What is Ketamine Therapy?

Located in Bethesda, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has conducted extensive research on ketamine’s benefits for treatment-resistant depression. NIMH-sponsored studies consistently show that intravenous ketamine quickly alleviates depressive symptoms.

"Remarkably, while monoaminergic antidepressants take weeks to work, the effects of ketamine on depression occurred within hours."

—Joshua A. Gordon, M.D., Ph.D

Director, NIMH

Ketamine therapy is a revolutionary treatment that has shown significant promise in alleviating symptoms where traditional medications have failed. Ketamine infusions administered under the supervision of our experienced medical professionals can offer rapid relief and long-lasting results, improving mood, reducing anxiety, and enhancing overall well-being.

How Much Does Ketamine Therapy Cost?

Insurance coverage for our ketamine treatment for depression is limited, and Washington Interventional Psychiatry does not participate in insurance plans or bill them on your behalf. However, we will provide you with the necessary forms to submit to your insurance company for potential reimbursement.
