Billings Advanced Psychiatry – Billings, Montana Ketamine Clinics

Known For: Specialist in treatment-resistant depression and chronic suicidality with unique dual neurology/psychiatry training. Pioneer of s-Ketamine in Billings, serving rural patients and veterans across Montana and Wyoming.

HealingMaps Take: Billings Advanced Psychiatry fills a critical gap in eastern Montana — a region dramatically underserved by ketamine providers. Led by Dr. Svetlana Yakov, MD, PhD, who holds dual training in both neurology and psychiatry, this practice brings an unusual depth of clinical expertise to ketamine infusion therapy. Dr. Yakov’s focus on treatment-resistant depression and chronic suicidality positions the clinic as a resource for the most difficult-to-treat cases, and her multi-state licensure (Montana, Wyoming, DC, Virginia, Maryland) allows telemedicine consultations that extend her reach well beyond Billings. The addition of pharmacogenomic testing — genetic testing to predict medication response — demonstrates a data-driven approach to treatment planning that complements the ketamine protocols. For patients in eastern Montana, Yellowstone County, and across the Wyoming border, Billings Advanced Psychiatry is likely the closest option for psychiatrist-led ketamine treatment, and Dr. Yakov’s credentials are among the strongest in the state.

Patient Review

“Dr. Yakov took the time to understand my treatment history in a way no previous psychiatrist had. The genetic testing helped explain why so many medications had failed me, and the ketamine infusions finally gave me relief from depression that had been unrelenting for years.”

Telemedicine across Montana and Wyoming extends psychiatric access to remote and rural communities. Pharmacogenomic testing adds a precision medicine dimension to treatment planning.
