HealingMaps Take: DENT Neurologic Institute is one of the premier neurology practices in Western New York and brings serious medical infrastructure to ketamine therapy. Their strength is in treating neurological pain conditions like migraines, CRPS, and neuropathic pain with ketamine as part of a broader treatment plan. Patients in the Buffalo area benefit from having a large, established medical institution offering ketamine rather than a standalone clinic.
Market Position: DENT Neurologic Institute is an IV-ketamine-focused clinic in the Buffalo metro — the most common cash-pay protocol in the HealingMaps verified directory.

Patient Questions about DENT Neurologic Institute
This 2-question summary is matched to the protocols and conditions DENT Neurologic Institute treats. Editorial responses are HealingMaps-authored, grounded in our 2026 Ketamine Clinic Intelligence Report.
Is DENT Neurologic Institute suited for treatment-resistant depression?
DENT Neurologic Institute treats depression via IV ketamine (off-label, evidence-based). 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.
Does DENT Neurologic Institute treat chronic pain conditions?
Yes — DENT Neurologic Institute treats chronic pain. They use IV ketamine for pain, which typically means longer infusion times and higher cumulative doses than mental-health protocols. Common indications include complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS), fibromyalgia, and certain neuropathic pain syndromes. Pain pricing varies significantly by structure: per-infusion vs. multi-day inpatient packages — verify how this clinic structures their billing.
I started going to the Ketamine clinic for CRPS and the clinic isn’t setup for anyone with this disease because they don’t have a doctor there to titrate the dosage of Ketamine that a CRPS patient requires to treat the patient the way they should be treated. I had spent ten thousand dollars only to find out that after nine months they only raised my dosage once. Dent needs to take this disease off their website so that someone else doesn’t go there thinking they will get the help they need. I feel like they took advantage of me and now I have to start over and spend alot more money to get the treatment I should have already gotten.
Sign me saddened and very disappointed with Dent I thought they were a better Neurological Institute. If anyone else is thinking of using this clinic I would suggest calling other Ketamine clinics to make sure that Dent isn’t wasting your money and time wasting your money and time.
