Based in the scenic city of Santa Monica, California, Neurological Associates offers transformative care for individuals grappling with chronic pain and mood disorders. Pioneering an innovative approach towards relief and restoration, the clinic specializes in ketamine treatments administered by an adept team of medical professionals. Under the adept leadership of Dr. Marisa Chang and Dr. Sheldon Jordan, the clinic employs a broad-based methodology to recovery, acknowledging that comprehensive healing may necessitate a suite of treatments. Neurological Associates treat numerous conditions, including depression, anxiety, and a range of chronic pain disorders.

Our team prides itself on offering cutting-edge, scientifically-validated treatments, such as ketamine infusions, to help patients regain authority over their well-being. For inpatient treatments, patients typically undergo a series of ketamine infusions over a period of about five days within the clinic's comfortable and secure surroundings. The treatment course involves an initial dose of 20mg of ketamine per hour delivered directly through an intravenous (IV) line, gradually ramping up to a maximum of 40mg per hour depending on individual patient responsiveness. To ensure maximum comfort throughout the process, additional medications may be administered to manage potential side effects such as nausea, vomiting, and headaches. In tandem, the clinic also offers outpatient care, in which patients receive daily ketamine doses of 70-200mg over a consecutive 10-day period. The side effects are often transient and typically include fatigue and periods of mild hallucinations, which generally dissipate as the dosage tapers off. Importantly, there are no known long-term side effects associated with the outpatient protocol.
