Sovereign Health San Clemente

Here’s public record for the owner. I have a horrific story but this is enough to make a decision for you or your loved ones.
My personal experience with this place, I sent my child for depression issues that caused her to act out. I sent her to the one in El Cajon. They told me and advertised it’s gender segregated. That’s a lie, they have a small grassy area between the boy side and girls side and on weekends with zero medical staff is around they leave them with the interns with no formal training in this field basically young babysitters a couple really old ones that these kids walk all over. To watch over them. They do co-​Ed activities together during this period. My first red flag was the reports of boy/​girl interactions from the caseworker during the 7 day blackout period. (We cannot talk to our children during this period for some strange reason they kept my child on blackout the whole 11 days) it was reported she was caught hugging a boy. I know my child and she wouldn’t just run up and hug some random boy she had to have opportunities to get to know him. They of course didn’t admit it. The place looks run down and dingy but I thought maybe my child would appreciate what she has at home more. The food was terrible and raw according to my daughter. Kids got food poisoning and they had bed bugs. They lie about not charging your card on file. Told me only to use if my child was hurt and needed to seek outside medical attention it would be used to pay her 25.00 co-​pay. The day after I dropped her off I was charged 250.00. Another lie. Told these were licensed clinical psychologist but they wanted me to sign an agreement that she be seen by in intern piggy backing off of another dr. I refused said my insurance is paying from what they Sovereign told me 70,000 for 60 days for a licensed clinical psychologist. After 11 days I found out they never called my insurance for a preauth or filed any claims. They didn’t want a paper trail on her. The also tell those without insurance they get a grant or scholarship but really buy a separate policy with major insurance companies using the patient as a dependent of one of the owners and send the bills to a San Clemente address major Insurance fraud. Told my child I didn’t want to talk to her and told me she refused to talk to me. The one time i demanded to talk to her, she got on the phone praising this place spit out a whole bunch of words not in her vocabulary it was totally scripted. She was also about to tell me about the food but Nora made the motion of grabbing the phone and hanging up. So she just stopped and said it was great. There’s a ton more but a limit on how much I can type. Email me if you have further questions. This place drugs these kids up getting scrips from over seas (had my child talk to a doctor on skype in the uk) when the parent catches on they these kids disappear saying they went awol. End up in God knows where doing god knows what. I got there just in time we were suppose to have a meeting on Monday to discuss other treatments this is when I believe she was going to be shipped off and I was going to be told she went awol. Look up the story of the two kids that ran away for 45 days. Not at all what was reported but because if the drug s and mental health stigma these children aren’t believed. My child was hurt, confused, and more traumatize then when I dropped her off. The police have been involved, we’re prosecuting them for child endangerment and neglect resulting in harm. Don’t send your loved ones here. This is a scam, money making illegal place that messed with the wrong momma! the link above is about the owner and what he did in the U.K. He still portrays he’s a doctor and a professor. I have a whole list of links where he’s at speaking engagements representing himself as an expert. I’ve called every single licensing, authorities and any one who will listen and shared my research of all this illegal scam. Deport this man and close his centers!

My daughter is not an addict, she just has a brain
Problem. I’m a single Mom with cancer (I’m in remission) but, I don’t have a lot of funds. Luckily my
X husband pays for insurance and we got into this bottom of the barrel place. Don’t let looks deceive
You, this place is beautiful on the outside, but ugly
On the inside. My daughter has been there 4 times,
Every time they send her to other locations (without her expensive computer and cloths) and the people at Soverighn in Culver city robbed her blind. (they take advantage of mentally ill people. They tell u a doctor in there a couple times a week & a psychologist. Well over the weekend everyone disappears & my daughter is not safe there on the
Weekends. She was sent from the Palm Springs location to Charter hospital Last Week, because they were not equipped to stabilize her, Well, I talked
To them b4 the weekend and San Climente had no
Paper work from Charter Hospital! who put her on the right meds! She had was suicidal when she went
To Charter hospital. Well, it’s Wed, and San Climente hasn’t given her ANY meds! They keep lying to her that she’s going to see the doctor. (Not taking the meds cold turkey can cause seizure’s). My therapist, & my
Brother works for a rehab & I go to Nami & everyone
Has said this is a horrible place for mentally ill people. I just found out the Canyon (my sister was mentally year for 10 years & the Canyon saved her) Malibu takes
Insurance and my brother’s ex girlfriend is the chef
There, so I’m going to try and rescue her from this
Fraud of a place for the mentally ill. At this rate, she
Has to go back to the physc ward to get her medicine. I’ve given this place four to five chances &
I’m desperate to get my daughter the right help.
I heard if they just have an addiction problem, it’s better. They have no business being in the mental
Heath business. Also, when she got there at night, she gave permission to the lady working to give me
Some information, she said since it wasn’t in writing,
I had to wait till the am!!! If u have money don’t send
Your mentally ill adult child here! Ps. All the people you talk to are telemarketer’s, & if u get through to
A real person, they don’t know anything, and are rude, and the people who work on the weekends are just people newly in recovery. My daughter didn’t ask to be mentally ill, she never did drugs and alcohol, tell she went to this place and the people there told her all about drugs, and luckily my daughter’s 30,
If u had a teenager that «only has mental illness»
they can b very impressionable!

I can’t even give them one star. Please do your research. This place is terrifying! I have to agree with many of these reviews. It is unorganized, too big, in personal to say the least. Everything they advertise and tell you over the phone is a lie. My son went here seeking help and all he found was more drugs. There was a client in the house my son was housed that sold drugs at a high price. Clients were using drugs in the house freely. The house manager was no where to be found at times and if he was there he was in the garage. My son ended up OD in the house and in a coma for 14 days. The worst thing that has ever happened to us. This low quality business did not have the courtesy to call or give me any explanations. I was always told that Dr. «ghost» would call me. I never heard from them. They were kind enough to call 911 and send my son to an ER. That was the end of their involvement. Being that we live in another state we couldn’t find our son since he was fighting for his life and he was transported to a trauma center after he was stabilized in the 1^st hospital. I can continue with our nightmare but all I have to say is that this place needs to be shut down. Oh and good luck finding them in the better business bureau, they are registered under a different name.

I would give negative stars if I could, and I have set a lawsuit in action. This place is a discrace, I went to this program from mid January and came home mid march. The first day I arrived I realised I was lied to, no houses on the beach, no gym, no nutrionist, no track to run on, can’t even run around the block, but still paying a bunch of money. They assigned me a therapist who forgot my name every session and she would constantly yawn the entire hour. She did not care to help me and had way to many clients to manage. 3^rd night my roommate was unhappy and decided to discharge but sovereign refused to give him his meds that HE brought from home, so he broke into the office and smashed everything then busted the med locker and fled. The cops came and it was a huge mess we had to sit outside for hours. 2^nd week the night manager was caught stealing my meds, seriously I have the worst luck. She stole my meds and no one told me they said meds were stolen but I had to find out from another manager I was cool with that they were my ativan. They constantly lie and manipulate thier clients. I had bed bugs in my bed and had to sleep on the couch they didn’t even bring in a new matress and refused to spray the room. One of the house managers at my house was constantly stealing food and even got fired for it. This place is a mess there is no organized system and it’s always stressful when you wake up. The worst part was the 3^rd week, I was in cordoba 2 it’s a house across from the maintance house. One of the workers accidently chopped his hand off no joke clean off, blood every where. We had to stay inside and they called the hazmat team to clean it up. The same week there was a scabies outbreak and we had to stay in the house for 4 days straight couldn’t go anywhere. We missed so many groups and had to wait for hours before they brought us food. It’s not like the groups even help though, on many occasions (10 or more) the group director failed to show so we had to sit around in a circle and do nothing for hours on end. Even when there is a group there is like 30 people all trying to talk to a director who cant take control. Every clinet was pretty close though we all bonded over the fact that soverign was so evil. During the months i went it was a common conversation to talk about how we are being ripped off. Every one was fed up and on many occasions we banded together and demanded a change sometimes it worked sometimes we were ignored and look at as crazies. They dont care about the clinets at all i always see the house managers flirting and getting close because most were recovered addicts or stoners. Its obviously an issurance scam and its clear the minute you get there. Before I went I read all the reviews and most of them were bad, but I thought they were just angry people turns out they were totally right. It’s a horrible program that cost me a lot of money. They promised to pay a portion so I stupidly allowed them only to find out I was sent to collections from my insurance company. Now my credit is destroyed, my mental health is far worse and it’s created so much stress I started smoking cigarettes. I never smoked in my entire life. I also smoked meth for the first time there and i dont even do drugs i was there for bipolar. Drugs are every where in there its very easy to get anything and it’s hard to say no when your bored to death and it’s right in your face. Never go here you will deeply regret it and be far worse than when you went in.

So I’m rewriting my review and I can only speak to my experience with Sovereign health. I don’t know how they treat their patients as I have not been a actual patient there my wife was sent there for personal reasons that I don’t want to get into. But I can tell you this if you look at other reviews believe everything that everybody is saying since my wife is gone in there I have had zero contact with her I do not know if she is safe this is very unlike her she’s had these kind of problems before and she’s always called us and she’s never not spoken to her children at home or called the children we have a code word that she can say which means that I am not supposed to talk to her if she calls and I’m just supposed to give the phone to the kids she is never in all the years of going to rehab or facilities for help never not called the kids I completely 100% that believe that this place is trying to create a rift between me and my wife I believe 100% were people say that they tell the patients that the people at home don’t want to talk to them and they tell the people at home that the patients don’t want to talk to them. I cannot at this point see if it’s true but as a a husband that has been married to his wife for 20 years I can say this is completely 100% out of character and never happened before and I’m very worried about her. I can also tell you that when I was about to do a wellness check on her and drive down there they flew her out of state into Arizona to Sovereign woman house in Arizona. It’s been a week there and she still has not spoken to her children or me the children now say that they hate their mothers guts I’m doing everything I can to try and rectify the situation and not do permanent damage to my children I have told the facility how my children are acting and what they said and they have done nothing to try and help the family they do not care about the family at home in any way shape or form. The only times I’ve ever talk to anybody was over money they’ve called and asked for money they made a deal with my insurance that it would be 100% covered and then they actually sent me a contract trying to get me to take responsibility I couldn’t believe it. I’ve recorded every phone call that I’ve had with these people and I’ve documented every single day everything that’s happened and when my wife gets out if it turns out that all this was happening I’m planning on suing this company. I can tell you if your having the same problems as me call the California licensing board and file an Ethics complaint because that’s what I’m doing. Their phone number is 916−338−9460. When I call The Sovereign and Arizona and told the woman that I was concerned about my wife and I was filing a complaint she started yelling and screaming at me and she hung up the phone on me. That would be like me going to BestBuy and complaining about a dishwasher that I bought and then the manager yelling and screaming at me and then kicking me out of the store because I said I was going to the Better Business Bureau. So I cannot believe that this woman is the director of their facility when I told her that my children are very worried about their mother and that I am extremely extremely worried about my wife she did nothing to rectify the situation but yell and scream at me. I have this on recording so anyways if I were anybody thinking of putting a loved one in this facility there is no way in Hell or Heaven or anything that I would put my family member in this facility it would be the craziest thing for you people to do. And let it also be known that I did not put my wife in this facility She was transferred there from a hospital after being on a 72-​hour watch so at this point it’s been a horrible horrible situation in the worst time in my entire life. If you’re having these types of problems with this facility I’m sorry and if you need help you can email me and I can give you any phone numbers of places that I found and if your loved one is not talking to you there get in touch with the police and do a wellness check. Good luck to anybody that’s going with this place because you’re in for a nightmare. Just a little update to my review so they flew my wife out to Arizona without getting a pre-​authorization and I just got a phone call that my insurance won’t cover it so now my wife in Arizona so now because they never called me and found out the truth they completely wasted a month and never found out the truth because when an addict is talking a addict is lying so my wife never got any real help and it was a complete waste of time and a complete waste of money. And so now we start the cycle all over again. Thank Sovereign health for nothing!

Don’t put anyone here. It’s disorganized at best. Shady. All they care about is money. They will lie until they get you, then you’re stuck. They control your phone usage, keep your ID, money, medical cards… You are at their mercy. They took 18k a month from my husbands Union for my care, then refused me a psychiatrist as that was not covered in their monthly fee and I had Kaiser medical insurance so it was «difficult» and «a hardship» to get me to regular appointments. This was something they were well informed of when they took me in to their «care». Our main house manager was totally moody, slamming doors and yelling at us, then apologizing because she was «overworked» and had «cramps» and no health insurance. The food was whatever you can microwave from Costco and granola bars. If there was food, the American Express cars was frequently denied at Costco because supposedly the person using it wasn’t authorized. Um, maybe they should pay their bills. These are not ocean view homes, just FYI. Most of the time we just sat around the house, or we went to AA meetings that are free and half of us weren’t alcoholics or addicts. But we had to all go where everyone went. I got dropped off at the hospital (I was there for a suicide attempt) totally unsupervised and they tried coercing me many times not to go but they didn’t have my meds, wouldn’t get my meds, and I was in a literal cyclone of panic. Suddenly depriving someone of established psych meds is extremely dangerous and can cause death. But they don’t have the medical training or concern to know that at Sovereign. I was dropped off at the door of the hospital and they made me take and pay for a cab to get back. This place is DANGEROUS! I could go on and on about the horrible way I was treated but feel even more sad for the few people I met and cared for who later died of their addictions after Sovereign «helped» them.
They lie to your family after all you’re the «crazy» one they just want to help you. Don’t put anyone here. They aren’t even a licensed residential care facility, they are run by a «doctor» with no license to treat people. Tonmoy Sharma, google him.
He’s the brother of the owner of Sovereign. He’s been charged for treating people without a license in England and the care he gave mental patients there was considered «dangerous» and «experimental»
Do you want to put your loved one in Unlicensed, Dangerous, Experimental, Manipulative care? I did learn how to tongue meds and how the other girls got drugs from our Walmart outings. I left there knowing how to shoot heroine and tongue meds to trade. I came there for depression. I got help from Kaiser when I got back to Portland. This place is a sham.
Don’t believe anything they say and no, you’re not responsible for payment of you leave against their advice. They’re not even real doctors.

Let’s just start by saying that this was the worst place to place your loved one to get help. I couldn’t even say this deserves 1 star rating. I don’t know how this place is still running. I got my fiancé in there hoping it would a good place but they did absolutely nothing and sold us a story about how wonderful the place was. It’s a fraudulent facility.
Number one they said to bring his medication and they would distribute it to him. Never once saw a licensed doctor nor did they turn his medication in because one of the staff members stole it.
Number two most clients were using and trying to sell drugs in the facility.
Number three the medical staff were recovering addicts under a year of sobriety.
Number four: was never told he had a doctors appointment and missed it.
Number five: was NEVER seen by a doctor.
Number six: clients were stealing my fiancé’s belongings. He woke up one day with someone digging through his wallet and drawers.
Number seven: Fights broke out daily at the center and clients getting physical with staff.
Number eight: Th therapist was an absolute joke. Saw him for only 10 minutes.
Number nine: Staff didn’t care about patients relapsing and if they did they would go through detox again.
Number ten: Every time I called they would send me straight to voicemail even though I was on his consent list as an emergency contact. Not one staff member was on the same page with other staff. Nobody would tell me a damn thing regarding my fiancé.
Number Eleven: Destroyed some of his medications without consent or knowledge. They also distributed the wrong medications.
Number Twelve: Patients had to cook for themselves while detoxing. My fiancé is a professional chef and they were expecting him to prepare meals for the house while sick.
Number Thirteen: Ran out of food with no staff available to go shopping and supply clients with a variety of food.
Need I say more? This place is a fraud and I DO NOT recommend to anyone who is serious about sobriety. My fiancé was in better shape before he went in and on drugs. They caused unnecessary stress due to the environment he was placed in. He went there putting his health and safety in their hands and he didn’t feel safe there one bit. They have too many patients with little staff who didn’t care for their well being. Staff too busy to tend to patients or provide them with the care they deserve. My fiancé was concerned for his safety and sobriety in this facility. I have read about the facility not having a license to run an inpatient rehab and the person running the place is a fraud himself and had his license stripped in England.
DO NOT SEND ANYONE WHOM YOU CARE ABOUT HERE. I wouldn’t wish this upon my worst enemy. Jail is a better place to be then there.

THIS PLACE IS A SCAM! I don’t really write reviews about places, but I am so appalled with this place I felt it was absolutely necessary.
First off I spoke with a lady who admitted my boyfriend into the substance abuse treatment facility, I explained that he only wanted to detox, and she said that it would be okay, well come to find out everything that she promised was one big lie! It was the biggest nightmare from day one. My boyfriend was admitted, and right as he arrived started his detox process mind you, he was coming off the hardest drug heroin, well they didn’t give him any meds which they promised to help with the withdrawal symptoms which was basically torturous for him… We were lied to when he wanted to discharge and were told that he’d have to pay out of pocket for the 27 thousand dollars after he had only been there for 7 days, well insurance explained that soverign health were lying only to get money, I drove 5 hrs from vegas to cali only to be told to turn back around because my bf wanted to stay, which was a LIE and basically held my bf hostage until he got to sneak off and use someone’s phone to have me pick him up. So I basically drove 20 hours in two days because of this horrible place and the games that they play! This place has 30 law suits that are pending! I can say so much more horrible things about this place but I’d run out of room so all I can say is DO NOT SEND YOUR LOVED ONES TO THIS PLACE, IT IS HELL ON EARTH!

My adult daughter is being treated at Sovereign right now. I use the word «treated» lightly. She suffers from schizophrenia and alcohol addiction; the alcohol being related to trying to escape the voices in her head. I tried to stop her from going there after reading reviews, but my ex-​husband has the insurance on her and would not listen. She has not been given her medication which she desperately needs to keep her stable. Both the therapist and case manager who were assigned to her a little over a month ago have left the company – either quit or fired. I was told by current therapist she sees an actual doctor «maybe» once per week but they have too many patients and are «too busy to keep up with prescriptions». My daughter IS WORSE TODAY THAN WHEN SHE WAS ADMITTED AND SINCE I DO NOT HAVE POWER OF ATTORNEY I CAN NOT GET HER OUT OF THIS HELL HOLE. DO NOT SEND YOUR LOVE ONE TO SOVEREIGN! No, no, no! If I could give this place zero stars I would.

I’m from the inner city of Los Angeles, so flooded with people you don’t even keep track of your neighbors because new people seem to show up every week. With so many unfamiliar faces around worrying about their own lives, it was very easy to hide drug and alcohol abuse or ignore the staggering man with bloodshot eyes hanging around your favorite coffee shop. I became a master manipulator and hid my alcohol addiction from neighbors, coworkers and my family, which is how I slowly threw my accounting career and life down the drain.
For a long time, I «kept my life together» and therefore «didn’t have a problem.» When my dad found me walking down the street half naked and blacked out is when I decided to seek treatment. I needed to get out of my toxic environment and yet had no idea how I was going to come back from my black hole.
When I first arrived at Sovereign, all of the staff members were extremely kind, attentive and thorough. Patient too. I was still drunk from the car ride when I met members from the intake department, patient advocates and clinical staff. Not only am I grateful they put up with me then, but they continued to help me deal with my issues throughout my stay and the rest of the process.
Living on the east side of LA, I rarely took time to enjoy the outdoors of southern California. Getting to see the beauty of the Pacific Ocean was breathtaking for me when we went on beach walks. I was really able to reconnect with myself during these times and found myself journaling too.
Sovereign also brought me to AA meetings where I was taught about the 12 steps, I participated in different individual and group sessions and tried art therapy every week. Art therapy really opened my eyes to how I was suppressing my past trauma.
Sovereign’s programs revealed the possibility of a renewed life, something I never thought I ever deserved or thought would happen.

As a mother of an alcoholic I experienced a very frightening event the second time I took my loved one to Sovereign. That was just last Thursday, Nov. 20^th. I dropped him at 3PM and watched them load him into a van to take to a detox house outlying their corporate offices in San Clemente. I didn’t hear another word from them. Saturday I got a call from the ICU at Cammelback Hospital from my son. He had been transported there by ambulance for an apparent seizure from his withdrawls. I never heard from Sovereign at all. I repeatedly called them Saturday, their patient advocate in particular and NO ONE called me back. On Sunday when he was discharged from ICU, my husband picked him up and took him to the detox house to get his things. Still NO ONE from Sovereign had any information about my son. He apparently had no medical attention on check in, had no medication to help with his DTs. Now he’s back home hallucinating and a danger to himself. I called the patient advocate again today (now my fifth time since Saturday) and no response. I called their intake department and was told them would get back to me. My advice is DO NOT TRUST YOUR ALCOHOLIC TO SOVEREIGN CARE.

After I came out to my parents about my alcohol addiction, they wanted to help. After a few days, they came back to me and told me that they would send me to Sovereign. I needed a change in my life. I was desperate and had pretty much hit rock bottom. I had daily thoughts of suicide. I was not a happy person when I got there — more like miserable and angry.
That said, I had a good experience at Sovereign. In retrospect, I found the staff to be loving, caring people. I stayed for 60 days and yes, it goes without saying that this is not Club Med — that’s not what rehab is supposed to be! Although it was much nicer than one would expect for a rehab. Some rehabs make you scrub toilets and floors with toothbrushes to teach humility, something that many addicts lack. The idea of recovery is to learn humility and skills that I can use to find a different outlet or way to deal with life each day.
The truth is that no one really LOVES going to rehab. It helped that I wanted this change but the truth was that I didn’t know how to manage my own life. I learned some things here that I will carry with me for life. Triggers, different ways to cope, and the staff helped me learn something about myself — things I did not want to admit and still have trouble coming to terms with.
There are plenty of activities to keep you occupied — that was something that was really hard to do, since all I did before was drink. I was able to get some much needed exercise and make some friends too. Some people really liked the art room but I didn’t like that as much as going for a walk and getting some fresh air. I started to read a lot and got a copy of the big book.
Today, I’m almost 7 months sober. I have been going to meetings after I left and staying involved in my own recovery has helped me to stay sober. My life has improved in ways I could not have even begun to comprehend. A note for anyone considering rehab — If you truly want it and can be open to listening, you will do OK. Recovery is work, and will probably be a lifetime of learning, but I got a good start here.

I have a friend admitted here and have called for 7 days straight and no one can connect me to her room or even let me talk to her. I keep getting the run around and for some reason someone is supposed to call me back but still no call back. To add to the misery I am on her list as one of three visitors and they cannot even give me the visiting hours.

Be warned! Stay as far away from this place as humanly possible. Do your homework and look at the reviews, newspaper articles, lawsuits and complaints online before giving them a penny. I am very active in the recovery community and I have helped people with dozens of rehabs all around the country. This place was, by far, the worst I have ever seen. It is not only bad, but it is arguably criminally negligent. If there were negative stars I would rate this place –5.
My friend was admitted on a Saturday. By Wednesday, he had not seen any staff other than the intake people. He needed to see a doctor, a therapist and psychiatrist. It took many harsh emails and phone calls by the family to even get him to see a doctor or therapist. He finally saw a doctor and therapist on Thursday. The staff lied to us and told us he went to a psychiatrist which never happened — he saw a physician’s assistant. Sadly, he started having a mental health emergency and told everyone there. They refused to allow him to see a psychiatrist. The family was calling, I was calling, the patient was begging to see the doctor — yet they didn’t care.
In addition to the above:
~The staff counted medications incorrectly one night and woke our loved one up in the middle of the night. They made him go by ambulance to the hospital for an over-​dose. Well, when he was tested, there were no drugs in his system and the staff admitted to the mistake… an $ 1000 mistake for us
~The staff psychiatrist is only there two times per week, does not see patients, and is about the meanest person I have ever met. She actually insulted people with mental illness
~Patients were dropped off alone at AA meetings, next to a liquor store, with no supervision… on their first week!
~Eating disorder patients are served frozen tv dinners and get no supervision or help with their issues
~Often no staff showed up to group sessions and patients stood around waiting. Often they were late
~Therapy appointments are usually canceled
~The speak of a family program which is usually a full weekend… the one at Sov Health is 1.5 hours on a Saturday with no couples sessions
~We were lied to on multiple occasions — about money, doctor visits, and much more. Everyone there lies
~The place is currently being investigated by California for multiple issues
~The man running the place was stripped of his medical license
Seriously — do not send you loved one here. Read the reviews on other websites and look at all the complaints. This place is really sad and should be closed down immediately and probably will be. We moved our patient to a new place where he is doing great. Don’t be suckered by this ‘snake oil’ place.

I am sickened to even give these criminals ONE star, THEY DESERVE NO STARS. This place is as therapeutic as a snake pit. Our 24 year old, mentally fragile, heroin addicted son was recommended to this hell hole by one of his therapist. We should have done a simple search before sending him into this fraud of a treatment program. They did more harm in the seven days he was there than you could ever imagine.
FIRST, the house he was placed in had no working toilet on arrival. It took them three days to get it to work consistently, then it stopped again causing enough concern that the residents then had to boil water to drink. He was not given any food to me his dietary requirements and paid for his own with a promise of reimbursement. HA, we’ll never see that money from these scam artists.
SECOND, they increased his drugs without any history or physical based only on our son’s request, and he is a drug addict. No supervision and no structured treatment program anywhere in this facility. The staff was in fear of losing their own credentials for working in this dangerous and fraudulent environment. We couldn’t get him out of there fast enough.
THIRD, the people that work at the top are known quacks. One of the «doctors» claims to have studied at Harvard. In fact, he is a DO from a diploma mill in Kansas. Another lost his license in England experimenting on patients with drugs not recommended for such therapy. These idiots were featured in an article:
DO NOT SEND ANYONE INTO THIS HELL HOLE.
There is no therapeutic value whatsoever. It is dangerous. STAY AWAY.

BEWARE: SOVEREIGN HEALTH BILKED ME FOR PAYMENT!

SOVEREIGN is NOT an In Network provider for Blue Cross, thus the patient pays up front and is reimbursed by Blue Cross.
SOVEREIGN DOUBLE DIPPED by taking large payments from me AND taking ALL reimbursement payments from Anthem Blue Cross.
SOVEREIGN HAS THOUSANDS OF MY DOLLARS.
Anthem Blue Cross advised me to file a court claim vs Sovereign.
SOVEREIGN HAD ME SIGN A PAYMENT RELEASE to allow payments to be paid directly to them!
Do you think I was in any condition to read that I was signing away ALL my due payments over to Sovereign Health?
SOVEREIGN sent threatening letters to my home WARNING that if payments were sent to my family and cashed, Sovereign would sue me!
SOVEREIGN REFUSES to discuss the matter, even failing to return calls to Anthem’s representatives.
SOVEREIGN For over a year, has refused to return my calls, emails, letters etc. They claim to be there for their patients while having their incoming patients sign away their due reimbursements?
***Lastly, Sovereign’s facility physician is Dr. Larry Snyder. He’s at the top of his game and anyone would do well be under his care. How Sovereign maintains a medical profession such as Dr. Snyder is incongruent with how the business is run to say the least.
SOVEREIGN is not my recommendation for care. I will need to take them to court as no sign of cooperation has been displayed.
