Bowen Center,

200 Hoosier Drive, Angola, IN 46703

"I have been a Bowen patient for almost 6yrs. . I ABSOLUTELY LOVE them! Every facility has that one front desk employee that just makes the visit so comforting and welcoming. The Auburn office would be Tracy at the front desk and the Angola office Katrina at the front desk is very nice also ❤️"

"I have been extremely loyal, dedicated, and engaged with this organization, and after the three years of service, my criticism is this: the Bowen Center is more concerned with profit than their patient’s betterment. I gave considerable effort to the Bowen Center, putting ample time; energy; and determination into, making sure appointments were met; thought be put into them; and recommendations get acted upon. The problem is Bowen did not match this ethic. My appointments with the therapist were not regular (too much rescheduling). My appointments with the life coach were invasive (required more of my time than there’s; time-spent quotas), and my meetings with the psychiatrist were one-way; short and no patient feedback allowed; and, did not reassure me that my best interest were front and center in their mission as a corporate business. UPDATE: We have a better doctor, and concerned therapist. No life coach needed, but administrative efforts through reception is impersonal, untimely, and do not explain, or possibly know, the processes their involved in. Also, nurses do not stick to scheduling! We were told two different timeframes the nurses would be in to administer a critical injection, and somehow the director’s error is our fault! Get your act together and stop prescribing more services and medication to cover your tracks!"

"They really need to be more clear when you are reporting something confidentially or not and/or what role everyone who you are seeing plays within their institution. This way, there won't be confusion that can lead to secrets being released when you're there to be helped only to make things more difficult. Also, be warned of feeling like there is general apathy when trying to work with you to be seen and to follow up on you. If you don't know how to navigate things, and part of the reason you're coming here is to try to fix that amongst whatever else--it's still good to try, and you still should--then you might need to pull forth a lot of patience and try not to wait until it's a crisis, if possible (I have been trying to be helped for years now, but I am still trying [and failing] to even start seeing someone), when trying to begin your treatment here. If you hope they'll follow up on you giving strong hints that you need help, don't count on it. Basically, if you feel like you truly need help getting the helping process started, try elsewhere first. I cannot speak to the actual efficacy of this institution when you actually begin your treatments, because the process leading there has been such a colossal disaster such far."

"I have had many doctors in my time, none have been better than the 2 I have seen at Angola. The nurses are extremely helpful and go the extra mile and really helped in an emergency. The only reason I don't give it 5 stars is that it sometimes is hard to get an appointment with the psychologist on short notice but there is only one at the Angola branch. Well worth it in my opinion. I would not trust anyone else with my life than Michelle or Candice."

"I have never been more disappointed in a place. They schedule your appointments months in advance just to cancel them when it is time to go. Two weeks in a row they have cancelled my appointment. Therapy only works if you actually go. They are not committed to the health of people they are committed to themselves. I am very disappointed in this place considering it was given good review."
