I'm reviewing this as someone who came here for some outpatient radiology testing…read more Big thank you to Chris in Admin for being patient as he sorted through some of the paperwork I brought in. He never lost his cool even though it required multiple calls to my doctor's office. He was helpful, efficient, and thorough. And everyone who works here that I've encountered has been friendly. One of the ladies at the front desk of radiology was wonderfully proactive in checking when a technician could come and see me. Much appreciated. Biggest down side is if you park in the lot to the right of the hospital (near Renaissance Imaging), you have to walk a ways to get to the hospital entrance. And if you want validation, you may get a bit of a run around. To get my ticket validated, security referred me to Admin's front desk. Admin's front desk referred me to security and radiology to get it. When I went to radiology, they had to run to the front where security was because they ran out of validation stickers.

My experience at Northridge Hospital Medical Center was extremely disappointing. I came to the…read moreemergency department in need of medical care and ultimately required two bags of IV fluids. While I'm grateful for the medical treatment itself, the way I was treated by portions of the nursing staff was unacceptable. Throughout my stay, I felt ignored, talked down to, and treated with a complete lack of compassion and respect. Instead of feeling cared for during a vulnerable moment, I felt like I was an inconvenience. I also personally observed a member of the nursing staff asleep at the nurses' station while I was still a patient, which raised concerns about attentiveness and patient care. Every patient deserves to be treated with dignity, professionalism, and empathy. Unfortunately, that was not my experience. I have filed or am filing formal complaints with the appropriate hospital departments and regulatory agencies so these concerns can be investigated. I sincerely hope the hospital takes these concerns seriously and works to improve how patients are treated.

They have an ant problem in the rooms and rodent issues (not sure if this is just a LA thing cause I've seen this issue at other facilities). I only liked the groups and the food. The techs are kinda helpful or I'll say Johnny and Egla are helpful. Bobby is the worst! So pretentious and sarcastic and doesn't do anything! Javi is.. Javi. Oh, Alex is good too. Late night staff is lazy. The nurse is helpful and actually listened to my needs and what I needed. The "case manager" or should I call her Christian Crystal.. she is so useless. All she does is force her religious beliefs on you. She is always stressed and acts like you asking her a question or needing help is an issue. Getting help from her or Katrina is like waiting in line at the DMV AKA YOU ARE ALWAYS WAITING. Katrina is their so called therapist who I wonder is even licensed. Her advice is underwhelming. I got more from my peers and facilitators than her. Also the care from Katrina and Crystal just feels very manipulative. They get mad at you when you don't do what they want and give you the silent treatment. They love to throw words around like "I care about you" "I love you" "this is a special place". Every time you ask something you get told "Sam said no" or "Let me talk to Sam first". Is Sam freaking god?! Oh and don't let you feel sick and ask to miss group! If you don't feel good they threaten you with going to the ER. You have headache? Go to the ER. A lot of things don't make sense here. There is a lot of special treatment to favorite house members. Also we caught staff members talking about us multiple times. All these people do is gossip around the house. I thank the staff and facilitators that helped me only.

I'm 25 and finding Miracles in Action was a turning point for me. If you're looking for an…read moreaddiction and mental health treatment center in Northridge, CA, this place genuinely delivers. From the first call, the team was supportive, professional, and easy to talk to, which made starting treatment way less intimidating. Their Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) and Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) are structured but realistic for real life. They focus on substance abuse treatment and mental health care together, including anxiety, depression, and dual diagnosis, which made a huge difference for me. Group therapy felt relatable and practical, and the clinicians actually explain things in a way that sticks. The environment is welcoming and respectful, not judgmental or overly clinical. They offer flexible scheduling and telehealth options, which helped me balance work while staying consistent with treatment. Insurance was accepted and clearly explained, which took a lot of stress off my plate. If you're in your 20s and searching for outpatient addiction treatment, IOP, or PHP in the Northridge or Los Angeles area, I highly recommend Miracles in Action. They focus on real recovery, mental health stability, and building tools that last beyond the program. Top it all off they do breath work and sound bath every week with a proper instructor!!

As I'm getting ready to discharge, I wanted to share my experience at Miracles in Action…read more From the beginning, the environment felt supportive, professional, and well organized. The facility is clean, calm, and welcoming, which made it easier to stay focused and present during treatment. Communication was clear and consistent, and I always felt informed about my schedule, care plan, and next steps. The therapists, doctor, and counselors are highly qualified, certified, and deeply experienced in recovery. What stood out most was how individualized the care felt. The staff genuinely takes time to understand each person's situation and adjusts treatment accordingly rather than using a one size fits all approach. Beyond traditional therapy, the program offers additional support that made a real difference for me. Weekly sound baths and guided meditation helped me slow down, reset, and gain mental clarity. Those sessions became an important part of my routine and overall progress. They are also in network with insurance, and the team was transparent and helpful with coverage, which removed a lot of stress during an already important time. Connecting with other patients, it was clear how impactful this program has been in their day to day lives as well. As I prepare to discharge, I feel grounded, supported, and more confident moving forward. I would strongly recommend this program to anyone looking for high quality IOP or PHP care in the San Fernando Valley. Thank you for being there when I needed guidance and support the most.

I felt like I was in good hands from the moment I arrived and The Dr came into see me at 7am personally .I can't say enough praises about the Dr there.. So many Drs tell you what they are going to do and how they are going to treat you .but Dr Meza was different he listen to my input and worked with me to get sober. Just wanted to thank the staff they are more of a extended family then staff just beautiful caring people.. Thank you for your patience and kindness...Thank you for caring for me .. I would recommend Northstar to anyone that is considering getting sober where other places did not work Northstar did for me.. I hope you find what I found at Northstar ..What a special place...

Do not come here if you are looking for a therapist or psychiatrist. They mostly rely on nurse…read morepractitioners who are clearly not adequately trained. I booked an appointment expecting to see an actual psychiatrist at 8:00 AM. I rushed to get there on time, and since I don't have a car, getting to this appointment was difficult. Despite all of that effort, Lalita Davidoff never showed up. I waited in the office until 8:45 AM with no communication. She eventually called me, and based on the call, I highly doubt she was even in the office -- it sounded like she was at home. This was supposed to be my first appointment with her and she created an awful first impression. I gave her the benefit of the doubt and assumed maybe she had an emergency, so I agreed to take the call. Instead, she acted as if nothing was wrong and showed no acknowledgment of how unprofessional the situation was. The only reason I agreed to continue with a phone appointment was because it took weeks just to get this appointment, and I urgently needed care. Honestly, not being seen at all would have been better. I wasted hours of my time. She was extremely cold, dismissive, and immediately started talking about putting me on medication without doing a full evaluation. After researching the medication she prescribed, I realized how inappropriate it was to recommend something that strong without ever meeting me or conducting a proper assessment. It genuinely felt unsafe. I also truly believe that after I mentioned her tardiness, she became defensive and blamed me -- even going as far as to gaslight my mental health concerns. The entire interaction was unprofessional, careless, and unacceptable. I will be reporting this provider to the medical board. No one seeking mental health care should be treated this way.

Anxiety, sleep issues, and fear of sea sickness since I am going on a cruise. Some years back, she helped me with the sea sickness, and it completely got rid of it. It was unbelievable! She starts off with an extensive questionnaire for you to fill out to get a good gauge on the issues you are wanting to work on. And then during your scheduled appointment, she spends a lengthy amount of time discussing your issues, your goals, and all kinds of other interesting and helpful things. When she records your session it is sent to you via text so you can listen to it at your leisure. I've only had the session recording for two nights and I listened to the session both nights as I was getting ready for bed. I fell asleep so peacefully and both nights slept incredibly well which is very rare for me these days! I would recommend Alisha for any issues you're struggling with! She absolutely amazing!
