Aegis is the bee's knees. If your looking to deal with an opiate addiction without having to quit your job or live in an inpatient program Aegis is the way to go. Methadone can drastically improve your quality of life. My only hope is that Suboxone is covered or partially covered by Medi-Cal in the near future. As of now it's $699/month. On a low income without Medi-Cal your looking at $250/month for methadone. The doctor is only available Tue, Wed, & Thurs so call and setup an appointment and lessen your misery. Give yourself and your family a break, you owe it to them and yourself.

I owe every day of the rest of my life to the staff at Aegis Treatment Centers in Merced California. They have set the bar in the way of treatment centers. And second place isn't close. I was a slave to opiate addiction and for almost 5 years it looked as if I would spend the rest of my life going from doc to doc, 'shopping'. Then when the docs cut me off ALL of my income was devoured by my addiction. I called Dr. Jason Crow in October of 2013. The next day my wife and I, dredding the idea of a "methadone clinic", went through the Intake process at Aegis. From the moment we walked in I knew we would be ok. The idea that I was sick began to transform into a plan to get better. Dr.Lasher is easy to talk to and very informative as to how the plan is to work. I had the pleasure of chatting with Cindy the sweetest dosing nurse you will ever meet. Dora and Jerica are the face of the place and always welcome you with a smile. And you better act right because Nora will come out of that office in a hurry :). All joking aside, please make the choice to get your life back NOW. As of this review, 9/24/2014, I am proud to say I am 100% opiate free!!!! I owe everything to this team of amazing people, and there are SO many people I am forgetting to name. At Aegis we are a family, even though I am discharged I know I am always welcome to come by for a visit. THESE PEOPLE ARE THE BEST AT WHAT THEY DO.

I love the staff the Doctor truly care not only that the other clinics are like an drug swap meet.Theres a zero tolerance policy here so dealers and drug seeking patients are not going to be here. I've been to them all. The staff are very beautiful inside and out I owe my life to this location. If you want methadone just to add on your list and plan to use go elsewhere.

I recently visited the Merced facility and met with the clinic manager and some of the staff. The facility is clean, welcoming and the staff is very professional and friendly. I would recommend this treatment facility to any of my friends.

Nice little Missionary Baptist church, Sierra College Beauty School and a methadone clinic in the shopping center!

My experience with Aegis has been very well. The staff has been very professional and helpful. I've learned in the past several years about how to deal with my addiction and other problems that go with it. After 30 odd years of repeated drug offenses, I've managed to get off parole. I finally broke the chain of my addiction with the assistance of this program. I've been drug free, I'm a free man, no parole, no probation, and free from opiates. In my opinion, this program has a lot to offer, all for the taking if you are willing to break the cycle. Be kind to yourself.

Saved my life...after 30 years of using heroin I'm sure I did not have much more time. My daughter was growing up with an absent parent and a mentally absent parent. My last resort was making the appointment at Aegis. I saw the Dr and got in. I was able to stop using right away. 8 months in my Mom died. I have never known.such pain....but I did not use. My counselor was there every step of the way with me. Also teaching me parenting without guilt and just living again I have almost 6 years now...and I'm very grateful The girls up front, nurse and doctors are great too. They all take the time to ask about my family and greet me by name. 5 stars isn't enough....

Everybody here are all kind and considerate. The office is respectful of your needs and privacy. They've bent over backwards to make sure I have everything I need and that makes life much easier. Keeps the stress out of your life. I was stuck on opioids and just couldn't get off it without help. I finally found it here. Been coming nearly a year and I'll be finished in about 6 months at the rate I've been tapering off. No more panic attacks or vomiting. I'm working my way off slowly and man do I feel better. It's great having people care and not judge you for your weakness. Not once here has anyone made me feel weak or that I couldn't do it. So amazing. Thank you Aegis staff and thank you to my counselor, David. He's the best. 🥰

Been here 10 years and I can honestly say I been clean from opiates 9 of those 10. I really owe my life to this place. I'm coming to the end of my treatment by almost being tapered off, but everyone is here for different lengths of time. As long as you try then you WILL get clean!
