REDGATE MEMORIAL RECOVERY CENTER I wanted to get well and to get help. All I got was drugs, kicked out on the street and a bill two years after the incident took place! ripoff Long Beach California
I voluntarily entered this for help with alcoholism. At the time, I was physically ill from head-cold/flu, all I could do was sleep. They put me in DETOX because I had a prescription for vicoden then gave me all kinds of knockout drugs from about mid-afternoon when I was enrolled through the night and even the next morning. I was so sick though, I didn't care. All I wanted to do was sleep anyhow.
On the second day, they put this lady in the room with me but she snored SOOO LOUD. I was so sick, needed sleep and asked to change rooms. Someone there in detox said she'd be willing to change with me. The Staff however said I wasn't ready for rehab. and I was told to get out. They literally threw me out in a hospital gown, I was so sick, I had no shoes, no money, but they threw me out on the street anyway. They actually locked me out so the only thing I could do was hitchhike back to Burbank where my Mom lived. I went to this rehab place for help with alcoholism. This was in 2002. I believe it was in 2005 they started billing me for this and continue to do so.
