What is the Treatment Philosophy of the Clinic?
At Gilbert Chandler & Scottsdale Ketamine Therapy Clinics, we believe that ketamine therapy is more than just an IV drip—it’s a comprehensive healing process that requires personalized care, integration coaching, and structured support. Unlike many clinics that administer ketamine as if it were an IV version of an antidepressant, we focus on maximizing effectiveness through preparation, integration, and follow-up care.
What sets us apart is our physician-led approach. Our clinic is run by board-certified anesthesiologists, ensuring that every treatment is delivered with medical precision and patient safety in mind. We integrate coaching, education, and structured guidance, giving patients a greater chance at long-term success with fewer booster treatments.
Mission of the Clinic
Our mission is to provide the highest quality ketamine therapy with an emphasis on long-term success, safety, and patient well-being. We are dedicated to delivering cutting-edge ketamine treatments informed by the latest research while ensuring every infusion is supervised by experienced physicians for maximum safety. Our approach extends beyond treatment, offering holistic support through structured integration coaching to help patients achieve lasting improvements. By focusing on sustainable results, we aim to reduce the need for frequent booster treatments, empowering our patients to regain control of their mental health and well-being with a scientifically backed, patient-centered approach.
History of the Clinic
Our journey began during the COVID-19 pandemic, when we recognized a critical gap in mental health and chronic pain treatments. Traditional approaches were failing many patients, and ketamine therapy—though promising—was being underutilized or misapplied. With a strong background in anesthesiology, we developed our own data-driven, patient-centered approach to ketamine therapy.
Early on, we realized that ketamine alone wasn’t enough. Many of our patients struggled with suicidal ideation, PTSD, and chronic pain—issues that required more than just an infusion. This led us to integrate coaching and structured therapy models, significantly improving patient outcomes.
Our unique methodology quickly gained traction, particularly among first responders, where mental health struggles are alarmingly common. We began collecting patient data to refine and validate our process. Now, with years of experience and proven success, we continue to push the boundaries of what ketamine therapy can achieve.
Values of the Clinic
At the core of our clinic are values that shape every decision we make. We prioritize patient-centered care, tailoring treatments to each individual to ensure personalized results. With a foundation in medical excellence, our board-certified anesthesiologists emphasize safety, precision, and expertise. Innovation and research drive our approach, as we continually refine protocols based on real patient data and emerging scientific studies. We uphold integrity and transparency, tracking patient progress and openly sharing dosing information to maintain continuity of care. Our holistic approach extends beyond ketamine infusions, incorporating integration coaching, structured preparation, and patient education for comprehensive support.
