 A Naturopathic Approach to Treatment
With so much competition nearby, differentiating oneself from the crowd can sometimes be a problem for centers, but it never has been for The River Source, according to CEO Phill Westbrooks. “Our naturopathic approach to detox and treatment has been a key driver of our success," he says. "Relatively few centers take a natural approch to treatment, and we do it very effectively." Strong out comes, and word of those strong outcomes from alumni, have kept beds full at The River Source since its founding about five years ago, with 60 percent of the center's business coming from local clientele. And with demand continuing strong, The River Source earlier this year embarked on a major expansion, lifting the number of its beds to 40, up from just 8 beds at founding. Realizing that alumni word of mouth might be insufficient for such a large number of new beds, Westbrooks has brought national marketing to bear, with the aim of lifting the center's out-of-state client flow. Behind the center’s success is the work of Dr. Chad Goetz, who directs River Source’s naturopathic approach to detoxification, which the center says is particularly effective in treating opiate addiction, especailly hard-to treat cases of methadone dependence. Says COO Jeff Howard: “The step-down detox process at most methadone And River Source Adds . . .

The hype is not exactly what you will run into. At the Casa Grande facility, the staff are young addicts with little training and in short supply. The facilities are lacking in accomodations for meeting rooms, acitivities and social space. Many of the patients are court ordered and they simply do not want to be there. This along with the very young age of the majority of the patients led to an unpredictable environment that was often out of control.
The billing procedure can only be charactorized as greedy and deceptive. The billing arrangement with Avee Labs has to be questioned. The Casa Grande facility is for patients with insurance. It could be concluded that The River Source has figured out a plan to bilk the insurance companies. report abuse
