Mel Pohl, MD, FASAM, leads our committed and experienced medical team. Dr. Pohl is an addiction specialist with over twenty-five years' experience in treating the disease of addiction. He is a board-certified physician, a Fellow of the American Board of Family Practice, a Fellow of the American Society of Addiction Medicine and an accomplished author and lecturer.

Clients entering treatment will find compassionate, flexible treatment that offers hope. Our comprehensive education about the disease of addiction leaves no stone unturned. We believe addiction is much more than addictive use of substances. Addiction does not discriminate. Addiction does not care how many degrees one has or how many square feet make up one's home or even if one has a home. We see the addict simply as a human being who has suffered and endured a life of pain, but we hold no sympathy for our clients, only empathy.

I spent about a month at this program. what an experience.... can't thank Dr. Pohl and the counseling staff enough. I spent time at multiple facilities and found LVRC to be excellent. I bonded closely with some of the people that were there with me - we keep in touch still today after many years. The rooms were comfortable, that staff did my laundry and the chef made some great meals. Dr. Pohls lecture about the brain and the science behind what is happening was beyond helpful for me. I have never been a spiritual person so this portion was easy for me to accept and understand. I have since recommended this place to some of my own family members or friends. They gave me and my family a very clear direction to follow after treatment. Thanks LVRC!!!!

I give their holistic Pain Recovery Program 5 stars, but their entire program has improved dramatically in the 11 years they have been in business. Las Vegas Recovery Center has a new CEO, Johanna O'flaherty who formerly worked for Betty Ford Center. Her focus is on clinical excellence and treating trauma along side addiction. They continue to make updates to their facility, have an extremely dedicated staff, are involved in their community and are committed to an intimate healing setting and providing long-term support for their clients through their alumni association.Their 10 year old chronic pain treatment program has grown and improved substantially. They are one of, if not he only, pain program(s) to publish their program outcome averages on their website here: http://lasvegasrecovery.com/Chronic-Pain-Treatment/evidence-that-our-chronic-pain-treatment-program-works.All programs are still led by Mel Pohl. He is well known and respected throughout the field of addiction. I know many people who have thanked him personally. He has gained a lot of respect from forward thinking medical experts for maintaining his stance that opiates are not a cure for chronic pain and there are better ways to treat chronic pain than treating opiates. Anyone who knows anything about chronic pain treatment knows the field is gravitating towards programs like the one he created a decade ago.While Las Vegas Recovery Center is a highly qualified addiction treatment facility, there simply is no more comprehensive holistic chronic pain treatment program out there. If you have chronic pain and would like to stop taking prescription medication and want to get your life back, this is where you should go. If you are close to Las Vegas, NV and want the best addiction treatment doctor in the state, there is noone more qualified than Mel Pohl in Las Vegas.
