"I have been trying to have Frontier Health. Get me into a drug treatment program for months now. They told me that a woman would be calling me to talk to me about this. I believe that I must have missed the call. So I'm going to call Bristol Behavioral Health Services right now. To see just what's going on with this person that's supposed to be calling me."
— Frontier Health Bristol Behavioral Health Services (Birdeye)"A woman called Heather barked at me that it was group or nothing. I politely told her "no thank you." They did not even talk to me. Heather made it quite clear they had to fill a quota and I was just a number."
