Testimonials

From the day I first got here to now, a lot has changed. Nothing material for the most part, but within myself I have cultivated trust, honesty and a new faith in recovery. The first month I was here, everyday I struggled with cravings and hopelessness. The 90 day program here gave me time to change my behaviors and thought patterns, get a sponsor, go to meetings and trust the process. The staff here is amazing and have so much hope and experience to share. I am so grateful to have been lucky enough to come to MRC for what will hopefully be my last treatment. The program here has changed my life and brought me to a place in life where I have hope, I am able to persevere, and I am willing to put in the work. I cannot say enough about MRC.

Saying goodbye to my son the day we dropped him off at Midwest Recovery Center, and putting our trust in the staff’s hands to care for, help, support, and guide him in the recovery process was the first day to a new beginning for us all! The days he was there with the men in the house were days to get him on the best start to recovery! We are forever grateful!”

I have had the opportunity to work with clients and staff here in a professional manner. I have worked with other rehabilitation facilities in the past. What’s different about Midwest is that they seem to have a genuine compassion and understanding for addicts and alcoholics that extends beyond a clinical scope.

MRC is set up with a knowledgeable clinical staff as well as a solid peer support staff that supervises the clients 24/7. Midwest is a great start in beginning a foundation for life-long recovery. Beyond educational lectures and clinical therapy – the treatment protocol focuses widely on coping mechanisms, life-skills, and addressing behavioral issues.

Awesome staff, great clinical program, and a comfortable and secure environment for addicts new or returning to recovery.

Talking about addiction is hard, admitting addiction is hard for the addict and the family. Midwest Recovery has given us all a new lease on life. It has given us all hope. Our son has been in the program for 9 months and while every day is still a struggle, every day he has support from the most incredible people. He is learning to deal with life in the real world as opposed to life in a haze, devoid of reality. The first phase of the program kept him very busy with meetings, counseling sessions, bonding with people, and coming to terms with addiction. Now, he has to put all that into practice, work, go to meetings, keep to the rules. He is learning responsibility. Responsibility for his actions and that there are consequences for those actions. He is learning that he needs to have structure and plan to move forward, he can’t just ‘wing’ it. MRC and the staff, Jeff, Kevin and the rest of the crew, are absolutely awesome. They understand that everyone’s story of addiction is the same but different. They want to save their people, they want to make sure they can successfully go out into the world and handle it. They are truly inspirational because they themselves have done it and continue to move forward. We are so thankful and grateful that we found MRC.

Our experience with Jeff and Kevin and the entire Midwest Recovery team has been truly a blessing. Our journey with addiction has taken us down many roads, but we feel so strongly about Jeff and Kevin and their ability to connect with our son. Everything about the operation is top notch, but their compassion and adherence to their plan, is what makes this place special for us. Really good men, who do a wonderful job of listening and sharing their real world experience with not only the people in the program, but their loved ones as well. Excellent communication and a loving atmosphere. We highly recommend Midwest Recovery Centers to anyone battling with addiction.

We chose MRC to help our son because they take a long-term approach to dealing with addiction. Most rehabs are 30 days which in my opinion is not nearly enough time. While the path has been difficult for our family, I feel it was the right choice.

I WALKED INTO MIDWEST RECOVERY LIVING ON BORROWED TIME, MY LIFE WAS JUST DESTROYED AND I REALLY DIDN’T CARE IF I LIVED OR DIED. THE ENTIRE STAFF AT MIDWEST JUST REACHED OUT AND SAVED ME FROM MYSELF! CAN’T SAY ENOUGH GOOD THINGS ABOUT THIS RECOVERY CENTER. THANK YOU!

This was the best decision I could have made for my life. Since the staff have personal experience with recovery and addiction it made me feel more comfortable in trusting them. They genuinely care about how to get you back on your feet and want to see you succeed. I’m glad I gave a treatment a chance and I am grateful it was this center that I went to.

Seeking treatment for my addiction was one of the harder decisions I’ve had to make in my life. To be honest I still can’t believe I was brave enough to get the help I needed. I am forever grateful that I chose Midwest Recovery. Being there gave me the opportunity to work through the issues that lead me to substance abuse and also learning healthier ways to cope. Since leaving I now have an abundance of resources to continuing sobriety and a strong support system. I have never felt more supported in my life by the people around me. I am so grateful for Midwest Recovery. My friends and family relationships have improved. I am clean. I feel better about myself. And I know that things are going to be ok for me and my family.

I owe everything my life has become to what I learned here, and the caring and understanding staff that saw me through some of the worst moments of my life. Almost two years later I haven’t once looked back on the life I chose to walk away from. More than anything else this place gave me back my peace of mind, a luxury I had not known for decades. To anyone questioning what to do next, I cannot recommend a better place to find yourself.

Midwest Recovery Centers saved my life. I don’t think I could have ever gotten this kind of help anywhere else. The staff here loved me until I learned how to love myself, and for that I am eternally grateful. Midwest Recovery Centers taught me how to budget money, live clean, work with others, and be open-minded, honest, and willing in my recovery. The relationships I’ve made here will stay with me for the rest of my life. MRC has supported me 100% through my hard times, and my good times. The phase one houses are very comfortable, welcoming, and not at all like an inpatient facility or a hospital setting. I’ve always felt like I didn’t really belong anywhere, but here at MRC, I feel at home. MRC never gave up on me, even when others would have. They stuck by me through thick and thin. Using all the skills I learned in Phase One, I’m now living in Phase Two and living my best life. I know in my heart that no matter what, MRC will always be my safe place. I 100% recommend going through this program, even when life seems pointless, there is always hope.

This was the best decision I could have made for my life. Since the staff have personal experience with recovery and addiction it made me feel more comfortable in trusting them. They genuinely care about how to get you back on your feet and want to see you succeed. I’m glad I gave a treatment a chance and I am grateful it was this center that I went to.

My adult son had been sober for 6 years and suffered a relapse at the age of 28. We were devastated. We had heard about Midwest Recovery and suggested he try their program. He reached out to one of the directors and this was the tipping point for him. He eventually found his way back to sobriety and to his family with the help of this amazing recovery treatment program. They distinguish themselves in the recovery world by their successful outcomes. Please consider Midwest Recovery if you or someone you love is suffering from the disease of addiction.
