A few weeks after I posted on this site Wellington Retreat contacted me after seeing the post.  Dr. Gregory from Wellington Retreat contacted me by phone out of the blue.

Since they threw my child on the street my child had bounced between Halfway Houses and IOP's .  Dr. Gregory said he was calling on behalf on Dr. Moran and they said they were very concerned about my child and wanted to" Bring him back" in the program.

Many things happened to my child after they went back to Wellington Retreat.  One of the many bad things that happened was my child was that he was violently assaulted in one of Wellington Retreat's halfway houses as he was sitting down for breakfast.  

One of the other people who lived in the house came down to the kitchen and ambushed my child for no reason and beat him on head severely.  

There was no staff there at the time and my child was punched in the head and knocked to the ground and then the patient straddled him and continue to punch him in the head until my child was able to finally get away.  

He went outside and until the staff finally showed up they would not give him access to a phone for almost 30 minutes to call the police.

The police came and arrested the other patient.  Wellington Retreat has a no violence policy and the person was supposed to be thrown out.  Instead of that happening I understand Dr. Moran bailed the person out and brought him back into Wellington Retreat to interact with my child.

My son was denied proper medical care after the assault and instead of being taken to hospital he was taken to the clinical building.  They said he saw the doctor at clinical but when I asked for the records or anything else about the attack they would not send it to me.  They would not even take a picture of my child's face so I could see how he looked.

They put my child right back into the high stress program the next day and would not work with us to help him deal with humiliation he suffered at the hands of the another patient while sitting down for breakfast.
 
My child was thrown out less that a month later and has never been properly medically evaluated. He is showing signs of traumatic brain injury and we need to bring him back up here for proper screening. 

I cannot write anything else for the moment.  Once official things are put in place I will post them here.  

No matter what do not send your child to Wellington Retreat or any of their affiliated councilors or locations.  You will certainly regret it if you do.  

Wellington Retreat has been making a real effort in both their treatment and communication issues.  I can honestly say I have seen a marked improvement.  

Dr. Moran and his staff have gone above and beyond everything they have committed to do for my child's care.  

When my child first arrived at Wellington 5 months ago I did not hold out much hope for his recovery.  While I did have issues with communication and some aspects of the way things were done at Wellington Retreat.

I have seen a dramatic improvement with the care my child is receiving at Wellington and really hope that these changes are permanent.  

Dr. Moran and Dr. Gregory have personally assured me that they are doing everything possible to assist in my child's recovery.  From what I have seen in the last week Wellington Retreat and its staff are making real improvements.  

I encourage you to file a complaint with DCF as I have done.  They are licensed for treatment for drug abuse and will be reviewed.  Here is web site:  www.dcf.state.fl.us

You will make a difference.

Stanley W. Wollard, Parent Guardian of Aaron Wollard Aaron reported to me, after his stay for help he never received at an astrinomical cost, that those in the program hoarded their Suboxen to sell other patients to get a high.  Suboxen is a drug to help those addicted to get off drugs.  But this facility, and you will note by other reports, over medicated and to know that those in the program are taking advantage of the ability to sell drugs to friends for their high.   This is not controlled or monitored as it should be for a good rehab facility to send your addicited loved ones.  Do Google this company to get reports from others.  CAREFULL.
