I went into my first infusion a completely different person than I am today, for the better. Healing is such a necessary process to feel inner peace. It’s the fear that stops you from progressing, but if you can harness it and embrace it, it is worth it. The journey has been beautiful. I am so thankful for everyone at advanced wellness and pain. The doctors are truly so Knowledgeable and their bedside manner is incredible. The receptionists are always so welcoming and sweet. I urge everyone to try ketamine. read less

Dr Sharma, Wong and Leathem were very knowledgeable about Ketamine therapy and explained the process throughly. I always felt safe, not just physically, but emotionally. It’s important to prioritize our wellbeing (especially living in a world like this one) and these 6 infusions were so worth it. Thank you doctors and staff! read less

I had no idea what to expect and was scared out of my mind, as I had never used psychedelics before. The team at AWAP who I worked with (Rose, Dr. Wong, and Dr. Leathem) are amazing! The comfort and care they show is beyond what you’d get from a facility that just hooks you up to the drug drip and lets you go. Their service provides so much more than any other company I’ve seen. They are incredibly patient, kind, and take the time to talk you through everything! The additional integration coaching was crucial in helping me process things that were coming up for me after infusions. The team is amazing and the effects I’ve felt from the infusions have been measurable. Not only is my physical body calmed significantly, but my mind and spirit have also relaxed and refocused with a new energy and zest for the future. I am so grateful to the team at AWAP and the process of the infusions. I am finally out of the hole I was in and working with the insights from this process to stay out of that hole! read less

I researched ketamine treatments extensively and found that there is actual science behind them, so I felt encouraged. I didn't want to go just anywhere though so I did more research and was referred to AWAP by a doctor from Mayo Clinic. From the first phone call I had with Dr. Sharma, I felt heard and seen. He truly listened and took his time to answer all of my questions. When I visited the clinic in person I was warmly greeted by Dani and then had an extensive impromptu conversation with Dr. Wong, where I was given more reassurance. Every.Single.Detail of the process from intake to aftercare is so well thought out with the goal of best possible outcomes for patients. Due to my lifetime of trauma, I had major trust and control issues. I never once felt like I wasn't safe. Doctors Sharma, Wong, and Leathem, and Holly, the nurse, tailored my infusions to my individual needs and made me feel so safe. The amount of time that all three doctors and Holly spent with me was mind blowing. I never felt hurried and I felt like a VIP every time I was there. There are clinics that will simply give you ketamine and send you on your way. This is not one of those. They hold your hand throughout providing so many resources to support you throughout the process. I finished my 6th infusion four days ago and I can honestly say I'm a changed person. I have learned things about myself that make my life make so much more sense. I have a new feeling of calm and renewed hope for the future. I got more out of my 2.5 weeks with AWAP than I have out of decades of therapy. I, without hesitation, give Advanced Wellness and Pain my highest recommendation. Thank you Dani, Rose, Dr. Sharma, Dr. Wong, Dr. Laethem, and Holly for taking such good care of me and for giving me a new lease on life. I am forever grateful to each of you. read less

I started going to AW&P for their ketamine program. They include coaching which is extremely helpful. I’d recommend getting extended coaching sessions as there is so much to unpack from their treatment coaching really helps guide you through the process. My mental, health, outlook on life, self-worth have done a complete 180. This process works if you are willing to put in the work. These are all tools to help you get where you want to go, it’s not a treatment that will fix all of your problems. I have now started doing NAD with ketamine as well as exosomes. The NAD really helps with my energy levels, and waiting to see the length that the exosomes will last to treat my autoimmune disease. read less

I think everyone should go through this experience! This is a game changer! It's life changing! I've never really understood how this helps people until experiencing my first ketamine infusion. Imagine being able to know how it feels to detach your anxiety from whatever is causing it. That's exactly what happened. I went in stressed out about needing to spend $90k on home renovations that needed to be done no matter what. That was on my mind and the stress. When I went in and I did my first infusion the stress disappeared but the thought of having to spend $90k was still there. I was 🤯 being able to feel that, the thought of a stressful situation but not feeling the stress at all. It taught me something. What I got out of completing my ketamine therapy program, is that ketamine allows you to get into your own mind and understand the relationship between your emotions and the memory or events that it's attached to. And allowing you to detach those emotional feelings from whatever memory or event associated with those feelings. I realized that whatever caused me to be stressed and worried are 2 separate things. Being able to feel the detachment of the stress and worried feelings from what's causing me to be stressed and worried helped me to learn how to control my emotions and understand them. That's a game changer. It's an experience that you have to feel to truly understand what I mean. In the words of Dr Leathem, "it's like trying to describe a sunset to a blind person." The other thing I got from my ketamine experience is that it helped me realize what my primary priorities in life should be. Most of us forget what our primary priorities in life should be and focus on the wrong priorities. What ketamine did is that it helped me get into my own thoughts and made me realize what's really important to me in life and that we don't have a lot of time here in this world. This experience had made me reprioritize my life and rebuild my priorities around what's really important to me in life. This is why it's life changing along with being able to manage my emotions a lot better when stressful situation comes up. Keep in mind that ketamine is not a cure for anything and no one should go into this program expecting to be cured of anything. Ketamine is a tool that allows you to get into your own mind so that you'll understand yourself and your emotions a lot better. And it also allows you to know what it feels like to detach an emotional feeling from a memory or event. The program is included with intergration life coaching which was important to help guide me in making these new discoveries about myself, my emotions and the relationship between my emotions and myself. You have to want this for yourself to get the most out of it. You have to really want to change yourself. Ketamine allows you to be able to do that if you want it to. Thanks AWAP! AWAP made the experience amazing! They had cool artwork and decorations representing psychedelic medicine, really set the vibe. As you go through the infusion, you're on a zero gravity chair then progresses into the vibrating bed. You're listening to soothing music through headphones. You're super comfortable, you feel safe and feels like you're in good hands. Many ketamine clinics you'll feel like you're going in for chemotherapy. You don't want that. The vibe is everything for the best experience. Dr Leathem will give you one heck of an experience. Dr Wong is very smart and he can explain the science of the medicine and how it helps you detach from your emotional feelings. Dr Sharma will give you the best care. I've been infused by all 3 doctors. Oh, I forgot to mention with AWAP each session was a different experience each time. No 2 sessions we the same. read less

What I liked most about it was how it was more than just receiving the medicine. I received a comprehensive treatment program and steady guidance to help me get the most out of the program. While the medicine is the central component, they accompany this with resources to promote therapy, meditation and journaling about each infusion to make the effects deeper and everlasting. They also put my mind at ease by fully educating me about how the medicine works and providing medical supervision along with monitoring vitals during each infusion. I highly recommend Advanced Wellness and Pain when it comes to treating whatever mental health issues you may need help in overcoming! read less

I have been blown away at the level of care and authenticity from the first phone call to the last treatment. No matter where you come from or what you’re going through, everyone at this facility truly cares about you as a human being. You can feel it from the moment you walk in the building to the moment you leave. The treatments have completely shifted my mindset and in return shifted my external life in such a positive way. It was exactly what I needed to get over the block that has been keeping me stuck. I will forever be grateful for everyone that works here and has supported me through my journey. Thank you AWAP! read less

This is the only treatment that has actually worked for me in 6+ years and results have been long lasting. You can really see that the whole staff actually care about the patients and love what they’re doing and that makes a huge difference in the outcome. They really focus on trying to get to the root cause of the issue in order to set you up for long term results. The treatment rooms are so well thought out and designed to make you feel super relaxed, I couldn’t imagine going through that in any other setting as it really added to the experience. I couldn’t recommend coming here enough especially if you are nervous or skeptical as they really go above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and try and get the best possible results from your treatments! read less
