Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • Virginia Beach outpatient opened in 2026, expanding access across Hampton Roads.
  • Sandstone expanded to ages 18-35 in January 2026, widening addressable demand.
  • Headcount reached about 480 in March 2026, showing continued hiring despite leadership turnover.

What critics are saying

  • Brad Owens and Mike Frisbie exited in March 2026, signaling board-level instability.
  • Revenue depends on insurance reimbursement; Virginia Beach pricing still lists $18,000-$24,000 monthly.
  • Any licensing, abuse, or fair-housing case at residential sites can destroy referral trust.

What makes Sandstone Care unique

  • Sandstone Care targets 13-35-year-olds with age-specific behavioral care across multiple states.
  • Its continuum spans detox, residential, PHP, IOP, telehealth, and family therapy.
  • Vistria-backed platform gives capital and operating discipline versus local treatment operators.
