist! The facility is really nice and clean too. Nice pool with fruit trees all around! 10/10 recommend. I could go on for an hour on why this place is amazing, intimate, and spot on what I needed. Overall, I am sincerely greatful for this program and would recommend to anyone wanting to turn your life around. Thank you for all your help JT, Ruthie, Roger, James, Karena, Patrick, Megan, Shaun, Dr.Sarah and Katherine! I couldn't have done it without y'all. Much respect and gratitude!
My son went to Lead Recovery and he had an amazing case worker! Roger, was very kind and caring and did everything he could to give my son all the tools he needed. Unfortunately, my son needed a higher level of care, so… it didn’t work out for him there, however, it was not for lack of care or trying! Roger went above and beyond! I was very impressed with both his level of communication and compassion! The staff was great overall!
I have struggled with addiction for the better part of 15 years and have been to countless different treatment centers and detox's . The six bed detox /RTC program they have a long with with seeing the same lead staff… members on daily basis makes the treatment very personal allowing for a grate deal of individualized treatment all the staff at LEAD recovery took me i when I was a chemically dependent, scared, and totally defeated and believed in me when I had nothing to offer but potential. There's a lot that can be said about every member of the the team at LEAD recovery as well as the incredible facility but even more importantly helped save my life when I had lost the will to do so my self I owe the whole team a debt I could never repay
Detox can be very hard, the staff made sure to meet all of my needs. I was acknowledged of my addiction, behaviors etc. They took me out to AA meetings, & other fun things as well. I got taken care of in my time of… need, I would recommend this place to anyone.
This place is good if you are trying to get your life back together and stay sober. They are very knowledgeable and the staff Luis, JT, Roger, Jason and everyone really treats you well. I recommend Lead for anyone… needing help.
Lead recovery has helped me so much with my Family my childrenThe staff is always there to helpThrough a difficult timeThank you
I want to thank Luis and the lead recovery staff. Rodger J t and Nicole sorry if I missed any other names. I'm so forever grateful to you and your staff you helped give my son the confidence and made him feel safe and… went Way beyond any detox. As far as people in recovery you walk the way you talk and you are genuine. You found a place for him to go to continue his treatment and made sure it was a great fit. I would definitely recommend lead recovery to anyone that is serious about changing their life. Again thank you to all this staff thanks for all the love
Amazing Staff!!
Wonderful place to detox and recover. Great staff and facility. Best place to go if your willing to make a change.Would recommend to anyone to have a better life for themselves.. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I’m editing my review today to share that after a relapse I chose to return to LEAD knowing the great care I had before for 27 days. I knew I’d be ok there…I was there for 7 days and the fridge was empty nothing to… drink except milk and water, ONLY frozen foods, a house full of clients detoxing and no healthy food! A/C didn’t work, while they had an A/C unit in the office I couldn’t sleep with the 80* temp in the house. Nichole and JT are STILL amazing btw! But as I discharged due to these conditions they let us take all the stuff in our room outside then REFUSED to give us our phones keys to my car and our license and money! Said it was “against policy” knowing we have 0 family out here and a flat tire they PROMISED to fix and I had the money the whole time! After saying I’d call the cops they told me to call them and wouldn’t let me use their phones or give me mine and it was 80 some degrees outside! When I went to the neighbors to have them dial 911 they allowed me thee keys and phones. But still kept our luggage and purses and perfume! Idk what why or when they became so weird over there but I didn’t have to be hungry or hot. I chose to leave and I have 0 respect for that program and the guy that is running it! I hate that too, but how do you have a client fir 27 days and do so well and then she goes back and it’s not at all the same???
Trying to find a detox rehab for my son was overwhelming however when I talked to Luis I knew lead recovery was where my son needed to be. My son went through the 7 day detox with love and care. Roger was by far the… best case worker to talk to daily or multiple times a day (sorry roger) I can honestly say if you want to have staff that takes amazing care of you during detox this is the place you want to go. My son is now on to a step down facility and is 21 days clean. Thanks to lead recovery
Just wanna say thank you to the entire staff of lead recovery for my awesome journey with them. The only time it was unpleasant, is when I was being unpleasant. Thanks to they’re Genuine determination and care for me, I… stood to get the help I desperately needed. Very well rounded program and structure. At the same made me feel at home. I do highly recommend this rehab for anyone Genuinely trying to change their life’s. Special thank you to Luis, JT, Karina, Nicole, and Leo for all they did for me and all they will continue to do for those that want a better way of living. God bless you all my brothers and sisters….
I went through they detox I had a really great experience . The staff were awesome great program. I been a gnarly heroin and meth addict fir years been in out of treatment 30 plus times it wasn't till after going here… did I finally decide to give it a break and give my self a chance and transition to php
