The staff at Golden Rule is very unpleasant. They do not care about their clients. They are only unit for the money.

Review from Rehabs.com

If you are truly ready to get better this is the place to do it! All staff and directors are former addicts or have family members that were addicts! This is a long term facility (9months) and I believe it takes that long to get better.
