Bakersfield 21st St.

The 21st street Aegis staff are AWESOME ! They are extremely friendly, courteous and professional. All of them. The "'security" staff keep the grounds free of loitering and drama. My experiences with Aegis continue to be extremely gratifying. THANK YOU !

You guys all rock!!! The fact that it seems you know all the client's by our first name shows you think of us as people not just a file. And guinuanly care when you ask how we're doing. I've never been to anyother clinic so i cant compare but its my understanding you set the bar pretty high. Hands down the best at what you do!!!!

Aegis is a 5 +star rating . I've been an active addict for about 37 , 38 yrs, have been to quite a few in-house rehabs , including the penitentiary, the SAP program. They all worked, well, faked it, till I was completely strung out . Aegis is working for me, I've been on program for 7 yrs, I've used through the whole time, slowly but surely I've slowed down! For me ! WOW ! THAT IS A MIRACLE ! I CAN HONESTLY SAY THAT FOR THE LAST 6,7 MONTHS I HAVEN'T STUCK A NEEDLE ANYWHERE IN MY BODY, I cal it blood of the devil. ( heroin )it's death . Couldn't have done it with out Aegis Treatment Center . THANK YOU EACH & EVERY ONE THAT WORKS & HAS WORKED THERE .I APPRECIATE YOU ALL .

I have seen SO many ways and means to get clean, and most agencies in this town are corrupt to the core, HOWEVER.... This place has been spectacular. Staff are so helpful and nice. Front desk staff: cheerful and helpful Even at 5AM. with a line of ex-users being grumpy at them. //Hey users, if you can wait at a connects place for 2 hours just to get a dime, you can control it here// Nurses: swift and efficient, Also in a good mood at 5AM. Anyone who says different is just wrong...ladie you simply crush it even a long line moves fast with you all there. Counsellors: I can't say enough here, so simply put, Ariana - I wouldn't have come this far without you, serious, whomever gets you after your move is lucky beyond words. And now Tenaya let's keep it going, so far so great. THANK YOU one and all. I NEEDED serious help, and got an entire team of serious help. I now have the rest of my life, and not a gravestone.

Was involved in a car accident didnt realize the pills would take me on a spiral ride Aegis is a Blessing staff are very professional and non judgemental they take pride in understanding your situation Thier encouragement has helped me regain control of my life now i can look forward to my Future Thank you all at Aegis

The staff are great and kind but this place is not fast and convenient many times Ive waited 20 minutes just to get to a dosing window

If you are serious about getting clean and really work the program the way it's intended... Then it works great.. Really helps people with counseling sessions and support groups...again it works if you want it bad enough.. Just like with anything...gotta want to change in order to be successful at changing.

Clean, on site security, and the staff is kind. I would absolutely suggest Aegis for opioid treatment.

Place has saved my life. Staff is very professional and take pride in what they do. If u really wanna shot at quitting opiates check them out.

Most of the staff is excellent some of the nurses are like nurse ratched

Him this best treatment center to go to if u have any opiate Addiction to pain killers e.g. herion

nt counseling each week for an hour.

It really does help people out if you wanna get off of an drug addiction go there.

This place has saved my life. I went from taking 30 norcos a day to none and the staff has helped every step off of the way

It's the place for anyone wants to quit opioids, they are really professional, helpful and respectful to all clients. I have nothing but a good experience with all the staff. Thank you guys.

Ageis is one of the best choices I ever made my counselor I’ll call mrs.B is one of the most amazing ppl I’ve met during my recovery she’s easy to talk to and always has a plan to make my life easier..they all work as a team and always have what’s best for the patient at heart thank you much to the staff and everyone who has helped me achieve my first year clean and sober you are all appreciated

I was a pain pill addict for 8 years. I started off taking vicodin (hydrocodone) as prescribed, but I really liked the euphoric affects it gave me. One a day became 2, then 2 became 4, and by the time it was all said and done, I was taking 15 hydrocodone 5/500 daily. If I had 7/750, then it was 8 a day; Darvocet 6.5/650 was 8 a day (until it was taken off the market); Oxycodone (Oxycontin) 4-6 a day. I was married at the time and my wife just had hernia surgery. I took her prescription and filled it "for her" (Oxycodone, but I don't recall the mgs. per tablet, but she had a qty. of 30). She was ok for a few days so she didn't take anything but Tylenol. After about 10 days she was hurting and decided to take one. I had taken ALL 30 of HER pills because of my addiction (NO REAL HUSBAND WOULD HAVE DONE THAT BECAUSE HE WOULD HAVE PUT HIS WIFE'S NEEDS ABOVE HIS OWN). I finally had enough and searched the Internet "Stop using pain pills now". There was an article about a clinic called Aegis Medical Services that could help with opiate addiction. I called and spoke with the clinic's manager for about an hour and was 85% sure I should go. That Monday I went, got a decent check-up while there, and I've been there on and off for 4 years. People bad-mouth these types of clinics, but I'm thankful for them because now I'm not asking my 16 year-old son (who is now 21) to find me some pain pills. I was fiending (pronounced feening) and knocking on doors whenever I was out. Asking strangers on the streets if they knew where I could get vicodin. I couldn't work because I couldn't pass a drug test. I actually got denied a $20 an hour job changing filters on an oil rig in the Santa Monica area because I was taking vicodin that I didn't have a prescription for. Going to Aegis, I can hold down a steady job and I don't have to ask my son, strangers, or anyone else if they know where I can get vicodin just so I can function. When I feel the time is right, I will GRADUALLY begin a tapering process to get off of it completely and have my life back 100%. I'm only at 28 mgs. and it helps me just fine. Best wishes to anyone who wants off opiates. By the way, DO NOT do the 21 day detox program for $21. It has a 0% success rate. Perhaps try the maintenance management. You will have a much better chance of recovery.

My girlfriend comes hear very cool staff

Saved my life too. Don't be afraid to try

Nurse's are nice and they seem genuine about helping patients.

After having surgeries my body got use to Norco. It started to become a problem and so I reached out to Aegis and got help. There can't be enough positive things said about Aegis on 21 St. Everyone, the Doctor's, outside security, reception help, dispensary and counselors go above and beyond! I am happy to say that at the tender age of 56 I am in the best place of my life because of Aegis! The weekly counseling has played a pivotal role in my recovery and a hope for a bright future. They are so helpful and all work together for my/our good. If anyone, no matter your circumstances, need help for opiate addiction, (pain pills like Norco are opiates) this is the place to call!

It keeps people off of other street drugs like heroin painkiller and if you're serious again these medications or off all the street drugs just let us know we're here to help you insurance cash accepted and another epidemic we're trying to stop and we'll working on right now stopping the speed use because a lot of people becoming positive and methamphetamines and that's not good cuz that possible aching drain the methadone out of your system causing your body going to opiate withdrawal syndrome

The Aegis Treatment Center on 21st Street, Bakersfield CA. is a well run facility with very few hiccups in the daily routine. The front desk nurses are informative and efficient in there duties, as are the nurses that handle distribution of the meds.(Very professional). The counseling staff are well educated and experienced in there positions. Not to be forgotten how well management runs the show. This clinic has my good recommendation because of the professional and friendly personable nature of the whole staff.

Most of the staff is awesome and really down to Eatth, others need their teeth kicked in. But all in all, if you want to stop using opiates, are serious about getting off drugs and have medi-cal, you can get 100% FREE treatment, including 1hr counseling sessions per week. Stop waking up "dope-sick" and hustling to make money for drugs, enough is enough. They have 2 locations now in Bakersfield one is on 21st and N and the other is on Columbus right across the parking lot from 711. Stay well, get clean, and commit!
