Ketamine Treatment Center
Ketamine has been shown to be highly effective in treatment-resistant depression, suicidal thoughts, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, PTSD, chronic pain, fibromyalgia, CRPS, and several other conditions. For depression, patients feel effects within 24 hours, as this is a rapid acting treatment, and it starts to lift the feelings of depression within hours to days. The infusions take an hour for most protocols and require that you be driven to and from the center. The procedure is done in a monitored and safe setting by Dr. Sendi, who has been using ketamine for over 22 years in Emergency Department settings as well as in the office. Although each person's experience is different, most patients feel an uplifting, mood-elevating effect during the infusion. The depression protocol generally follows a series of 6 infusions usually twice a week. Our sister site, NOVA Ketamine has more information on scientific studies that support the therapy. Dr. Sendi can be consulted at 703-844-0184 or send an email to email@novahealthrecovery.com to see if Ketamine would be appropriate for you. Although we do not accept insurance, we can provide a Superbill for you to submit to insurance. Many patients are able to receive some compensation from their insurance unless it is Medicaid or Medicare.
