ANR® Clinic - Advanced Opioid Treatment Center Reviews 111

Took the procedure and I’m off suboxone after 16 years of being on it. Staff are helpful every step of the way up to and after procedure. I would recommend this to anyone who is serious about getting off opioids for good. Hopefully will be covered by insurance in the future but I have zero regrets and am hopeful for the future without being tied to suboxone doctors

They gave me back my sister! After almost 20 years of her being physically present but never truly "alive," ANR has worked a miracle. Just one week after the treatment, she was still tired, but I saw her face - the one I knew so long ago that I didn't think could ever return.
I will thank the people behind ANR until my last day. They are angels. Everyone was so kind and understanding throughout the entire process.
ANR must be made available everywhere. This treatment should be funded by the government so more families can experience the joy of reconnecting with their loved ones.

Sounds trite. However, it was a totally life changing experience. The way I feel after 2 weeks of the procedure is incredible. I did not realize the 15 years of Tramadol use had such a negative impact on my senses. I feel things I have not felt in 20 years. Senses are heightened and I can truly enjoy life.

The entire process was seamless from pre-procedure to post. I understood the process completely and what it would take to eliminate the opiates. I have wonderful new life. Thanks

I got my procedure done march 11, 2025. I ever since that morning, I have been clean. This is something I never ever would have thought I would be saying. Fentanyl had a hold on me that was like no other, I’ve tried detoxes, rehabs, holistic medicine, anything under the sun I’ve tried, which led me to ANR. Do yourself a favor, don’t let the skepticism stop you from booking that procedure. The amount of time I have lost is insane, and thanks to ANR I am just now able to be the mother that my children deserve. I’m still adjusting to life back home, everything is so much brighter now. I would take my worst day sober over my best day using. The staff at ANR is impeccable, they actually make you feel heard. As an opiate addict, you typically do not get treated well in the medical setting, so to be able to walk in here and treated like you belonged was a feeling I’ve never experienced. I owe my life to ANR, thank you so much!

Great Experience for a crappy situation!

The staff was incredible from the start to finish. The admin staff were willing to answer all of my questions. The medical staff before, during, and after treatment were phenomenal and incredibly professional.

I am feeling better and stronger each day!

Thank you ANR team for a reset on life!

ANR is indeed an expensive treatment. But please, PLEASE, don’t make the mistake of thinking that cheaper 'alternatives' will work (ahm ahm, Michigan). I made that mistake, and four weeks later, I ended up doing ANR anyway, paying much more than just the original $20,500 I could have paid in the first place.

Go for the best, and don’t compromise on your health. There’s a good reason Dr. Waismann stopped doing rapid detox and took the time to educate the world that detox alone is not enough.

Also, make sure you follow their instructions! They will ask you to do certain things before you fly down there - take it seriously!!!!

This procedure and clinic has changed my entire life. The process was so simple, this could change the lives of every person struggling with opioid addiction, if only insurance would cover it!
Hope you had an addiction as a medical illness It is completely reversible, I am living proof!!!! Insurance can cover REHAB, they can absolutely cover something far more worthy and effective!

The procedure worked. My next few days after the were definitely rough but I'm getting my strength and mobility back. It's all worth it to be free

This is my second review because I recently learned that my soon to be ex-husband wrote a nasty review about ANR over the summer, giving it a one star rating. Coincidentally, his review was written and posted this past July 2024, as we were just days into being separated. A divorce he asked for and later regretted, so the nastiness begins. But with my health?! The mother of his children?? My treatment was on my birthday in 2023. I picked that day on purpose as a gift to myself. I would be remiss if I did not speak the truth about his horrible review. To be very clear, I WAS the patient, NOT him. In an effort to hurt me, he wrote a review that could potentially hurt the reputation of ANR and the care of countless patients in need of help. I don’t understand why. I have a video of him singing the praises of ANR because of my success over my opioid dependency. I was going to include it in my testimonial. I definitely hit rock bottom and needed support, love, understanding and help to literally save my life and this was my chance. I have nothing to hide. I’m not ashamed of my life. I made mistakes, but I had to feel that I could overcome the bad. I needed help. From being on the other side of this dependency and life after my procedure, finally allows me clarity and the ability to be honest about my mistakes and moving forward positively. I also am able to lose the horrible feeling of shame and the undeserved titles of addiction. If this review helps even ONE person, then I’ll take any judgement given to me. It’s a great feeling to know that you are NOT defined by your past. I had to respond because he was never even a patient and managed to conjure up a one star review?? After my medical treatment with ANR, he was astounded at how well I did!!!!He couldn’t believe how happy and alive I became again. How engaged in my life I BECAME from one that I previously hid. Even though he paid for ANR he was not by my side for any part of my treatment or recovery, and even though he paid for it, he sent my cousin with me, paid for first class flights and put us up at the Ritz Carlton. “I don care what it costs, he said, just go get her fixed.” It is unfortunate that someone related to me, much less my husband of 25 years would try to sabotage ANR when it is DIRELY important for so so many people who suffer and are lost and continue to live life the way I did. My testimonial IS ON the ANR website. My OWN children are included in my testimonial at the end. You’ll notice however that my husband was not included. I know who supports me and my lifelong recovery and my happiness. My apologies to ANR for such an unfortunate choice made by someone who ultimately decided to trust leaving my life in your hands without question at the time I did the treatment. And, out of some sort of nasty revenge could possibly sabotage patients from help. Not just help but actual living again. It’s a disgusting display of arrogance and ego and from a physician no less, who pledged to the Hippocratic oath, “to do no harm” to patients. A review like this that could possibly turn someone away; is doing harm. Misogynistic to say the least.. I find it awfully hypocritical to use me to ultimately try and hurt others who may not see ANR as it should be seen because of his callous and careless remarks, especially coming from someone who said they would definitely consider ANR as a solution if ever needed at some point in the future. My trust, my gratitude and my faith in ANR and their staff is unwavering completely. This is AGAIN FIVE STARS for ANR. THANK YOU!

I am a 38 year old male and have been struggling with anxiety/depression for most of my 30’s. The root of my anxiety/depression was due to the loss of my father @ 30 and taking over his responsibilities, running his business. I started using kratom and alcohol to cope with my depression a few years back, i got to the point where i was using kratom every day, approximately 1500mg daily. I became dependent on it and could not stop taking it, even though our company had sold early 2024, i was still suffering from anxiety/depression. I found out about ANR while researching how to stop taking kratom and drinking alcohol. After reading testimonials and trying to quit this dependence on my own, i decided i had nothing left to lose and i wanted to give ANR a shot. The procedure went smooth, it did take a few days to adjust to my senses. After the proceedure all of my senses were heightened like never before. It was as if i was smelling, feeling and tasting everything for the 1st time in my life! Since the ANR proceedure, i have not suffered withdraw and have had zero desire to use Kratom or Alcohol. Not only that but i have discontinued using other substances like THC and vaping Nicotine! I have no desire to use any of it! The 4 chains that once held me down have been broken and I’m finally free. Before ANR i had to use Kratom, THC, Nicotine and alcohol every day in order to feel happy or have any desire To live. Now i know that it was all of those substances that were making me feel so worthless, confused and depressed. I have taken my life back, I’m consistently in the gym and eating healthy again, not because i have to but because i truly want to. I wake up each day ready to take on the day, all of my desire has retuned as it was before. I thank God for discovering the ANR treatment and I believe all of the ANR staff are Angels. IF you feel like you dont want to live anymore, like your worthless and dont know what to do because your dependent on opioids, alcohol and/or both… you need ANR.

I was initially skeptical of this procedure as I didn’t know much about it and never heard of it. However, after speaking and meeting the staff, they made me feel at complete ease. They thoroughly explained the process to me and were right there every step of the way, including post procedure. I could not have done it without ANR and their highly trained team. I highly recommend this to anyone who needs help. It truly is amazing and should be offered to all Americans!

I am amazed at this program. From my first phone call until I left Sarasota, every team member was phenomenal.
John was amazing as well. I loved the model of having someone check on me at my hotel instead of staring in the hospital for three additional days. I love all of the follow-up phone calls I have received in the past two months.
My only constructive criticism is the time I was in the ICU. The nurses didn’t open the blinds or show me how the TV works. If they told me, I was still so sedated that I did not remember.
Thank you.

I was very intrigued after reading ANR's website. I wanted to believe that this wasn’t just a 'too good to be true' treatment, though I was initially afraid it might be. I spoke with the office, and from that moment, I felt a sense of trust with the team that I had never experienced with any other addiction treatment I had tried before.

The team truly understood what I was going through, and the way they explained the process made so much sense. They clearly articulated what was happening in my brain and how it could be treated, which gave me a whole new level of understanding and hope.

Today, nearly two months after my treatment, I barely even think about the word 'opioid.' I don’t care about it, and neither does my body. ANR is the future. It’s heartbreaking to know how many people don’t believe that opioid dependency is treatable—just as I doubted in the beginning.

That being said, it’s not a 100% "walk in the park." You will feel tired after the treatment, and your body will need time to recover and optimize. For me, it took around 8-10 days before I had that incredible realization: 'This is it, it’s happening!' From that point forward, my life has been amazing. I’ve reclaimed what I once thought was impossible to regain.

Nearly 80% of you don’t want to take the pills now and you feel bad about it and depressed, defeated and feel below others because the FDA & Big Pharma labeled us all drug addicts (remember they said the opioid pills were non-addictive) so it worked great for their marketing to label us all drug addicts - but SIR, Ma’am, Business Executive, Christian, pastor, coal miner, teacher, etc, etc. - you are not a drug addict !!! You have been purposefully lied too by the U.S. FDA and the very government of the USA that we all love and the BIG-PHARMA names who purposefully did this to us and then want us too feel bad about it, like we did something wrong - NO, NO, NO!!!!! We just need to get better and I promise you that 6-hours at ANR via Dr. Waismann’s amazing procedure will do it!

Call me anytime / if I don’t answer just text my cell and I’ll call you back soon as I can!

They were professional, informative and what they offer really works. I had an opiate dependency for 2 years and after their treatment I have had zero withdrawal symptoms and zero cravings. What they offer really works, promise me when I say they saved my life.

Let me be clear about ANR - it's legitimate, but you need to understand what you're getting into. This isn't for everyone. The doctors are very upfront: if you're not personally committed to recovery, or if someone's trying to force you into treatment, they won't even accept you as a patient. But if you're genuinely ready to end your opiate dependency quickly and safely, keep reading.
Here's my honest experience:
The Positives:

*You're unconscious during the withdrawal process
*The nursing staff is exceptional - truly top-tier medical care
*Most importantly: no cravings afterward. Zero. The dependency is just gone.

The Drawbacks:

*It's expensive - you need to cover both the treatment and travel costs
*Insurance doesn't cover it yet in the USA since it's relatively new here (though they suggest trying a credit application)

My life has completely transformed since the treatment. Each day continues to get better. While the cost is significant, when it comes to getting off opiates, I haven't found anything that compares. The fact that I could complete the withdrawals without conscious suffering and walk away without cravings made it worth every penny for me. Would do it again in a heartbeat. ANR gave me my life back.

Expensive - yes.
But theres is nothing better, nothing that will allow you really to enjoy your life without cravings that will break you.
Hopefully insurance will cover this soon!

You know how they say that the best miracles in life come when you least expect them. While watching YouTube, I saw a video about Suboxone from a channel called ANR Clinic. I entered their channel and saw more videos of the wonderful Dr. Waismann. That changed everything for me. Today I am free from Suboxone and I feel great about life after doing the program. ANR should be easier to find, that's for sure. I never thought it would be possible!

Friendly before and at check in. Problem is everyone is treated the same. Tried to explain underlying health condition but they assume the only problem is chemical dependency causing all the issues. After treatment forget trying to get ahold if one has any issues. If someone calls you back its the same story, give it a few more days. Its a tiny town where hospital is and only a couple choices for hotels and they know why your there for the stay! Watch your stuff! Horribly expensive bad experience!
