Evidence based and Patient-tailored Ketamine infusions with  over 80% success

Ketamine therapy uses an anesthetic (ketamine) to safely and effectively treat certain chronic conditions where traditional treatments may fail to be effective. After a patient has been properly diagnosed by a physician, only highly experienced medical professionals can administer ketamine therapy in its most effective form. A patient undergoing ketamine therapy must be properly monitored and cared for by the practitioner for the duration of the treatment. Our providers specialize and excel at this form of care and we have equiped every aspect of our office to facilitate the best experience we can provide for our patients.

Ketamine is an anesthic drug and its intravenous administration must be supervised closely by a board certified MD. Internists, emergency medicine physicians, intensvists and anesthesiologists usually have adequate ketamine use training and therefore should be preferred. 

Other specialties or nurse practioners who have no or little  ketamine exposure during their training often lack expertise to tackle unexpected situations that can arise from IV ketamine use. Such practices might offer cheaper or negotiable rates, but are not safe.

In NY, most providers are busy. Providers write medication orders and then nurse/ nurse practioner implements those orders and supervises each patient.  Unfortunately provider-patient interaction remains limited only to the initial consultation. 

Luckily, Ketamine Wellness Medical Practice is an exception to this bitter reality. Our ketamine specialist Dr. Goyal puts himself out there during each step of our patient's treatment process. Besides providing initial consulation and formulating  individualized treatment plan,  he administers as well supervises each ketamine infusion himself. This helps him to micromanage each session to achieve the safest and the most effective treatment response.

In our practice, we charge $470 for each ketamine session for mental health illness. We waive $20 (credit card service fee) for each session if our patient decides to pay cash. For chronic refractory pain the cost is $450/hour for 2-5 hours session. 

Most insurances do not cover ketamine infusion therapy. Our practice does not file insurance claims but does provide a superbill that has all the necessary information for the patients to file insurance claims. Recently, we have seen more and more of our patients receiving partial insurance reimbursements.  

Yes, our patients can participate in  CARECREDIT and ADVANCECARE CARD financing services. Patients can also get free access to evidence-based, internet-delivered Cognitive Behavioural therapy (iCBT) programs at THIS WAY UP.
