"After explaining to the nurse the SA I experienced as a child, she asked me if I was sure if he wasnt just playing with me. I dont understand how any human could ask that of someone being so vulnerable."
— Birdeye review"The nurse said it was my problem not hers & hung up the phone on me mid sentence. Do not waste your time with a facility that only wants your money and has no desire to help you."
