HealingMaps Take: BOLD Health stands apart in the San Diego ketamine landscape with Dr. David Printz’s extraordinary experience — over 6,000 ketamine treatments administered to veterans with highly refractory depression, bipolar depression, and PTSD through his VA program. That volume of clinical experience is rare anywhere in the country. The clinic uses intramuscular (IM) injection rather than IV, which allows for a more relaxed treatment setting, and their KAP program integrates psychotherapy directly with the ketamine experience for deeper therapeutic benefit.
Market Position: BOLD Health treats both depression and PTSD — the two most common ketamine therapy indications, accounting for 34% of HealingMaps patient inquiries.

What to Expect at Your First BOLD Health Appointment
- Initial intake call — Medical history review and clinical eligibility check. Call (760) 503-4703 to schedule.
- Medical evaluation — in-person or telehealth psychiatric assessment, vitals check, and review of current medications with the BOLD Health clinical team.
- First treatment session — supervised IM ketamine injection in a private treatment room, lasting approximately 60 minutes (15-minute injection + 45 minutes recovery). Sessions are held at 561 Saxony Place, Suite 101, Encinitas, CA 92024. You’ll have a comfortable chair or recliner, dim lighting, and direct medical monitoring throughout.
- Recovery and follow-up — observation period after dosing, mood check-in with the clinical team, and scheduling your next session. Arrange for a ride home; do not drive for 24 hours after your IM session.
What to Ask on Your BOLD Health Consult Call
- How long has the BOLD Health clinical team been delivering ketamine therapy, and what specialty training do your providers hold?
- What’s BOLD Health’s typical full-program cost for the integration-therapy bundle, and do you accept HSA/FSA payments?
- California’s psychedelic-therapy regulatory landscape is evolving — do you stay current with state Department of Public Health and Medical Board guidance on ketamine prescribing?
- Is the therapist who guides KAP sessions independently licensed, and how long are integration sessions after the dosing portion?
- What does BOLD Health recommend for patients who don’t respond to the standard 6-session acute series?
Patient Questions about BOLD Health
This 4-question summary is matched to the protocols and conditions BOLD Health treats. Editorial responses are HealingMaps-authored, grounded in our 2026 Ketamine Clinic Intelligence Report.
What ketamine protocols does BOLD Health offer?
BOLD Health offers KAP and IM ketamine — a 2-protocol practice. Patients can switch between or combine modalities without changing providers. Confirm specific dosing schedules and which protocols are recommended for your condition during your consult.
Does BOLD Health offer ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP)?
Yes — BOLD Health offers KAP, which combines ketamine dosing with structured psychotherapy during the dissociative window. KAP sessions are longer than standalone infusions and priced accordingly. A reasonable consult question: whether KAP is delivered by a single integrated provider, or by a separate therapist working with the prescribing clinician.
Is BOLD Health suited for treatment-resistant depression?
BOLD Health treats depression via KAP for trauma-anchored depression. Insurance coverage is rare for IV/KAP — most patients pay out of pocket. TRD is typically defined as two or more prior antidepressant trials without sufficient response — patients meeting that bar are best candidates here.
Can BOLD Health help with anxiety disorders?
Yes — BOLD Health treats anxiety, including generalized anxiety, social anxiety, and panic disorder. The evidence base for ketamine in anxiety is less robust than for depression, but it can be a meaningful option for patients who haven’t responded to SSRIs or benzodiazepines. Worth asking which of their protocols they typically recommend for anxiety-primary patients.
