I went in a suicidal, hopeless, helpless shell of a man, praying for a ray of hope. I had absolutely no direction in life and needed nothing short of a miracle. The staff was SO friendly, caring, and genuinely encouraging. They show compassion with their actions and help the fainthearted find hope. It's amazing how much growth can happen in 28 days when awesome people instill loving humanity! I went in a wreck and left with hope, direction, and a full game plan which gives me confidence through attainable goals! I am now in long-term treatment with a smile on my face and gratitude in my heart! I want to thank Dr. J, George, Donna, Mickey,Cassie, Ashley, Rob, Derek, Steve, Anthony, Britt, Amanda, Mr. C, Leana, Latoya, Saudi, Beyonce, Samantha, Erica, Ariel, Flo, Keisha, and Latasha. This all star staff needs recognition and I pray God blesses their kind hearts a hundred times over. Please forgive me if I left out any staff members, because they are all saints. I strongly recommend Avenues to the addicted community! read less

I will be praying for this, I can tell from my recovery center research this is not your average detox center, it's in a league of it's own. One I would love to see. Here's to hoping my friend in Nola agrees. I need to get off the 90mg of methadone I'm on & I've been unsuccessful at my current outpatient clinic. They seem to encourage raising your dose more than assist in lowering it safely as I feel being on it since 2013 is a bit longer than I expected. read less

I wasn't sure what to expect upon intake, but I quickly realized the friendly and welcoming nature of each staff member. Kenny demonstrated empathy with kindness, while Mickey was the first to greet me and speak to me like a human being – not just a patient. Ms. Donna could not be a better Program Director showing utmost professionalism and fairness at every step. Dr. J is caring and truly listens to her patients' needs! I recommend this facility to anyone looking to embark on the best path their lives can take after addiction. I could not show more gratitude to each tech, nurse, counselor, or medical team member all whom made my stay comfortable and, so far, a complete success in my sobriety journey! Thank you! read less

They support a 12 step recovery program that actually works if you work it! The food is pretty good and you are guaranteed to gain weight while there.. I stayed for 30 days and am so grateful for the opportunity to have came to the facility and be taught the tools to live a healthy sober life.. They literally give you everything you need to succeed as long as you are willing to listen to the counselors advice/recommendations. They accept Medicaid and private insurance; so no money is no longer an excuse to not get your life together... The techs are so supportive and will literally go to the ends of the earth to make sure you are taken care of.. Most of the employees and counsellors are recovering addicts so they don't judge you or look down on you and know exactly what it feels like to be in your shoes. The rooms are cleaned every day as is the rest of the facility. The community is supportive and every one hopes for success in one another. Would definitely recommend family and friends to go if given the opportunity. read less

I went in very confused and very sick (still drunk). They kept a close eye on me, especially Miss Opal, to make sure I was going to be okay as I blew a .5 when I came in. Dr. J made sure I was medically safe and comfortable for my detox period and was very attentive to any negative side effects I had from medication.The staff is super friendly and helpful. They teach you how to communicate about your feelings and also how addiction works in the brain. They also do weekend outings to have some fun and blow off some steam. After completing the program I did have a relapse, but BECAUSE of this program and the tools they taught me I was able to dig my heels in the sand and start over. I now have almost 6 months sober, which I never thought was possible in my life! Thank you guys for literally saving my life read less

Highly recommend. My daughter was a client here. Staff is incredibly kind and very attentive to clients' particular needs, for example, dietary issues.. Was also very helpful and knowledgeable about what is and is not covered by insurance.
