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.
