What Our Patients Say
Hear directly from those who have walked the path to recovery at Live Again Detox. Our patients’ stories highlight the compassionate care, effective programs, and life-changing support they’ve experienced. Let their journeys inspire you as you take your first steps toward healing.
I’m currently 16 months sober, and I owe so much of that to the team at Live Again Detox. This wasn’t my first rodeo, or even my second, but more along the lines of “oh, we doing this again?” I’ve been to some really terrible places in my recovery journey over the last 17 years, but Live Again ranks among the best. From day one, I was treated with care and compassion and I could tell that the clinicians, nurses, and recovery team really cared. They handled me with care and dignity, helping me to feel seen and heard for the first time in a long time.
The catering was top-notch and there were groceries runs about 1x week.
The bedrooms provided were spacious and clean (and there’s even a tv provided!)
The communal areas were always kept well stocked with snacks and drinks. The living room area had video game consoles as well as a large selection of novels to choose from, should you feel so inclined.
There was ample opportunities to attend in-house recovery meetings, such as AA.
There are counselors on site to visit with as needed.
Live Again truly helped me to set a solid foundation for recovery, and I have recommended them several times since I left their care. If you are in need for specialized SUD care, I highly recommend these guys!
Thank you, care team for making me feel like a person again.
