Sunrise Detox Ft Lauderdale

There is No M.D. at the facility since I was admitted on 7/12 to date thru today (7-18) and based upon what I’ve experienced there won’t be one. Schedule II and III medications are being dispensed by RN’s apparently under a protocol agreement with an ARNP who herself is working under a protocol agreement with an M.D, Dr. Robert Dr Robert Yodashkin the “Medical Director”. Dr. Yodashkin is from Lithuania having graduated from Vilnius University Medical School. Since I was admitted seven (7) days ago, Dr Yodashian has not been at or in the facility once. Not for one moment. This means that every medical decision, every scheduled medication and every detoxification protocol is being handled by either an RN or an ARNP under protocol agreement with an M.D. I am here of my own free will as I recognize I have a problem and I want to correct it however when handed a receipt earlier today I found this facility charges $480 for what they call a “processing fee “. When I asked about the processing fee and what it was for I was told we charge that every time we charge your credit card. This information was never disclosed to me and had I known that I would have paid for my stay with either a check, a cashiers check or cash. This is a simple fraudulent attempt at charging the customer who in most cases has no idea that the agency for healthcare administration has oversight over this facility. They are defrauding the public with these hidden fees and they are defrauding their patients by stating there is a medical doctor on the premises at all times yet I have been here for 160 hours and counting and there has not been an M.D. on the facilities grounds for one second. Sunrise Detox is located at; 2331 NE 53 Street Ft Lauderdale FL 33308 - someone from AHCA, DCF & the DEA should look into this or they shall continue defrauding the public of their hard earned funds while having RNs doing work that is restricted to MDs only. I don’t want schedule II and/or schedule III medication dispensed to me by a nurse with no orders from a doctor and that is what’s happening with every patient at this facility. I have already seen a woman collapse & had to be rushed to the emergency room. The nurses didn’t even know to check for a pulse or check to see if their airway was clear nor to check and see if there was a heartbeat. The way this facility is being run is dangerous to the public  and it is the agency for healthcare administration’s job along with DCF to oversee it. I suggest an inspection immediately.

Terrible place, my daughters went there for medication stability and they were abusing her. Whenever I called I was always not being able to talk to her unless I tell the staff I will send the cops to check on her will being. so scary for anyone to be there.
