Best Rochester, NY Drug Rehab Centers

OK went in not knowing if the off the chart pain was a gallbladder attack or what was happening yes being in the hallway in the ER for over a day stunk but everyone was kind and I understand they’re trying to attend to everyone the best they can.. I was admitted, but needed to wait for many many many hours to get a room. Ended up with severe, acute pancreatitis got moved to the surgical floor where every nurse was absolutely fantastic and compassionate! Every time I had to ring the bell because of my IV having issues it was only minutes before they came in! So attentive, so caring! I can’t say enough as to how hard these nurses work, and still have a smile on their faces, and really care about their job! My major complaint would be about the food that is given on this floor, or any floor for that matter after being on a water only or a clear liquid diet, and then NPO diet, which is nothing by mouth in the picture I show what they gave me after four days of not eating … a hamburger and tater tots I was disgusted that this is what they would feed somebody Who is moving to a low-fat diet who has pancreatitis and gallbladder stones! Spoke to the dietitian and expressed my disgust! It’s shameful to feed people food that is raised with all of these dies chemical, preservatives loads of sugar and sodium. There’s nothing nutritious whatsoever about this food and you wonder why people are sick.!! After requesting some different type of food, they did bring up a little bit better food basically fruit and vegetables, which I was fine with I wasn’t eating much anyways. Maybe if more people advocate for better food, they might do something about it?

Yes I really appreciate what The Pathways Methodone clinic has saved my life . I am 66 years old and I have been to 2 Rochester Clinics in my life , The first one was Strong ,which I feel was a money grab .If you go to one in the surrounding area of Rochester N.Y. go get on the list to Pathways, it has been the best one for me . My Counselor Roberta Sparkman is very good at her job ,she sure helped me get back on my feet and I go Bi weekly . I nearly died two times maybe more in my life but thanks to Narcan I am on the straight and narrow. The thing is don't lie to your counselor bc they are not stupid , they will find out about your history,I know Roberta had her work out on me. , she is I Believe ( the best counselor there ) or I should say the Best Woman to finally straighten me out , with the help of The good Lord and myself staying straight and Fentanyl free . It used to be Heroin but so many people are dying from this epidemic. So I know this is long but bear with me . You Folks who think having a Methadone clinic in your neighborhood is such a bad thing , think again, it saves lives bc your young children are peer pressured to Drinking and Drug partaking, it starts out my kids don't do drugs and they come home with pinned eyeballs and acting tired or sleeping all the time . Than they get addicted and you don't know what to do . Than you get a call in the middle of the morning from the morgue to identify your child bc they bought a bunch of dope and the dealer told him or her ,just do a little,you will be okay . Heroin folks is not pure heroin the cartels are lacing it with a lot of dangerous fentanyl and even a little bit on your finger nail is too much ,than you sniff it and within minutes,maybe less you feel pretty good, than you start feeling dizzy and if you are alone or you don't have Narcan you die , bc you are so High your brain tells your body not to Breath , so you basically are dead . Just think of that the next time you wish or vote out a methadone clinic . It's more than going there and getting your dose . They teach you ,they know your name bc they really care about you . Pathways is my Blessing and so is God and the Son of God . Look up on you tube how many people die from fentanyl it is staggering and fentanyl is cheap to make plus there is another Beaut in there it is a animal tranquilizer , I believe it's called Tranx , this stuff should not even be touched by the human hand ,cops have died from this and they most wear gloves . Anyway the nursing staff is excellent at Pathways . It covers a lot from mental health problems and a ton of other stuff . I have been in many car accidents so I'm just glad I was giving another chance,Thank you Pathways,Roberta and the wonderful Nursing Staff . Pathways is the Best and I'm a Baby Boomer. I got addicted to everything,there is hope

I’ve never been to East House nor lived in Rochester. But if Ashley still works there I’d like everyone to know she’s absolutely wonderful! When I was homeless in the DV shelter Ashley would call me & give me resources/housing recommendations. One time she even went out her way to ask her supervisor about a DSS question I had. Very kind & extremely helpful, I hope life treats her well 🩵🩷.

Reading some of these reviews honestly breaks my heart. This organization has done and continues to do so much good for so many people. I know Carrie (the CEO), Isha (Director of Agency Advancement), and Amber in Development personally — they are deeply committed, compassionate, and truly passionate about helping others. Their work isn’t just a job, it’s a calling. I first came here when I was just 15 years old, staying at the Lifehouse where I learned life skills that helped shape who I am today. I’m 51 now, and I’ve watched this organization grow and thrive over decades. Please don’t let a few negative reviews from disgruntled former clients paint the whole picture. Instead, look at the positive stories they reflect the heart and impact of this incredible place.
