Because ketamine causes mild disassociation and temporary grogginess, you must have a trusted adult drive you home. Driving a motor vehicle after treatment is strictly prohibited until the following day.

We believe in complete transparency from the moment you call our office. Every phase of care is explained ahead of time so you always know what to expect.
01
We begin with an in-depth review of your medical and psychiatric history. Our clinical team assesses your physical health, your current medications, and your diagnosis to ensure you are a safe candidate for ketamine therapy at our practice.
02
Every dose is calculated specifically for your body weight and metabolic response. During each visit, you rest in a private, quiet room with low lighting while advanced practice nurses monitor your heart rate, blood pressure, and oxygen saturation from start to finish.
03
Our starter protocol adheres to the evidence-based consensus framework established by the American Psychiatric Association and clinical repeated-dose trials: an induction series of six sub-anesthetic infusions (typically 0.5 mg/kg over 40–45 minutes) administered over two to three weeks to maximize synaptic density and sustain initial symptom remission.
Follow-up booster visits are scheduled individually as needed to sustain your results.
When brain pathways become rigid from long-term stress or chemical imbalances, daily functioning breaks down. Ketamine acts on the brain’s glutamate system to help restore healthy signaling where traditional oral medications struggle.
Clinical depression robs you of motivation and emotional color. Unlike traditional monoamine antidepressants that target serotonin, ketamine acts swiftly on NMDA receptors to spur the release of brain-derived neurotrophic factor. This helps repair damaged neural pathways and provides rapid relief from heavy depressive episodes.
If you have tried two or more standard antidepressant regimens without meaningful improvement, you meet the criteria for treatment-resistant depression. Ketamine infusion therapy gives your brain an entirely different pharmacological mechanism, delivering noticeable relief for patients who believed they had run out of medical choices.
Chronic hyperarousal and memory reconsolidation loops in PTSD are tied to dysregulated prefrontal-limbic glutamate circuits. Repeated IV ketamine infusions target NMDA receptor signaling to disrupt traumatic memory consolidation, as demonstrated in randomized controlled trials published in The American Journal of Psychiatry.
Chronic anxiety burns out the body through constant overstimulation of stress pathways. By calming overactive brain circuits and balancing glutamate activity, our tailored infusion protocols help patients across South Florida regain baseline stability.
OCD creates disruptive cycles of intrusive doubts and repetitive mental loops. Clinical research demonstrates that rapid-acting glutamate modulators can loosen these rigid patterns, giving patients the breathing room needed to regain control of their daily lives.
Refractory migraines often stem from central sensitization and neurogenic inflammation that fail to respond to standard triptans or preventive medications. By blocking NMDA receptors and quieting hyperactive pain pathways in the central nervous system, ketamine infusions help interrupt prolonged pain cycles and reduce the severity and frequency of debilitating headache episodes.
We focus on deliberate clinical safety, medical precision, and a supportive setting where patients never feel rushed or overlooked.
Every infusion is administered and directly supervised by Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists and advanced practice nurses who manage airway safety and cardiovascular health every single day.
We designed our clinical suites to reduce outside sensory noise. Low lighting, comfortable seating, and a quiet atmosphere allow you to rest deeply throughout your session.
No two nervous systems are identical. We monitor your response at each visit and adjust titration schedules based on your direct feedback and physiological vitals.
In addition to IV ketamine infusions, our practice offers Spravato nasal spray and ongoing psychiatric medication management. We help match you with the precise treatment path that fits your clinical presentation and personal schedule.

Understanding the financial side of treatment helps you make confident decisions about your healthcare. Because IV ketamine is an off-label psychiatric application, commercial health insurance policies generally do not cover infusion sessions directly. Other interventional options like Spravato nasal spray are frequently covered by major insurance plans and Medicare when clinical qualifications are met.

When traditional medications fail to provide relief, patients often evaluate advanced clinical options such as IV ketamine infusions and Spravato nasal spray alongside conventional oral antidepressants.
Direct self-pay (HSA/FSA and financing accepted)
When administered at sub-anesthetic doses in a controlled clinical environment, ketamine has a strong safety profile. Our infusions deliver a fraction of surgical doses under continuous medical monitoring, which prevents physical dependency and minimizes cardiovascular stress.
Some patients experience mild dissociation, slight dizziness, nausea, or a temporary rise in blood pressure while the infusion runs. These sensations typically clear within 15 to 30 minutes after the IV stops. Our providers can add anti-nausea medication directly into your IV if you feel sensitive.
Ketamine causes temporary fatigue, mild disorientation, and slowed reflexes immediately following an infusion. For your safety, clinic protocol strictly prohibits driving or operating equipment until the next morning. You must have a trusted friend, family member, or ride service take you home.
IV ketamine delivers a complete, balanced racemic compound directly into your bloodstream with full bioavailability and real-time dosage titration. Spravato is an FDA-approved esketamine nasal spray administered under clinical supervision and is often covered by insurance for treatment-resistant depression.
Most insurance companies and Medicare do not cover IV ketamine infusions directly because the psychiatric application is an off-label medical protocol. We provide transparent upfront pricing and accept flexible spending accounts, health savings accounts, and medical financing such as the Advance Care Card.
Unlike traditional daily pills that can take six to eight weeks to build therapeutic levels, ketamine often begins relieving heavy depressive symptoms and intrusive thoughts within 4 to 24 hours following the first or second appointment.
