As a board-certified anesthesiologist, Dr. Paul Wender is the exact type of professional you’ll need to see for ketamine treatment. The doctor has four years of anesthesiology residency training at University of California San Francisco, which is considered the best anesthesia training in the world, and he has many years of experience as a professional in hospital and outpatient anesthesia.

At a clinic like Bay Area Ketamine Center, you’ll be able to get ketamine infusion therapy that may treat depression, anxiety, and other mental health conditions. Many patients with conditions like these are prescribed a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), and although these can work in many cases, they might not work in many others, and there may be serious side effects. The drugs work by correcting perceived chemical imbalances in the brain, but ketamine therapy may work by actually repairing the damage cortisol and other stress hormones do to the brain during depression.

There can be some significant effects of ketamine therapy, like reducing suicidality and relieving other major symptoms of depression or depression combined with anxiety. Researchers are still studying ketamine and its effects, including side effects, but if a patient is suffering severely from depression or another mental health issue and has unsuccessfully tried other treatments, the potential benefits of ketamine therapy may significantly outweigh the potential risks.
