Innovative treatments for rapid relief
At Keta Medical, we’re committed to helping you find the path to healing that works for you. Our promise is simple: personalized care, compassionate support, and the most effective treatments available.
IV Ketamine Infusion Therapy
IV ketamine infusion therapy involves administering ketamine directly into the bloodstream through an IV line. This method allows for precise dosing and rapid absorption, with patients receiving a series of 40-50 minute infusions in a comfortable, supervised setting.
IV ketamine has been shown to provide quick relief from symptoms of depression, anxiety, PTSD, and other mood disorders, often within hours of the first treatment.
Spravato (Esketamine) Nasal Spray:
Spravato is an FDA-approved nasal spray form of esketamine, a type of ketamine, used for treatment-resistant depression along with an oral antidepressant.
Patients self-administer the nasal spray under medical supervision during 2-hour treatment sessions. Spravato has been shown to provide rapid relief from depression symptoms, with many patients experiencing improvements with their first treatment.
"I started treatment in Feb of this year, it was cold and dreary outside but the Doctors and staff at Keta Medical made me feel that my treatment was their main concern. I was immediately optimistic!.. If you are seeking this kind of treatment, Keta Medical is the place to go!"

The fog lifted, and I could finally see a future worth living for. I'm so grateful for the compassionate care and expertise of the Keta Medical team. They gave me my life back."
- Sarah M.
