Default Washington State outpatient ketamine infusions?

Hi Folks, I am gathering information for if I decide to do ketamine infusions in the coming months. I have only been able to find one clinic in Washington State that does outpatient ketamine infusions, and had my primary send a referral a few months ago. I then found out that they have decided to not see patients outside the immediate area of the clinic (Yakima) because they receive too many referrals to handle. I’m 3.5 hours from Yakima so they said that I cannot be seen at their clinic, and they will not be processing the referral. Does anyone know of any other doctors/clinics that do outpatient ketamine infusions in Washington State or Portland, OR? I see a few online for Portland but have no idea if they are good. Thanks for any info!!

Hi Missy,

It can be challenging finding someone to do this. Sometimes it takes outright cold calling pain clinics because they don't always advertise infusions or list them as a service. My doc is a case in point. There are two listings here that might be useful. One in Portland and one in Seattle that is 'opening soon".

Good luck!

Thank you, Littlepaw. I guess maybe that is why clinics don't make it obvious they do ketamine, because when people catch wind of it the clinic gets overrun like the one in Yakima! Thanks for the link. The one in Portland looks promising, and I'll also start calling around.
