Patient Questions about Point Loma Clinic

This 4-question summary is matched to the protocols and conditions Point Loma Clinic treats. Editorial responses are HealingMaps-authored, grounded in our 2026 Ketamine Clinic Intelligence Report.

Does Point Loma Clinic offer ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP)?

Yes — Point Loma Clinic 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 Point Loma Clinic suited for treatment-resistant depression?

Point Loma Clinic 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.

Does Point Loma Clinic treat chronic pain conditions?

Yes — Point Loma Clinic treats chronic pain. 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.

Can Point Loma Clinic help with anxiety disorders?

Yes — Point Loma Clinic 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.
