Important Info:
You do not need a referral from a psychiatrist. Insight Ketamine does, however, require that you obtain an evaluation and referral from a licensed mental health care professional such as your psychologist, psychiatrist, or primary care provider.
Insight Ketamine recommends working with your therapist for further integration in the days and weeks that follow ketamine infusion treatments. The clinic works closely with Santa Fe Integrative Therapy and can help you set that up if needed.
The initial medical evaluation can be scheduled as a telemedicine (video) visit.
Payment is due upon date of services.
Cancellations must be made more than 24 hours in advance.
Your Treatment: What to Expect
If you’re determined to be a good candidate for ketamine infusion therapy after undergoing a complete history and physical examination with Dr. Stewart or Dr. Anderson, a treatment plan (dosing regimen) based on your experience and needs will be developed.
When it comes time for your first infusion, you’ll arrive at Insight Ketamine’s offices and be settled into a recliner in a private treatment room. Your physician will go over the plan and answer any questions you may have while one of the clinic’s technicians places your IV and checks your vital signs.
When you are ready, your eye mask and noise-canceling headphones will be placed. Unless you have particular requests, Insight Ketamine’s staff will choose one of the playlists they have curated. The music is meant to be soothing but not distracting.
The experience is dependent on the dose and the patient. It is most commonly described as a pleasurable, dreamlike state. The sessions can at times be temporarily challenging as different emotions are processed, but the clinic’s staff will be there for support throughout this process.
After the infusion is complete, staff will sit with you until you are fully recovered. During that time you’ll discuss your experience and begin the integrative process.
After you’ve recovered, you will need a ride home. Do not plan to drive a car for at least 4 hours afterward.
The effect of the recommended full course of 6 infusions usually lasts from weeks to months. The effect can be sustained by doing a single booster infusion as needed and determined by your individual response.
