A once in a lifetime experience - the tools and skills I gained at Heritage Clinic is one of the greatest gifts I so far received. During my stay I discovered and learned more about myself in a matter of months, something which, with other professional help previously, I wasn’t able to achieve for decades. Staff is extremely knowledgeable and professional. And the program works if you want it to work. I therefore cannot recommend the Heritage Clinic more highly.

I was fortunate enough to have been part of recovery programs before coming here. I was able to get out of the group of people who I was with a lot. The experience with the therapeutic team was mixed, some were very kind, others would continuously raise their voices, act grandiose. I would love to be able to recommend parts of this place however, I truly can not in good conscience say that I would send a family member here. The website includes a lot of false advertising. The Gym equipment is very old, we had to use bottles filled with sand. The food at times was inedible. (they advertise gourmet). There were holed or stains in the sheets and mattresses. A broken shower head. Etc.
