Herndon Recovery Center's network of programs is directly supervised by its Medical Director. Formerly, Chief Psychiatrist with the Fresno County Department of Mental Health, Dr. Satnam S. Atwal MD is a Board-Certified Psychiatrist. He has been in private practice for over 20 years. Dr. Atwal has long experience of treating addicted individuals. In addition to treating psychiatry issues of individuals participating in programs, he also focuses on medical psychological and social issues causing addictions. Dr. Atwal feels that 60 to 70 percent of individuals suffering from addiction problems also suffer from underlying comorbid psychiatric illnesses. If addiction and psychiatric issues are not treated simultaneously, the chance of relapse is significant. Dr. Atwal does not believe in using confrontation as a treatment tool. Rather, dealing with addicted individuals with compassion, persuasion and focusing on self-esteem issues is more beneficial in the treatment process. In addition, Dr. Atwal has the expertise to detoxify individuals suffering from various chemical dependencies.

Herndon Recovery Center Reviews and Ratings Details
The following is based on a combination of Surveys of Alumni, Staff, Loved Ones, and Reviews and Ratings from around the web.
Reviews at a Glance
- Aftercare Support
Addiction recovery does not end with discharge after completing a rehab program. Facilities that offer aftercare planning and/or support work with patients to ensure sustainable recovery by helping to plan and make arrangements for transitional or sober living, help with housing, vocational counseling, etc.
- Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)
Patients who undergo intensive outpatient treatment continue to live at home and sometimes go to school or work while participating in a highly structured treatment protocol that is focused on ending substance abuse. Programs vary in terms of how much treatment patients receive, how often and for how long. Some facilities design individualized intensive outpatient treatment programs.

How Our Helpline Works
For those seeking addiction treatment for themselves or a loved one, the Recovery.org helpline is a private and convenient solution.
Calls to any general helpline (non-facility specific 1-8XX numbers) for your visit will be answered by American Addiction Centers (AAC).
We are standing by 24/7 to discuss your treatment options. Our representatives work solely for AAC and will discuss whether an AAC facility may be an option for you.
Our helpline is offered at no cost to you and with no obligation to enter into treatment. Neither Recovery.org nor AAC receives any commission or other fee that is dependent upon which treatment provider a visitor may ultimately choose.
For more information on AAC’s commitment to ethical marketing and treatment practices, or to learn more about how to select a treatment provider, visit our About AAC page.
