Dr. Sunjay Gupta, MD, science and physician reporter for CNN just had a very interesting piece on the impact on Ketamine on depression, and suicide. You can watch the video below or on the CNN website.

Sub-anesthetic doses (lower than we anesthesia providers would use to put you to sleep) of Ketamine has been coined the greatest discovery to occur in mental health care in the last decade. We are thrilled that it is getting some mainstream attention, the more people know the more we can help!

Dr. Eshkevari is a professor Emeritus at Georgetown University after serving over 25 years as full time faculty. She retired as Professor and Program Director of the nationally ranked graduate Nurse Anesthesia Program in the School of Nursing & Health Studies. She is founder and co-CEO of Avesta Ketamine and Wellness, the longest standing provider of Ketamine and Spravato treatments in DC, Maryland and Virginia.
