“Jim was my doctor when I began my journey into living a sober lifestyle and explained to me the science of addiction. Jim not only supported me with my issue at that moment, but he also continued to advise me on my sobriety along the way. Jim gave me the faith I needed to deal with my issue and kept me sober by sharing his experience, strength and hope until the issue was resolved. If I ever needed Jim, he made time to support me. I would recommend to anyone who needs help with addiction to reach out to Jim. You will never find a more genuine and dedicated person in this field.”
