I was in a methadone program for 2 years at 120mg a day so plenty of meathadone was stored in my body. Took drug screen show positive for meathadone of course made me detox cold turkey so I was in active for 3days didnt eat anything. A week later once being active must have released stored up meathadone an show positive. So I got a week supply of suboxone 14 and cut me of and took all my money 280.00. Since I only received a week perscription I ask for a small portion of my money back and was denied. Only one real urine analysis was done I could not prove that the methadone lvls were decreasing because it wasn't proper testing. I asked for just 100 back and was denied. He just took all my money and left me with nothing but withdrawal.

Dr. Gautreaux is a great doctor, he has helped me so much with my recovery process! His current staff are very nice, way better then the staff he had before! Sometimes I forget to make an appointment so I call and Kat gets me right in to see the doctor. Dr. Gautreaux listens to everything I say and helps me with any problems I am having with my prescriptions.

I have been a patient with Dr. Gautreaux for a while and although he is polite he is extremely forgetful and his staff is always changing so no one keeps accurate records in his office. I have been treated very poorly by his current staff members & now that he is "rolling in the dough" it doesn't seem as though he really gives two craps about his patients anymore. He used to be a humble & caring doctor. Now he's a pretentious inflated version of what he used to be. I will no longer be donating my money to his ego or his hummer.
