Small Scale, Broad Support

The facility offers multiple levels of care, including residential inpatient treatment, partial hospitalization, and intensive outpatient services. Clients may receive medications for addiction treatment (MAT) for opioid or alcohol use, along with counseling and recovery education. Staff provide round-the-clock support and maintain continuity across the treatment process, helping clients reduce risks of relapse and better manage their recovery long-term.

Comfortable Living in a Home-Like Environment

Set within a five-bedroom residence, the facility includes private and semi-private rooms, most with ensuite bathrooms. The ADA-compliant space is designed for comfort, with a calming atmosphere and shared meals tailored to dietary needs. This intimate setting provides a restorative alternative to larger institutional programs—particularly appealing for individuals seeking privacy and fewer distractions during treatment.

Focus on Access and Stability

The program aims to remove common barriers to care by offering multiple treatment tracks under one roof, reducing the need for external referrals or fragmented services. This kind of integrated care can make it easier for people to stay engaged in treatment while balancing work, caregiving, or life transitions. The small cohort size also supports meaningful connection between staff and clients, which can contribute to stronger therapeutic engagement.

Best Fit For

Herndon Recovery Center may be a good fit for adults seeking a quiet, low-volume setting for addiction recovery with co-occurring mental health support. It is particularly well-suited for those looking for residential care with medication support and a more personal, less institutional experience. The program emphasizes structure, access to medical support, and continuity of care in a small, focused environment.

Mixed Patient Reviews Highlight Strengths and Shortcomings

Feedback on the patient experience is mixed. Some patients describe Dr. Atwal’s treatment as helpful and stabilizing, and note that recent front desk staff have been professional and kind. Others report concerns about rushed appointments, communication challenges, and inconsistent service—especially in years past. For those considering this provider, the reviews suggest a need to weigh convenience and clinical access against the desire for a more personal or communicative experience.
