What a laugh this place was. Dr. Moyer touts her credentials and her dissertation yet they're no where to be found. Just like any good predator, this doctor finds your vulnerabilities and uses them against you. They are all so afraid of their own shadows since the negative media due to their own negligence that they are still doing things wrong. The program they sell is not as advertised, buyers BEWARE! If you want luxury at the expense of understaffing and apathetic top dogs then fork over your money baby, and never mind ... read more

This is a long post, but I think you should read all of it. I spent 5 long days in Sierra Tucson, a rehab facility that also is supposed to treat PTSD and depression. Here are just the highlights: 1. A male patient hung himself to death in the residential lodge. We were offered no support, and at least one patient who knew him left against medical advice. 2. A supposed millionaire was brought into the hospital close to me in my area and surrounded by staff as he yelled and screamed for a phone to call 911 because he felt tha... read more

I have two plane tickets purchased and a cashiers check for Sierra Tucson in my purse. I now plan to waste plane tickets and to deposit cashiers check payable to Sierra Tucson back into my account. In short...Sierra Tucson's attempted emotional manipulation failed. DO NOT be so desperate for help for you or for a loved one that you fall for "healing is most important...we'll work with you financially." Over the course of four days, upfront costs went from $200 to $1200 to $4500. We will make a workable payment plan ($40... read more

I am a parent of a patient who was involuntarily discharged after one week of therapy. I spoke with two psychiatrists, Dr. Moyer and therapist Joan-E, who were involved in the discharge, neither could recall specific events that led to the discharge. Neither of these people could speak from the file although both confirmed that there were complaints. Both retracted statements about my child saying that they really weren't sure what had happened. Both promised to send me a copy of his file and list of other programs at re... read more

I just saw an ad on TV for ST and thought I'd put my truth out there for anyone interested. I found ST in 2003 and suggested it to my ex who is bipolar. This place is run by idiots who don't know what they are doing. They lied to me and made promises they did not keep. They diagnosed my ex as "depressed" and "love addicted" and, while in their care, they allowed her boyfriend to communicate with her. Like giving an alcoholic a beer. If you need help, please find another facility where they have respect for the patients and ... read more

I attended Sierra Tucson in June of 2015. What a disaster. They were bought several months back and the buisiness side is a mess. You don't receive the treatments you were promised and they sign you up for activities you cant do. All the staff constantly send messages to scheduling and nothing changes. they keep saying "just give us a couple more days" So you do...and you do ot again and you just get frustrated and more depressed.They are dealing with peoples lives here and they don't care. They just want the money so they k... read more

I went to sierra Tucson in April of 2015 and left after a week due to their inability to schedule me for activities i could attend. you are given a colored bracelet which stands for what you can and cannot do. i was given a red bracelet by the doctor and could not do any physical activities or classes and no doctor could tell me why i was on the red bracelet (i am perfectly capable of all activities) and my schedule constantly had stuff on it that i would be kicked out of because of the color of my bracelet so i spent most d... read more

although admittedly established, sierra tucscon is not a good place! NEVER been quite sure how they get away with seeming like a top facility.. i'd say they pay off the reviewers. if you dont already have a problem, theyll give you one. there are highly trained professionals here who give nonsense diagnoses; the staff is disorganized and rude as hell, not to mention the layout is completely isolating and depressing. do yourself a favor and save your money! Go somewhere else....anywhere else.

I helped to get a friend into Sierra Tuscon who was suicidal. He did not have much money so I worked with friends and family to find the money for a 45 day treatment program. My friend was very direct in telling the inpatient people the issues he was dealing with. His greatest fear, after trying other clinics was that Sierra Tucson could not help him. He arrived on a Wednesday evening at 11 PM and was told on Friday morning by Dr. Genovese, the lead doctor on the case, that they could not help him. I spoke with Dr. Genove... read more
