Hi, My daughter is seeing Dr. Kirkpatrick in Tampa Florida, I got an appointment right away within a week and Ketamine infusions with in two weeks. The cost was $7500.00. He is the RSD Research Institute. RSD Foundation. They are located on Busch Blvd. Tampa, Florida.



Good luck to you,

Both hands are effected now so I don't type long. But still, I am on 3 waiting lists for Ketamine (Any-one know a doctor?), one doctor will see me for 15k but he is far away and my current doctors say there is nothing they can do for me. Pain meds that barely touch the surface, no support and still a lot of attitude. Talk with people, search for help and reach out that is all we can do! Unfortunately, I have found that we must find answers ourselves. Don't give up! I made up a saying long ago that I think all doctors should adhere to...."For a man/woman to truly see, they must look beyond their own ego":icon_wink:
