Golden Gate Recovery

I am truly super impressed with the way they care for their patients and how far they are willing to go to help them. Their dedication goes above and beyond expectations. It has been amazing to witness the transformation in the lives they work with, and I’m deeply grateful for the impact they make every day.

The young buck owners "A"and "Q" talk a good line. It's a money grab. "A" has an AA degree in psychology and a certification in LGBTQ studies! Although the GG website stated they took our Blue Shield Insurance, GG refused. The Blue Shield rep stated GG was an in-network provider. Apparently GG would not be reimbursed as much money using the insurance. We had to pay cash for an outpatient program and SLE housing directly to what appeared to be a personal banking account via Zelle, not a business acct. Very odd. Our loved one had a vicious Kratom addiction, we were assured that the RANDOM cheaper urine testing would detect Kratom use, it DID NOT. We were informed by our loved one later that the testing was done at predictable times, and was NOT random. A way to beat the testing. More sophisticated expensive Kratom testing is required for detection. Ironically he ended up having to go to a costly detox facility for ALCOHOL use while at GG, then was "allowed" back into GG. Still using Kratom the WHOLE TIME during his entire GG stay. Isn't that rich? Ultimately it's a convenient costly revolving door situation extending time/money in the the GG program. AFTER GG our loved one excelled in a highly regarded closely monitored rehab program that uses the PROPER Kratom drug testing. Our recommendation: seek a program elsewhere with integrity, talk w other families, ask alot of questions and don't drain your hard earned financial resources. Or waste your precious beloved one's time.

Of all the facilities I’m aware of, Golden Gate has been the most effective in helping guys to really stay sober and make real changes. They’re uniquely structured for guys who really need accountability, structure and community. Highly recommend.

GGR led a foundation for my new path in life. The staff is incredible and caring. I never thought I’d be able to reach 7 months and counting of continuous sobriety and I owe it to GGR for the success I’ve had. Not only is their residential program phenomenal, they set me up with after care which has been a blessing. Anyone looking to finally overcome the challenges of starting their new life, I’d recommend GGR to them.

Great place to get sober and learn to live a sober lifestyle. Still am friends with people I’ve met in this program and the staff is great. Staff and counselors were incredibly helpful during my time there, can’t recommend golden gate enough.

I came to Golden Gate Recovery after 37 days of residential treatment. The care here was excellent and I learned a great deal about life in recovery. The tools I learned are invaluable to my continued journey.

My son had alcohol and weed addiction problem in college . At beginning he was very unwilling to go to rehab places. Quinn’s talked to my son and changed his mind. After two months of program like IPP, PIP, my son was totally changed and willingly quitted alcohol and weed, and will continue to go through IOP and sober living. Quinn’s program is designed for young adults and it works very well for my son. Thank you so much GoldenGate recovery.

It’s hard to hear that your son has a substance use disorder (SUD). As a parent, you scour all resources for how to best support your child in his recovery journey. What you find is oftentimes terrifying. That, however, was not the case with Golden Gate Recovery (GGR). It came highly recommended from my son’s counselor at rehab as his next step. Even with the recommendation, I was on high alert, particularly with sending him more than 2,000 miles away from home. GGR proved to be an excellent choice. GGR kept me thoroughly updated on my son’s progress (and setbacks) and calmed my nerves time and time again. GGR continues to be readily available to both my son and to me even though he has completed the program. My son has shared with me many stories that built my confidence in GGR. It is clear to me that GGR cares about the long-term success of its clients. The people working with the clients are strict yet compassionate. They understand the importance of someone with SUD making independent decisions, including the decision to stay sober. They help clients come to make good choices and continue to support them when they make choices that don’t work out as intended. I’m confident GGR helped my son understand his SUD and how to best manage it. I’m happy to report that GGR’s stair-step program provided my son with the tools and the confidence to understand what he has to do to stay sober independently. Thanks to his hard work and GGR’s support, he just received his one-year chip last month. We both know to take it one day at a time.
