Meet The Team
A Team Focused on Consistent, Supportive Care
At Los Angeles Rehab & Detox, the strength of the program comes from the people who support it each day. Our team is made up of individuals with experience in healthcare, addiction treatment, and recovery support, all working together to provide a structured and reliable environment for clients.
We prioritize consistency, communication, and professionalism so that each person in our care feels supported throughout their time in treatment.
Leadership
Michael Wondimu founded Los Angeles Rehab & Detox with the goal of creating a treatment environment that is both structured and genuinely supportive.
With a background in healthcare and personal exposure to addiction and recovery through close relationships, he recognized the need for programs that go beyond surface-level treatment. His focus has been on building a setting where individuals receive personalized care, clear guidance, and the level of attention necessary to support long-term change.
He remains actively involved in the program, ensuring that operations align with the core values of integrity, accountability, and patient-first care.
KD Tesfaye plays a key role in supporting the development and direction of the program. His involvement contributes to maintaining a consistent standard of care and ensuring that the client experience reflects the program’s commitment to structure, respect, and long-term recovery.
Clinical and Support Staff
In addition to leadership, clients are supported by a team that may include:
- Medical professionals overseeing detox and stabilization
- Therapists providing individual and group counseling
- Support staff assisting with daily structure and accountability
Each member of the team plays a role in maintaining a safe and stable environment where clients can focus on recovery without unnecessary distractions.
An Involved and Accessible Team
One of the defining aspects of the program is the level of involvement from staff at all levels.
Clients are not treated as numbers or cases. Staff remain present, engaged, and accessible throughout the treatment process. This helps build trust and allows for more consistent progress.
A Team Built Around the Client Experience
Every aspect of the team structure is designed to support the client’s experience from admission through discharge.
This includes:
- Clear communication and availability
- Consistent daily interaction and support
- Coordination between clinical and operational staff
- Focus on both immediate needs and long-term outcomes
The goal is to ensure that each individual feels supported, understood, and guided throughout their time in treatment.
