Pricing

A very limited amount of published pricing suggests the clinic may sit below average, but this is based on very few comparable services. Review comments on cost are mixed: one owner described the clinic as expensive but worth it for the level of expertise and 24-hour inpatient care, while others said the Total Care Plan helped with longer-term costs and contributed significantly towards treatment.
