Venice Medical & Mental Health

It's gotten better over time. New better staff.

New manager is MUCH BETTER. Old staff was terrible but with the new manager and new, competent and compassionate counselor's, the clinic is running much better. So grateful for the program, it saved my life! Happy I stuck it out through many horrible experiences and many not so good councilors because now I have a wonderful counselor Christiana. She really is special and REALLY CARES. She really wants to help her clients. I definitely recommend it now, wouldn't have before, but sadly with the unjust closing of Wilshire treatment center, this is the only methadone clinic on the westside so luckily it's gone through many positive changes. Oh the doctor is only there on Fridays, so intake is only done on Fridays, and I recommend calling Thursdays to set up an appointment. If you are even considering trying to get clean, DO IT! Nothing is more proven to work than medication assisted treatment. Programs are customized to the patient. This clinic is the perfect balance. Not tons of unnecessary requirements and hoops to jump through. They are there if you need them but also take into account you are just getting your life back on track and are busy with other things like work and appointments so don't require too much of you, but do require you work the program, but at the same time makes sure the program works for you! Even allows you to do your counciling over the phone which is amazing if you have work or other things come up! Again the new manager and Christiana are amazing! They have really transformed the entire clinic. It used to be lacking compassion and competents but that is just not the case anymore. Definitely recommend this place. God is in this building!

Methadone clinic is a good clinic most people have to wait until there turn sometimes it takes a long time to get done in a timely fashion but its a good place
