Top Ranked Drug Rehab Centers In Menlo Park, CA

Best VA hospital in North cal.

I have used a few different VA medical centers in the US. Palo Alto VA medical center is my VA. They cover everything from vascular surgery to a full professional dental department. Also have one of the top rated mental health hospitals in the country. They literally have saved my life 3 times.

I stsyed there for 2 months . Best thing I did was the picc line. So I did not need to get pocked every am. The nurses were fantastic. Dennis santos the picc line guy was awesome very professional and no pain. Thank you den. I lost my phone their and I could not buy a new one. Staff is not allowed to buy you anything.i would consider staying their again..

I rated Villa 5 stars because this was the only place I was able to be comfortable. They had a daily schedule of different things to do. During your stay you can have visitors and after the 72 hr hold give you passes to leave the campus for an hour or so. The staff was great and the patients were also welcoming. If I needed help this is where I would go. Thank you for saving me.. from myself.

Great place helps a lot of people tremendously.

I gotta give these guys 5 stars mainly because the only other review is an (in my opinion) unfair one star rating. I was in Villa Fairmont several years ago and while it may have had some problems (more like a 3.5 or 4 star) it was a place that helped me stabilize in a safe location until I was accepted in a Dual Diagnosis Recovery Home (Bonita House). I currently work in the recovery field and live an independent life. To me that is worth all of the struggles that I have had with any of the programs I have been in. Gotta go through hell before you get to heaven. That's just the way it is when you have a diagnosis that isn't socially acceptable... The system may not be perfect and there is certainly lots of broken components, but we need some kind of system and it does work for some. I know because I'm one.

My time at Silicon Valley Recovery (SVR) was nothing short of life changing. I know that sounds like an exaggeration, but I truly learned so much about myself and my substance abuse. The entire team there are passionate and genuine in the care they provide to the incoming clients, I was easily able to settle in and focus on what I needed to work on. The facility feels like a comfortable home, the food is great, and I'll miss the Bevi machines. The staff make sure to work on your case (e.g., FMLA), and truly allow you to rest as you recover. The Incidental Medicine Services (IMS) staff are also extremely thoughtful and go above and beyond. Besides this, you meet a diverse group of clients (a.k.a. other people in recovery), that help you learn and grow and broaden your sober community. The therapies provided allow you an outlet for your thoughts and feelings as well as provide tools to use to better your approach to sobriety. The sampling of meetings (off site) you attend help you to see what flavors of meetings exist in the community (AA, NA,CMA, CODA). SVR also does an fantastic job with keeping in touch with alumni and coordinate in-person and virtual alumni/client meetings. I would highly, highly, HIGHLY recommend SVR to anyone looking to work on their substance abuse recovery. SVR will always have a special place in my heart.

SVR truly changed my life. The thing that stuck out most to me was how caring and compassionate that staff was starting with the CEO, Sonja. Everyone there genuinely cares about you and does their best to help you feel comfortable and safe and accommodate whatever personal needs you have. I did not originally come here entirely on my own (lots of external pressure) and had thoughts of leaving at first. I am beyond grateful that I didn’t. Once I detoxed and mental clarity returned, I started to listen and engage with the program they have put together and I feel like a genuinely better person for it. Most of the staff are also in recovery themselves and that made a huge difference for me; they understand on a personal level and are beyond supportive. By participating in the program and truly being honest with myself, I’ve reoriented my mind in how I view my relationship with alcohol which is something I never thought would happen. I had totally given up on myself and was resigned to my addiction. SVR gives you the tools and support to change the way you think about your DOC and most importantly yourself. I feel optimistic and hopeful about my life for the first time in many years after my time there. As far as services, I didn’t find anything lacking. All the rooms and facilities were very clean and well kept. They have an attentive 24/7 medical staff onsite, a personal chef that prepares 3 (delicious) meals a day throughout the week, gym with a pool/sauna 3 times a week, equine therapy, and weekend outings doing fun things like Top Golf, hikes, the beach, etc. They even have someone come in to give everyone haircuts every couple of weeks. You also get your cellphone during the day after 10 days, and have landlines for you to use freely whenever you want between 8am and 1030pm to stay in touch. If you are reading this and are considering checking in yourself or a loved one, I highly, highly encourage you to do so if you have the ability to. It may be one of the hardest decisions you make in life but it will also be one of the best. Hope still exists. I thought it didn’t for me but my time here completely changed my perspective on things. Make the phone call! You will thank yourself for it.

Amazing and attentive staff, they genuinely care here and want to set you up for success. They pay attention to everyone’s individual needs while encouraging self advocacy. Great curriculum with a mix of fun and educational groups. They allowed me to crochet during group and use my ipad for art because they know the importance of being able to use hobbies as a form of recovery. Even after leaving they still check in, show support, and help in any way they can. I’ve been to multiple treatment centers and finding a place as generous and attentive as svr is rare. It’s a very small and intimate community that supports each other and I would recommend it to anyone who is on the fence about treatment, they do not force anything on you but will help guiding you in making the decisions that suit you best.

My experience at the hospital was nothing short of excellent. From the reasonable wait time in the ER to the hospital admission, the room, the staff. Everything was perfect. The nurses are wonderful. A special shout out to Nurse Keen who was super attentive, respectful and very patient even when I was getting a little unreasonably impatient. Thank you!

I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to the nurses who cared for me during my hospital stay. In particular, I want to thank Hitome, Shari, and Dave from the labor and delivery unit—Hitome was incredibly attentive and thoughtful, Shari was warm-hearted and kind, and Dave, who kindly stepped in to help, gave me great support during the pushing stage. I am also very grateful to Arlene from the Mother-Baby Unit night shift, whose organized, thorough, and compassionate care made a big difference. In addition, I truly appreciate Suzane, the lactation consultant, for her professional guidance and practical advice on breastfeeding. The excellent service from these nurses is the main reason why El Camino Hospital left me with such a positive impression. That said, I personally felt that, overall, the service level in the Mother-Baby Unit did not match the outstanding care I experienced in the labor and delivery unit—nurses like Arlene, who work efficiently and treat patients with such kindness, are unfortunately too few.

I gave birth to my second baby here and had a really good experience at the hospital. From the nurse who took me to L&D through the emergency entrance to the nurse who helped us with discharge, they were all amazing and highly competent. We were very well taken care of throughout our stay. The lactation services at the hospital are also really good. We got some fantastic support from lactation consultant & NP Cherie. The pediatrician who came to see us, Dr Sandra Lee, was very thorough and eased any concerns or questions we had. One thing to note is that the postpartum room is small. If you have visitors in your room, it may feel cramped. The beds in the postpartum room could also be more comfortable , for both the mother and partner. Overall we were happy with the care at this hospital for Labor and Delivery and I highly recommend this hospital for birth.
