Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

The Best! Worth The Long Drive!
I am glad I found Dr. Salisu he seems to actually care about patients and actually makes sure that I'm staying sober unlike the few places here in my hometown which is a good little drive to Monroe, NC and back to my house but as cool as Dr. Salisu & Mrs. V, the receptionist, is awesome as well! Even if you relapse, fail drug tests, they will work with you won't just kick you out! I thought these places were all about the money and I'm sure they care about the money but they EQUALLY CARE ABOUT THEIR PATIENTS AS WELL! If your wanting to get clean & sober but don't want to get ripped off by the lie these rehabs feed you or trying to get clean def go here! No judging and they are ALWAYS nice and respectful!

I was at my lowest and Dr. Salisu gave me the help I needed to get back on track to a normal life and I'm here 3 years later to say that I am eternally grateful and he will do the same for you or Anyone who truly seeks help. He is a blessing.

Horrible experience. Did not slowly take me off my meds I was very sick he seemed to not care much. He also put me on 200 mg of seriquil -I went home and apparently almost set the house on fire making dinner.I told him this incident he then dropped me to 50mg. He would continue to put me on different medications as if I was an experiment. If you want a doctor who cares about you I wouldn't suggest Salisu. Stay away he has no idea what he is doing and hurt me and my daughters lives. Hes HORRIBLE.

He doesn't seen to sit inudgment of anybody. He honestly wants to help everybody that he can help. He was extremely nice. I really honestly think this program is the best decision I have made in a long time. I have seen friends of mine improve while on the suboxone program.
