Why People Love Us

I am so happy that Aton took my insurance. I was so lucky to have been able to recover in such a beautiful and caring environment. I didn't even know rehab could be like this. I feared going to rehab thinking it was going to be like staying at a hospital. Not only did I get the help that I needed, but I was comfortable even when I was uncomfortable.

This place is incredible. The staff, food, and treatment are all number one. I would recommend them to anyone seeking top notch addiction treatment. Very professional and they took my time there during COVID very seriously. I wasn't even sure if I would be able to get treatment during this time, but I would recommend anyone looking for treatment to go here.

What an amazing place. The food was like nothing I have ever had outside of a high-end restaurant. The Staff was amazing and the whole environment was designed for healing. Absolutely amazing.

Most rehabs are not good - I should know I have been in many - I know Aton is a drug rehab but it did not feel like one. I own a business and leaving work is always hard - I flew in from the East Coast and from the time I was picked up - I knew this was going to be the right place. I appreciated that they worked with me and as a result, I have been sober over one year. This may not be a big deal to some but for me it is a miracle. No matter the obstacle they will help you overcome it.

From the moment that I checked into your facility, I have remained sober! I felt comfortable with the staff and all the amazing therapy offered. I was happy about the holistic options as well as the delicious and nutritious food offered. I don't give reviews but this one is important - just remember if you are reading this - there is help. Aton is a great place and I think will they can help anyone struggling. People get better.

The staff and facility at AToN is truly top notch! The individual therapy and groups made the experience memorable and I feel like I am a different person because of them! The relaxing therapies as well as the other amenities like acupuncture, hypnotherapy, and OMG the massages - I would recommend AToN to anyone needing help and ready to quit. Truly quality treatment.

I highly recommend Aton center for anyone seeking treatment, my 30 day experience at Aton far exceeded my expectations, the facilities, food and amenities are 1st class. The entire staff at Aton truly cares about helping their patients. The nurses, doctors, counselors and staff were simply amazing . Aton's holistic approach to treatment and curriculum was a eye opening experiencing to how wonderful life in recovery can be. My family and I are very thankful for my experience, the Aton Center helped save my life.
