I just talked to someone who asked me Qs about it so I hope this might help some more people. Best of luck to you all. Going thru the Sharp Rehab Pain Management program was a total game changer for me because I was highly opposed to getting completely off pain meds myself. At the time that I began working with a pain specialist there I was taking between 6-8 Norco a day for a chronic back problem that was only getting worse with treatments. I worked with a pain specialist who -very gradually-helped taper me down to a lower dosage of medicine. The rate at which my dosage was tapered down is some thing I was able to negotiate with the doctor and she was very receptive to my opposition of getting off of the painkillers completely. I want to say I went down half a pill a month, so it is not something they sprung on me overnight.. I can distinctly recall that this was process still not easy for me, so they were intermittent appointments where I would ask the doctor to go back up on a higher dosage of Norco, to which she (mostly) obliged. I really was not the best patient and I fought with my pain specialist throughout much of my taper off painkillers namely because I didn't see hope without them & I really had no faith that other things would work at all for me, let alone work better than what I was doing. I was not a huge fan that one other thing I was encouraged to try was switching over from Norco to taking SUBOXEN. When I looked into Suboxen I wasn't able to find any information on how it can be used to treat pain. This medication made me feel super dizzy and loopy so I didn't last very long on it. My 2 go-to's to manage pain pretty much boil down to ICE PACKS & HEAT PACKS. I had to become way more aware of what my body was saying to me because I had the bad habit of ignoring my physical symptom's until they were really bad. A huge part of the Sharp program is educational so I say through a required class that talked about ways to manage our stress. This was a real eye-opener for me because it felt very validating because it covered how living with chronic pain is a real thing that Does require our time and attention, if we do want our pain (& quality of life) to improve. I really appreciated that the doctors that work in this program never downplayed the fact that I was in pain even while they were tapering down my medicine. My feelings and physical problems were not ignored or belittled, as one might imagine. In fact, I think that everyone I met with, and worked with, was very kind and understanding. I would never have made it through the program had it been designed any other way than that way... For me, a huge part of dealing with my chronic condition, was an underlying feeling of hopelessness and helplessness that was making me feel marginalized from society, and alienated from most other people, because it was something that I couldn't talk about without some fear of judgement or scrutiny from them. I do wish there would've been more support groups involving other chronic pain patients but -for whatever reason- that wasn't the case.

I was so fortunate to find this place because I truly believe it saved my life…read more I was caught in the grips of the relentless cycle of addiction. I would have periods of time when I wanted to get clean but no matter what I tried I could not get out of this devastating cycle. Addicted to drugs for 15 years I was hopeless and running out of options. I was not only hurting myself but hurting my family. I stumbled across La Jolla Recovery online while desperately searching through countless treatment centers in search of one with a long-term option. I knew 30 days was simply not enough for a case like mine. I called the number and spoke to man, Daniel, whom I later found out was the owner. He walked me through the different phases of the program over the phone and gave me a rundown of what my day-to-day would look like at La Jolla Recovery. When I arrived to San Diego I was greeted by a women, Michelle, who worked at La Jolla Recovery and was also in Recovery from addiction herself. I remember feeling so relieved and hopeful that I too would be able to recover and take back control of my life. I was set up with a case manager, William, who was there to help me set and achieve goals during my stay. All of the counselors that lead groups are absolutely amazing, especially mine, Ashely. I was able to develop trust with them and work on myself during group therapy and in individual sessions which I attended weekly. The program is set up to get you into a safe environment where healing can start. As you phase up in the program you get more freedom. I was able to attend regular 12-step meetings where I built a fellowship of other recovering people. We also went on several outings and I learned that I didn't need drugs and alcohol to have a good time. There's so much more to life. We went to concerts, had barbecues and went to the beach. I enjoyed football and baseball games, surfing and snorkeling. They took us to the gym, to the movies, and to local events that we're going on in San Diego. I also did yoga, trauma therapy, art therapy, and music therapy. I cannot stress enough how amazing the staff is here! Almost everyone who works here is in recovery themselves and is truly here to help and inspire people including the owner who is hands on and makes himself available. As I phased up in the program I was able to gain a lot of things I had lost back such as my driver's license, a car, and a job. I also gained a better relationship with my family, a network people that want to help me succeed and an understanding of myself. I got back my sanity, self respect and my love for life. The support I recieved from my case manager, therapist and the BHT staff played a major role in my success. Today I have just over all year clean and I will be forever grateful to La Jolla Recovery. If you or a loved one is in need of treatment look no further! A highly, highly recommend you come to La Jolla and see for yourself. You won't be disappointed! If I can do it, anyone can!

I can't really speak on the quality of the IOP or PHP programs…read more My experience just... was not what I expected at all and I had since found better sober livings (which is saying a lot, because those were still inherently stressful but I at least stayed long-term. La Jolla Recovery set the bar very low). I've been in sober living for a year now, and I am now leaving. Never any relapses, graduated a program, did all the things. I'm at least in a better place from it. La Jolla Recovery was NOT that place for me. I began in April 2025. I stayed for a total of two nights before I had to leave to go to the emergency room, back to the inpatient. I was inpatient for about two weeks before I came to La Jolla Recovery. I had recently quit cannabis and was seeking mental health treatment. At first glance, it seemed chill. I had friends who had gone here and apparently had a positive experience. The groups were decent, staff were friendly, there was available snacks, etc. They had outings at the cove, etc. However, the sober living was......... awful! I stayed at a sober living house where I was immediately prescribed medication I had not taken while inpatient, but was forced to take it. One of these medications were entirely new to me, Trazodone. There was a delay in getting my mood stabilizers, anti-psychotic, and anti-anxiety medicine. I had never taken Trazodone before, but having nothing else available to me, I took it as prescribed/was pressured into taking it by the sober living manager who organized medications. The first night, I had stayed up ALL night. I was hyper vigilant, no need for sleep, and a little paranoid. During the day, it was... okay. I didn't really know what was impacting me considering how vulnerable my mental health was and the chaotic nature of being in sober living for the first time. The second night, I took the medication again. Again, I was feeling overstimulated, overwhelmed and restless/anxious. The sober living manager gave me a 2nd one, and I felt pressured to take it/was told "it would help me calm down and sleep"; that's when the shit show began. Immediately, I started hallucinating visual shapes and became scared. The best way I could describe it was "my brain was on fire." I have a history of epilepsy in childhood, and my first thought was "Oh my god, am I going to have a seizure?" My mind began severely racing and I asked her if I could call my parents and I thought I needed to go to the hospital. Coincidentally, my aunt called during this time. She, and another house manager, told her I had gone to sleep and didn't let her talk to me. This was a lie. I sat on the sofa, feeling severely anxious and panicked. I was not aggressive, overly disruptive, anything of the sort. Everyone was in their rooms at that point, as it was time for bed. I did, however, kept asking for them to call my parents because I was afraid I was having a medical emergency (I definitely was) and asked to go to the hospital. I had never hallucinated like that EVER, I had no previous history of psychosis. Initially, she told me "I am NOT going to let you ruin this house for the other girls," meanwhile, I had gotten along with the roommates and even knew some of them from having been in recovery before. I was clean, kind, and tried my best to be considerate. I introduced myself to people, wrote a note explaining my situation, and tried to be as mindful as I could be considering I was already in a vulnerable state, having experienced a death in my family, a sexual assault, and other traumatic occurrences within the few months prior to me seeking support and help. Then, she and the other woman (a fellow house manager?) threatened to call the police and have me taken away in handcuffs. I had done NOTHING illegal; I had no substances on my person, I respected everyone's space and items, I broke no laws. Holy hell, I was there for 2 days and was trying to get acclimated to a new environment. What was the crime, having a mental health episode as a result of a new medication mishap? Eventually, I was able to get my parents on the phone. They spoke to her directly and said that if I could leave the sober living in an ambulance, they would meet me at the hospital. I waited patiently for the ambulance and went to the emergency room, where I waited all night and was placed back in inpatient in the ICU at Sharp Mesa Vista. There, I was restabilized and put in a different sober living. The aggression from the house manager, the lack of empathy, the lying, and the arbitrary difficulty to even get into communication with my support system was actually insane. She felt like a wolf in sheep's clothing; fronted as a kind and caring person, but then would switch and be quite scary once I was in crisis. I was told by one of my friends who works in recovery that she has since left/been replaced, but oh my god, I pray that they thoroughly vet their housing managers at this point if they want retention. 0/5 stars. Avoid.

She never made us feel rushed and consistently went above and beyond to advocate for what was best for my mother. Her communication was excellent, and it was obvious that she genuinely cared about the well-being of the patients and their families.

In September 2025, my psychiatrist, NP Shadette Soriano, recognized that something still wasn't right and recommended HealthyU's PHP and IOP programs. I am incredibly grateful that I took her advice. From beginning to end, my experience with HealthyU has been nothing short of life-changing. It's true that "it gets worse before it gets better," and I feel so fortunate to have had such compassionate clinicians and supportive peers beside me during the hardest parts of treatment. After nearly six months in the program, I came out stronger, more prepared to manage my illnesses, and learning to love myself a little more along the way. There is no way I could have done this without HealthyU. IOPs are called intensive for a reason. There is a full curriculum, deep emotional work, and days when you want to quit--my advice: don't. You don't have to show up at 100% every day -- the facilitators will meet you wherever you are and help carry the percentage you don't have. They genuinely care about every person who walks through those doors and truly want you to succeed. The group setting reminds you that you are not alone. The peer support is something you never forget. I have made lifelong friends who understand me without judgment, and I offer them that same understanding in return. In my heart, I know I would not be where I am today if I hadn't admitted myself to HealthyU. I don't know if I would even still be here. If you are feeling lost, lonely, or afraid that life will always feel this way, please consider HealthyU. There are people there who care deeply about you and will help you find your way forward.

My dad has been a resident here for quite a while, and I want to say this clearly: the nursing and…read moredirect care staff are excellent. He is genuinely well cared for. Susie, Olga, and Natalia have gone above and beyond for him, and we're incredibly grateful. None of what follows is a reflection on them. What I can't get past is how quickly things changed after his Medicare coverage ended and we switched to private pay. Almost overnight, the business office stopped responding. We're still waiting for a callback about arranging additional therapy. A test his doctor ordered more than a month ago was never scheduled. And my mom has had multiple interactions with someone named Nina in the business office who has been rude and dismissive. During one phone call, Nina hung up on my mom while she was simply trying to get basic information. That is unacceptable. Then my dad ended up back in the hospital, and we discovered his bed had not been held for him. No one ever discussed or obtained our agreement for that. We have documentation showing we understood there would be bed hold fees and were fully prepared to pay them out of pocket. Despite that, we were told his bed was no longer being held. It is heartbreaking to think a medically fragile person could lose his place despite our willingness to pay the required fees. To be fair, after we escalated our concerns, another staff member began working with my mom and has taken the situation seriously. They have been following up on the Medicare coverage gap, our pending Medi-Cal application, and our concerns about how my mom was treated. I appreciate their efforts. It shouldn't have taken things reaching this point to get help, but I'm grateful someone is finally addressing these issues. I used to recommend Jacob without hesitation, and I still would when it comes to the quality of care provided by the nurses and caregivers. They have been wonderful. But there is a significant disconnect between the people caring for residents and the business office. If your loved one is transitioning off Medicare, be prepared to advocate for them, because our experience changed dramatically once that coverage ended. I sincerely hope these issues are resolved in a way that works for everyone. If they are, I'll gladly come back and update this review.

I found this Treatment Center online and was very scared to call; mostly because I wanted to help save my son from Opioid addiction so much that I was ready to believe anything I was told. From the get-go when Josh answered the call he made me feel comfortable and answered ALL my questions. He understood this was going to be a process and made himself available for any ongoing questions I would have or my son would have. He responded to all of my texts and calls without hesitation. The intake process was very discreet. Normally they pick up patients at the airport and drive them into Tijuana/ Rosarito; but we decided to drive my son all the way there to see the clinic with our own eyes. Aeden and the staff were extremely welcoming and had no problems inviting us in. I don't think it's very common to have families take their patient all the way there; but they never made us feel uncomfortable. Once there Aeden explained the reason the intake process is so discreet; it makes sense. They were very respectful of my son's addiction and never made him feel judged. Aeden took the time to answer our questions and address our concerns while at the same time making my son feel welcomed and (more importantly) understood. We later met Dr Casillas who (again) explained the process. The doc gave our son a full medical review to make sure the treatment was safe for him. The clinic administrator (Valeria) is super nice and was very respectful when it came to handling the payment for the treatment. We even met their doggo- Pancho! The treatment center/ house is very clean and comfortable. They have a full time chef that makes the patients anything they want! They have a large TV with Netflix and even an Xbox. They gave us the WiFi password within the first few minutes. They'll feel right at home while they're there. The view of the ocean is amazing. The beach isn't really accessible but they are a few hundred yards away- so the beach breeze and smell is always enjoyed. They have a heated spa and a sauna room available. We nervously left our son in their hands; but we felt a lot more confident about the center, staff and treatment. Our son stayed for one week (7 days). They housed him, fed him, treated him and cured his addiction pains & withdrawals! My son was allowed a phone so he was always a phone call, text or FaceTime away. They kept us in the loop at all times too. Aeden texted me before, during and after his treatment. By the end of the week my son only spoke praises of Aeden and the entire nursing staff. You could immediately notice that he was transformed by this experience. My son even told me with a huge smile, "It worked!!" He now has a REAL chance at getting his life back and beating his addiction permanently with ongoing behavioral therapy. Experience Ibogaine is the real deal! They genuinely care about their patients. Compared to other places I researched- they are the most affordable. Josh, Aeden, Valeria and the entire staff are great people. If you have a family member that struggles with addiction or you are struggling with addiction- I pray you are able to go to "Experience Ibogaine"!!
