Aegis Treatment Centers | Oxnard

"This place sucks for myriad reasons. The primary one being that it is a business first and a “healthcare” facility second. They will up your dose every week if you so much as say “yeah, this thing triggered me”, but they don’t tell you how much more difficult it is to get off of methadone than it is to get off any street drug. The “medication” literally sinks inside your bones and causes all kinds of orthopedic problems, while making itself ten times harder to get off of. The withdrawal is way more intense than, say, fentanyl, and yet they will do everything in their power to prevent you from dosing. “Oh? You’re literally 10 seconds late even though there’s a line out the door? We can’t dose you. You’re upset because you’re in withdrawal? Well that looks like public intoxication and we can’t dose you. We have the means to test for that kind of stuff, but we won’t. Did your partner beat you before you got here? Can’t dose you, you’re probably high cuz your eyes are red. Was there a failure of communication between the doctor at your regular clinic and the doctor at this clinic where you’re courtesy dosing? Sorry you drove three hours, but we dgaf so we’re not gonna dose you.” These are all real scenarios that I’ve witnessed or have frequently been a part of. Seriously, I hate this place. I would quit today if I wasn’t chained to it. DO NOT GO TO THIS CLINIC. The staff sucks, there’s only one person in the whole place that cares about patient *wellness* and she does not have a say in who gets access to treatment. Everyone at the front desk is trained to treat this place like a business first. And the managers don’t even care about what’s happening. They openly make fun of people while goofing off. But screw everyone that needs their dose to maintain normalcy on life, right? 0/5 stars."

"My counselor, Nancy is the best and your team is professional and courteous to everyone"

"Excellent for the people treat stay! The ‘nurses and all the vital staff who stand at ‘windows’ are not that. They are a glimpse of the angels that help to heal out souls."

"Aegis & there staff are great, this program LITERALLY saved my wife & I's life. I was living day to day, didn't know when, or how I was going to stop my opiate addiction. Then I found aegis, the admission process has some ppwk to fill out. After that, they started me right away on a treatment plan. I highly recommend aegis."

"Everyone that works at the Oxnard Aegis are all Polite, Friendly. If you have any questions about anything they're quick to help you. What I like the most at this clinic is I don't feel like I'm being Judged."
