No, we looked into the program, but was too expensive for us.

How much they asked? Have they asked to provide this in cash and asking for

donations?

We were also asked for cash payment and a donation prior to Dr. Gorbis agreeing

to take our son as a patient for the intensive program. We thought this was high

unprofessional and did not go through with the treatment there. In retrospect, I

really don't believe that the program they offered would have been effective for

our son whose OCD was very severe at the time. I would be interested in hearing

from anyone who has experience of the UCLA intensive outpatient treatment

program. Hope we don't need it but just in case it would be good to know about

it for future reference.

" Cash " as in $100 bills? You mean they wouldn't take check or credit

card? If so, that sounds really fishy to me. And what kind of donation

were they suggesting?

I've considered this place in the past, so am very interested in

hearing all input.
