Please, do not go there! Do not send your family there! The…read moreabsolute worst care from the primary doctors, psychiatrist and med pushers! I watched women detox in their beds, soiling their cloths and spoken about terribly where clients were in ear range! I myself was able to detox without meds from alcohol and amphetamines. I kept myself upbeat and as positive as I could as I witnessed the women around me battle getting proper meds, being pushed out after 2 weeks for doing so "well". I had a medical issue and spent 72 hours with zero resolution or even appointment from the primary care giver, however the nursing staff and the daily behavioral health techs were amazing with the exception of one. Nancy who absolute should not be employed there, as she was aggressive,non approachable and judgemental as she stated this to our entire group that if she didn't "vibe" with a client she refused to care for them and would have another staff member care for them. This caused massive insecurities with many of the women including myself. The person you spend a majority of your day with sharing to the entire group that she would refuse to give care if she didn't "vibe"!!!! Disgusting! At the 72 hour mark when I absolutely needed to be seen by a medical provider other than the housing nurse I demanded to go to the ER. I was dropped off, left with no phone, no money and the hospital Dr stated I was an alcoholic and addict therefore this was my issue. He never touched me nor cared to listen to my current health condition which was the cause of my symptoms. When discharged the hospital instructed me to wait outside or in the er waiting room. I waited 1 hour and 45 minutes after discharge before I was picked up! This was not the fault of the staff person responsible for picking me up, it was due to the fact they are under staffed. When my husband and I spoke with admissions our number 1 concern was my safety as well as being sure there would not be any men in the house, which i was promised numerous times there would not be. This was a lie, each night with the exception of 2 out of my 8 it was a man, a large man. When I addressed this concern with the higher up, I was told they were professionals as well as GAY! WHAT??! However, this gentleman is married to a daytime BHT at the same house and recently had a baby together! My addiction and trauma was due to a man from my past.. I did not sleep, even though we were demanded to go to bed at 10:30pm..as they call LIGHTS OUT! Doors unlocked, no security on property. When I addressed this I was told we were in the middle of nowhere and noone would bother us! Wouldn't you think it would be the opposite?! After 8 days of pure hell even while I gave it my all, I discharged myself and was driven off property to the "admissions" parking lot. When my Uber wasn't able to be arrive for over an hour the supervisor called the BHT who transported me and told her to drop me off at the love's truck stop 5 miles down the road. When I advocated for myself with disbelief that they would demand her to do this, they then offered for me to come back to the original ranch house and wait there! The BHT was extremely supportive of me and waited for my Uber to confirm a pickup time which was 1.5 hours later! A truck stop..the number 1 sex trafficking location in the world..I was left there! Overall Uber nor lyft could not pick me up because it was so far out of the way and no drivers were available. After 3 hours at the truck stop I hitched a ride with a husband and wife in the back of their truck (bed of their truck) on the interstate 13 miles away to the closest motel to the love's trucks top which my husband booked for me. At 10 o'clock at night! A truck stop, then in the bed of a strangers truck to attempt to get to safety! My husband drove 10 hours to come get me because airline tickets were 900 dollars..we are still currently in the car driving home back to the safety of my family in Florida..thank god! Please, please I beg you do not go there or send your family there! The worst experience of my life..and if that doesn't keep me sober NOTHING will! Again Nancy the non licensed Behavioral Health Tech who is a recovered addict who DID NOT ATTEND ANY TYPE OF REHAB is an awful disgusting person! Awful! Shame on you and I pray to my higher above you lose your job so you no longer have the power to intimidate and torture women who are fighting their hardest to get and stay sober! You're a trigger and you should never ever be allowed to work with human beings or animals for that matter ever again! Kristin, Trinity, Margarita, Heidi, Candice, Tabitha Elisa,omg Claire, Dan, Mitchell, Kathy Stevie,Scarlett, Amber,Destiny, Jordan, Elise, Daphany, Sarah god bless you all, you are why I made it as long as I did! My your lives be filled with joy, blessings and all the love you deserve! You are special people and the world needs more of you! Brandi, get a new profession!

I left The Ranch and attempted suicide two days later. A requirement for stay was to stop taking my…read moreanxiety medication. Most of my clothes were taken away when I arrived and they were items I was told over the phone that I could bring. I had to cook my own meals plus a dinner for the entire house which was 20 girls plus house mothers. This is a lot for someone who could barely function and required treatment. I was there for 10 days and not allowed to make phone calls. None! The therapist told my husband I was not doing well and needed a higher level of care. He then left for the weekend. I was nearly catatonic and could barely form a sentence. I tried talking to the house, mothers, a nurse, the doctor, therapist, and the head therapist and I could not get the help I needed. I'm still being treated for PTSD from staying at The Ranch and it has been seven years. The only time I felt safe was my last night in the infirmary before I left. This is not a place for someone with any sort of mental disorder. It is more of a recovery center for addiction. It is a holistic approach to healing. Please read reviews carefully before you go. I was struggling from grief, depression, and anxiety. I was desperate and didn't know where to turn. I thought The Ranch was my answer and it was almost my ending.

I am very disappointed with Dr. Mcdonald. I began seeing her a couple of years ago when I first…read moremoved to Nashville. From the beginning I felt she was rather unfriendly and someone I was hesitant to speak to about medical issues. I had already tried a couple of physicians prior to Dr. McDonald and was getting discouraged with the process so I decided to continue seeing her. Recently I was sick and scheduled an appointment with her. I cancelled due to feeling too ill to drive the 30 minutes to her office and asked to reschedule. I ended up cancelling the rescheduled one after finding an over the counter medicine to combat the illness. Today I came home to a letter stating Dr. McDonald would no longer be my physician due to no-show appointments. The appointments that I called prior to and let the front office know that I would not be attending due to my illness subsiding. This upset me greatly because the process of finding another physician (especially with a long list of medication and mental health diagnoses) can be very stressful. The judgement and pretentiousness of that office astounds me, and the fact that a patient can be dismissed after rescheduling/canceling an appointment is baffling.

A few years back I found myself in a pinch when my PCP had to suddenly retire due to an illness,…read moreand I had not yet found a new PCP to replace her. A Minute Clinic NP referred me to Dr. McDonald for a follow-up. I'll admit, I was very hesitant as I wanted to stay within the Vandy Group of physicians. But feeling as though I had nothing to lose, I gave her a shot. For roughly two years, Dr. McDonald and her staff provided me with great care. It was easy to get an appointment on the fly, as well as navigate to and from appointments. Unfortunately, this came to an abrupt end. I found myself reminding the staff over and over again of my allergy to one particular medication. Lo and behold, right before a holiday weekend, I drove to the pharmacy to pick up my prescription her office had sent over. The pharmacist advised his records indicated I was allergic to the medication prescribed, and he refused to fill it. Sure enough, it was the same medication I had reminded the office of on numerous occasions. So there I was...a few minutes after 5pm on a Friday afternoon...frustrated. I took the pharmacist's advice and called the doc's answering service. I advised the call taker of the situation, but she advised she could not page the physician on call over prescription matters. I reiterated to the call taker that the office had already called in the prescription (non-narcotic by the way), but had made a mistake. The call taker then again refused. Five days later when the office reopened, the office staff seemed anything BUT concerned over the matter, and half-ass apologized. As a result, I shall no longer use or recommend their services.

My doc is located in…read moreBirmingham and I'm in Huntsville, so I needed to find a clinic that could administer the fluids for me. Not many places in town will do hydration only AND take insurance, but Synergy got me in right away and I've been coming weekly ever since. The staff is so kind and friendly, and they all do such a great job. There's always a doctor or NP who comes to check on me before they start the IV, which I appreciate. I never have to wait long at all and I've never had problems with scheduling - they can always fit me in the schedule. The office is clean, the chairs are comfy, it's an all-around great place. I highly recommend.

It was highly upsetting and frustrating today at my appointment when the older male doctor (wrongfully) accused me of "diversion". I would rather be in recovery without any issues, than go back to before I was being seen here. Again this is very disappointing, I feel as if I could have possibly been profiled in some way.
