We were showcased in a 2011 issue as "One of the Top 11 Leaders in Treatment".

The Scott © is the original leader in concierge luxury rehab blazing a trail in the field of addiction. Our doctors and clientele have helped us to develop our treatment plans over the course of the last ten years beginning in 2010.

Yes we were in the 2013 issue “Inside Hollywood’s Swankiest Rehabs”.

The Scott © is a hybrid of a successful U.S. Medical Boards Model developed for doctors struggling with their own addiction and other disorders. It is the most successful model in the business and provides an interdisciplinary medical and clinical higher level of care. The U.S. Medical Boards Model has out proven the Minnesota Model or Malibu Model with an 80% success rate vs. a 95% failure rate. The Minnesota Model was developed for company employees with addiction issues; the company would allow the employee to check into treatment for 30 days so that employee would generate more revenue for the company. The Malibu Model was developed for marketing purposes only; not based on medical research. The Minnesota Model and Malibu Model are center-centric. The Scott © model is client-centric.

Since ancient times spa therapies are scientifically proven to lower stress levels holistically as opposed to prescription drug abuse. Here is what we do not understand: Our competition are charging robust fees, are not including spa accommodations and when a client goes off-site for spa services there are hidden fees. Remember the bottom line for treatment centers owned by large healthcare corporations are all about profit. With The Scott © it is all-inclusive. Spa therapies raise self-esteem which is especially important for some of our clientele who have not left their home in months or years.

One of our PhDs, a scientific researcher, was one of the original pioneers of a scientific therapy.

Never.

We are. What we do not support are medical doctors, psychiatrists or psychopharmacologists prescribing lethal amounts of medications for patients much more than a hospital would administer. For example, if you have been battling pain-management or clinical depression for many years you must be on a certain amount of medication. Conversely, "The biggest and fastest-growing part of America's drug problem is prescription drug abuse," says Robert DuPont, a former White House drug czar and the director of the National Institute on Drug Abuse. "The statistics are unmistakable." "Prescription drugs cause most of the more than 36,000 fatal overdoses each year" says Leonard Paulozzi of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Since the year 2019 these fatal overdoses have exponentially skyrocketed.

We will absolutely honor this request. Many individuals benefit greatly from 12-Step programs and some require other resources.
