Ripoff Report Verified™ REVIEW:

EDitor’s UPDATE: Positive rating and recognition has been given to Ocean Hills Recovery for its commitment to excellence in customer service.

Ripoff Report’s discussions with Ocean Hills Recovery have uncovered an ongoing dedication by the company to total client satisfaction. This means that clients can expect that the company will work towards finding a mutually satisfactory resolution to any complaints or concerns. Ocean Hills Recovery listens carefully to client concerns and sees them as an opportunity to learn from past mistakes and become more efficient as a company in the services offered and the support for those services.

Ocean Hills Recovery principals, Gregory and Nicole Doss, has assured us that client satisfaction is their number one priority! They believe that by providing excellent and concerned customer service they will creat a bond of trust with their clients that will create an environment of safety and comfort that will naturally result in a perfect environment for recovery. Helping their clients in every way they can is their purpose.

Another top executive of the company told us that Mr. Doss has, "devoted his life to helping others. He is meticulous about answering any concerns of his clients. His policy is to never argue with a client. He believes that most people really just need be to heard and that's what he does. He listens to every concern and is immediately and effectively responsive.” One of the other things Ripoff Report learned in the course of its review is that typical customer feedback reads: “Ocean Hills Recovery saved our son's life. For the first time in a long time we are sleeping soundly. They have given our boy back to us.”



The information provided in this report below is based on comments made by Greg Doss during an on-site inspection held by a third party verification company with no biases toward Ocean Hills Recovery.

Ocean Hills Recovery is a company specializing in individual treatment for alcoholism, drug abuse, dual diagnosis and mental health. Leads are acquired primarily through referrals, as well as internet marketing. The typical customer experience begins with a treatment protocol being established, such as it being a 30-day, 60-day, or 90-day treatment. It depends on the individual customer and what they are seeking treatment for. Customers reach out to Ocean Hills Recovery, either directly, or a family member or loved one will call for the person needing treatment. “First we [conduct] a full assessment to see whether or not it’s a good fit for what their problems are and what services we provide through counseling and one-on-one therapy and everything else to see if that is a natural fit. The second process is just basically a face-to-face negotiation on our fees and whether it’s insurance-based or private paid-based to see if it would be a fit,” explains Greg Doss, a representative of Ocean Hills Recovery.

Ocean Hills Recovery Customer Care & Complaint Resolution

At times, people may not feel satisfied with the service or treatment they receive. Mr. Doss explains that there are typically two types of complaints that they encounter. The first is from the patients who are unsuccessful in the recovery program and complain that Ocean Hills did not cure them or help them recover and that they still want to use. The second type of complaint centers around insurance issues. Mr. Doss explains that there is often confusion and misunderstanding surrounding the portion that would be paid by insurance, the portion that is paid out of pocket, and how that affects deductibles. “These issues we cleaned up and can avoid in the future because of processes we’ve put into place to avoid lack of clear communication. We’ve learned over the years how to make it very clear to people by putting everything in writing,” explains Mr. Doss. He also explains that the complaint posted to Ripoff Report “basically just wanted a refund, he wanted his money back. He stayed here for 2 months, built a case complaining [that] it was dirty, etc. We let him in for half price to begin with and then he… sort of black mailed us till we paid him to stop defaming our company.”



To resolve the issue, Ocean Hills refunded a part of the person’s fee and he, in turn, admitted that the complaint was unwarranted and was not legitimate. Once a person’s treatment is complete, Mr. Doss states that they do not have follow-up practices in place. “We have various credentials in place and are highly regulated by various state and industry entities that we get certified by. We do all the diligence up front and inform all of our patients what is expected and when,” explains Mr. Doss. Since receiving complaints, Ocean Hills has implemented various protocols to ensure that every experience is a well-informed one.

Mr. Doss and the team at Ocean Hills Recovery recognize the value of working with Ripoff Report and the Corporate Advocacy Business Remediation and Customer Satisfaction Program and the platform it provides for businesses and clients to interact and resolve issues. “We are happy to be able to respond and resolve any and all issues with any and all patients,” states Mr. Doss.
