About

About Laguna Treatment Hospital

Laguna Treatment Hospital is a Chemical Dependency Recovery Hospital located at 24552 Pacific Park Dr in Aliso Viejo, CA 92656, within Orange County. Operating 24 hours a day, the facility is staffed by a medical team that includes Medical Director Gary Mitrevolis, MD and psychiatrist Gaurav Gandotra, MD, and it holds Joint Commission accreditation alongside LegitScript certification and PsychArmor Veteran Ready status — a combination that distinguishes it from standard outpatient or social-model programs across Southern California.

The facility offers three confirmed levels of care: Medical Detox, Inpatient/Residential Rehab, and Co-occurring Disorder Care. Medical detox is delivered under continuous physician oversight with access to an on-site pharmacy, supporting medically supervised withdrawal management without the delays that come from off-site dispensing. The structured 90-day program provides an extended inpatient timeline that goes well beyond the 30-day minimum common at many detox centers.

Treatment at Laguna Treatment Hospital incorporates Medication-Assisted Treatment alongside a range of therapeutic methods including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Psychodynamic Therapy, Family Therapy, Group Therapy, Equine Therapy, and mindfulness-based practices such as yoga, meditation, breathwork, and Recovery Dharma. Co-occurring mental health disorders are addressed concurrently with substance use treatment, with psychiatric support available through an on-site MD-level psychiatrist.

Laguna Treatment Hospital has dedicated programming for Veterans and First Responders, reflected in its PsychArmor Certified Veteran Ready accreditation — a credential that signals specialized cultural competency for these populations. The facility accepts Aetna, Cigna, and Humana insurance plans. For individuals in Orange County or across Southern California who require inpatient detox and an extended residential stay with round-the-clock medical access, Laguna Treatment Hospital can be reached at (949) 647-4618.

Medical Detox & Inpatient Withdrawal Management in Orange County

Laguna Treatment Hospital operates as a licensed Chemical Dependency Recovery Hospital in Aliso Viejo, CA, providing medically supervised detox under the direction of Medical Director Gary Mitrevolis, MD. The facility runs 24 hours a day, meaning clinical staff are present through every stage of the withdrawal process — not just during business hours. An on-site pharmacy supports the immediate dispensing of medications used in withdrawal protocols and Medication-Assisted Treatment, reducing the logistical gaps that can complicate care at facilities that rely on external pharmacies.

For individuals and families in Orange County or broader Southern California seeking inpatient detox with continuous medical oversight, Laguna Treatment Hospital's Joint Commission accreditation and around-the-clock operational schedule represent a substantive clinical commitment. Admissions inquiries can be directed to (949) 647-4618 or hello@lagunatreatment.com.

Co-occurring Disorder Care Within the Inpatient Detox Setting

Many people entering medical detox also carry unaddressed mental health conditions — anxiety, depression, trauma, or other diagnoses that interact directly with substance use. Laguna Treatment Hospital provides integrated Co-occurring Disorder Care as a confirmed level of service, with on-site psychiatric support from Gaurav Gandotra, MD. This means psychiatric evaluation and mental health treatment happen within the same inpatient setting as detox and residential rehab, rather than being deferred to a separate provider after discharge.

The therapeutic framework includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Psychodynamic Therapy, Family Therapy, Group Therapy, and Medication-Assisted Treatment, alongside complementary modalities such as Equine Therapy, yoga, meditation, mindfulness, breathwork, Recovery Dharma, and WellBriety. This breadth of clinical and supplemental programming is supported within a 90-day inpatient structure designed to address both the physical and psychological dimensions of substance use disorders.

Detox Programs for Veterans and First Responders

Laguna Treatment Hospital holds PsychArmor Certified Veteran Ready status, a credential that reflects specific training and programming competency for Veterans and First Responders. These populations often face distinct barriers when entering detox and residential treatment — including stigma around help-seeking, occupational trauma, and peer-culture dynamics that generic programs are not equipped to navigate. The PsychArmor certification signals that staff have received structured training to address these realities.

For Veterans or First Responders in Southern California who need inpatient detox and extended residential care from a facility that recognizes their specific background, Laguna Treatment Hospital offers a program designed with those needs in mind. Insurance coverage through Aetna, Cigna, and Humana is accepted, and the facility can be reached directly at (949) 647-4618.

Insurance, Accreditation & How to Reach Laguna Treatment Hospital

Laguna Treatment Hospital accepts Aetna, Cigna, and Humana insurance plans for its medical detox and inpatient residential programs. The facility is accredited by The Joint Commission — the benchmark standard for hospital-level addiction treatment — and holds LegitScript certification, which independently verifies the legitimacy of addiction treatment advertising and operations. Together these accreditations provide a meaningful baseline of accountability for individuals evaluating detox centers across Orange County.

The facility is located at 24552 Pacific Park Dr, Aliso Viejo, CA 92656, and operates 24 hours a day. Prospective patients and family members can call (949) 647-4618 or email hello@lagunatreatment.com to discuss admission into the medical detox or 90-day inpatient program.
