I have been a patient here for several years now. I have nothing but good things to say about the staff, counselors and clinical psychiatry team. They have always been easy to talk to, easy to work with when I've needed medication adjustments, and they're even willing to get scrappy with my stupid insurance company when they don't want to cover my prescriptions. I am appreciative of everyone here and glad there's a place like this in Mitchell so I don't have to drive even further to Sioux Falls :)
