I have lyme disease and chronic pain. I am moving to seattle and was wondering if you have found anybody in the seattle area that administers ketamine.
The most up to date list of ketamine docs is on the Ketamine Klub on FB - click on the "DOCS" link in the upper right hand corner. Good luck!!

The Ketaime Klub is now a closed group. You have to ask to join. They changed it when people started putting members in other groups without asking. Plus posting improper posts. The correct group as a light bulb next to it. The old one still exists. Besure to hit the correct Ketamine Klub to join with and not the old group.

Thank you for your reply. I belong to the Ketamine Klub on Facebook. I am going to make an appointment with Dr. Leverone in LA. My RSD has gone wild since an Aqua fitness class this last Monday. I was hit by a 350 pound man and landed on the bottom of the pool and then hit by another very heavy lady. It was an accident. It started a chain reaction everywhere I have been ever injured and broken things. I am very purple with blow trouch pain from toes to neck along with the sharp stabbing ice picks inside working outword with either burning or freezing extremities.
There are ketamine doctors in Seattle. The Boston Scientific Rep. Knows who they are. I have a SCS put in last year that only went to my rear end and croch area. Not where I had RSD. The 1oth rated neuro in the country did the surgery. He told me to just get used to it going there. MY PCP is going to help me with a Mal-practice suite against him. The battery has moved closer to my spine pushing on it. It also spread the RSD for the 3 months I tried to get it working right. It is totally turned off now. Thank God. This rep. will not tell me the names of the doctors in S. Seattle that do the ketamine infusions. Why did she tell me there where doctors in South Seattle that did it in the first place? I have asked her so nice to please tell me. It is against their protocol to give out doctor's names for ketamine. I have called over 60 doctors in S. Seattle. If I do find one that is qualified, I will post it here and the K. Klub. I do have an excellent PM doctor. I have seen 5 other PM doctors that I would never go back too. This doctor's name is Dr. Daniel Nelson. He is in Kirkland, WA Phone number 425-899-6030. Thank you again for answering my post. hear4

Hi,
I was just wondering if anyone has heard of any docs outside the US that is treating with Ketamine? Costa Rica or Mexico for example. Everything is so darn expensive here in the states and I don't have insurance.
Any suggestions??
Thank you
Beth

Hi beth, I just watched Dr Joshua Prager/UCLA talking about ketamine & he referred to a Dr Cantu in Monterey, MX.

Alan Brewer is in Nebraska now and don't know if the hospital affiliation lets him use K. He is at The Great Plains Pain Clinic in North Platte Nebraska. Don't think Mark Brosnihan in Nebraska is using K except maybe in injections either. There isn't a PM in Nebraska who does infusions. There is a PM in Norfolk Ne that does K injections called My Pain Doctor. No PM in Nebraska will prescribe oral Ketamine, I called them all.

Hi Jerie,

I am not in the know on Ketamine troches. May I ask.. what is that?

I am currently doing injections at Rocky Mountain Pain Solutions with Dr. Rentz. When I first checked him out online I wasn't all that excited. BUT when I went into see him that sealed the deal. I like him.. a LOT. We talked about Ketamine and insurance seemed to be his hang up on that.

Anyway, I am new with these treatments so I have a little ways to go, but I think the compounds and nasal sprays sound like a good idea. Do you have issue with insurance paying for these?

Default Ketamine Doctors

You noted at the bottom that you are looking into Arizona. So far all I have found is the Depression Recovery Center which is very expensive. I will be curious to see what other providers you learn about. Depression is my issue and Ketamine has been recommended by consulting psychiatrist in Atlanta Georgia.
