Real People, Real Results

PTSD & Depression | Sharon Testimonial

“Since I was 18, I tried everything: EMDR, cognitive therapy, group therapy, and medications. Nothing worked for my anxiety, PTSD, and depression.

After reading about ketamine therapy and finding Phoenix Scottsdale Ketamine Therapy Clinic, I was immediately impressed. All three doctors spent over 45 minutes with me from day one, something almost unheard of today.

Post-treatment, my nightmares stopped, my depression lifted, and my anxiety became manageable.  Ketamine therapy in Scottsdale gave me what years of therapy could not: a real transformation.”

PTSD | Tony Testimonial

“After years of therapy, yoga, and meditation, I was still withdrawn, struggling with PTSD, and barely functioning around my own family. Nothing was breaking the cycle. A colleague who had been through the program shared his experience and that was enough for me to make the call.

Dr. Wong spent more time with me than any doctor ever had. The entire team was present for every infusion, genuinely invested in my progress.

Ketamine therapy in Scottsdale fast-tracked everything I had been working toward. My anxiety dropped, my anger disappeared, and I started enjoying time with my family again.”

PTSD | Matt Testimonial

“After a brain injury, I struggled with PTSD, anxiety, and depression. SSRIs made things worse. Before ketamine therapy, getting through a workday was a challenge.

The environment at Advanced Wellness is thoughtfully designed, and the doctors took time to understand my history. Every detail made me feel safe.

Post ketamine, my anxiety dropped to near zero. I became more available for my family, friends, and passions. I even started playing music again. Ketamine therapy did not fix everything, but it gave me access to the work I needed to do. “

Anxiety & Depression | Iris Testimonial

“After years on antidepressants with constant side effects, I walked into Phoenix Scottsdale Ketamine Therapy Clinic in a very dark place.

The doctors took time to understand what I was going through and made me feel cared for.

The clinic’s warm, thoughtful design gave me confidence throughout every session.

A month after completing ketamine therapy, I’ve maintained a positive headspace and new self-awareness. If you want to heal, trust the doctors and the process.”

Depression & Grief | Barbara Testimonial

“I’m not new to ketamine. It saved my life after a suicide attempt years ago, but 2020 brought me to my lowest point.

Dr. Sharma arranged an immediate consultation with all three doctors. The clinic’s unique environment, with its mindful mask, music, and Viper bed, created a transformational experience.

I felt completely safe from the very start.

I’m now completely off medication after years of treatment resistance. Ketamine therapy in Scottsdale isn’t just about masking symptoms, it’s about real healing.”

PTSD | Robert Testimonial

“After 18 years as a firefighter, I had lost my sense of purpose. A fellow firefighter shared his experience, and that inspired me to start.

What sets Advanced Wellness apart is the preparation they invest in every patient. Before my first infusion, I learned to let go of expectations, approach each session with an open mind, and trust the process completely.By my sixth infusion, my perspective on life had completely shifted.

Ketamine therapy gave me back my identity and a future I am genuinely excited about. I only wish I had found this sooner.”

Depression | Joshua Testimonial

“I feel happy, something I have not felt in a long time.

After trying multiple medications that only took the edge off, my mom found ketamine therapy and everything changed.

From day one, it was incredible. It was a mood booster that actually worked and delivered results faster than anything I had ever tried before.

Before ketamine, no one had answers for my depression. This therapy helped me realize that the answers were inside me all along.

I finally feel like myself again.”

PTSD | Wendi Testimonial

“I tried countless counselors and antidepressants, but nothing worked. I came in for plantar fasciitis and found doctors who changed my life.

After my first ketamine infusion for PTSD, I woke up feeling relaxed.

Something I had not felt in 60 years. It was incredible.

In just two weeks, the change has been remarkable. These doctors truly care, and ketamine therapy gave me my life back.

If you are suffering, do not wait another day.”

Grief Relief | Doug Testimonial

“I was mildly depressed before the pandemic, but when I lost my mom in 2020, I spiraled. Antidepressants never worked for me, so I researched ketamine therapy.

What I found at Advanced Wellness were three doctors who genuinely invested in my progress and never rushed me out the door.

The depression lifted, and the grief over losing my mom became manageable. Something I never expected was my alcohol cravings completely disappearing too.

Ketamine therapy worked for me, and I highly recommend it.”

Depression | Gabi Testimonial

“Three years on antidepressants. They stopped working. I fell into deep depression and started self-medicating with alcohol to cope daily. A friend recommended Phoenix Scottsdale Ketamine Therapy Clinic and I decided to try ketamine therapy.

The doctors sat with me every session. They guided me, supported me, and helped me break free from the cycle that had been controlling my life for years.

I am 56 years old. For the first time in my life I am hopeful. I am looking forward to the future and I am finally ready to be myself.”

Traumatic Brain Injury & Depression | Jack Testimonial

“Years of psychotherapy and Prozac left me numb and completely flat. My life lost all its color. Nothing was working the way I needed it to.

I learned about ketamine therapy for traumatic brain injury and decided to give it a real try. The doctors were kind, understanding, and genuinely invested in my progress.

The experience allowed me to rearrange what truly matters in life. I set aside what was holding me back. I came out a completely different person. I am deeply grateful for everything I experienced here. It was simply beyond words.”

PTSD | Hunter Testimonial

“My brain was constantly waiting for the worst case scenario. I could not sleep through the night without intense stress dreams.  I never allowed myself happiness because I was always bracing for something terrible. The anxiety was relentless.

After my first ketamine infusion for PTSD at Phoenix Scottsdale Ketamine Therapy Clinic and Pain, I had the best sleep of my life. No stress dreams, no waking up in the middle of the night. Even my wife immediately noticed the difference.

The process was easy, fast and nothing to be afraid of. Ketamine therapy changed everything for me.”

Anxiety | Jennifer Testimonial

“I had severe anxiety at a level eight or nine almost every single day. The feeling of an elephant on my chest, inability to take deep breaths, constant ruminating thoughts, and years of broken sleep.

After my first ketamine infusion for anxiety at Phoenix Scottsdale Ketamine Therapy Clinic and Pain, my anxiety dropped to a five almost immediately. I had the best sleep I have had in over a decade. My husband noticed it. My son noticed it.

I feel calm, rested, and positive. I have not felt this way in as long as I can remember.”

MDD & PTSD | Kat Testimonial

“Before I started ketamine therapy I was absolutely lost. Growing up rough left me with PTSD, severe social anxiety, and deep depression that shaped me into a person I did not want to be. I hated my life and did not understand my own mind or body.

After completing my first series of ketamine infusions at clinic, the clarity I have gained is something I truly cannot believe myself. I have never been so optimistic, so ambitious, or so excited about the future.

There was always a person inside of me that I wanted to be. Ketamine therapy finally let that person out. You will not know until you experience it yourself.”

SGB | Tracy Testimonial

“As a nurse, I knew something was deeply wrong. I was spending most of my time in bed, exhausted, unable to sleep, with thoughts running on a constant loop. Journaling and medications did not work. I was living in the dark.

Right after my Stellate Ganglion Block procedure it felt like a light switch went off and the curtains were lifted from my eyes. My memory improved, my concentration came back, and my mind finally stopped running a hundred miles a minute.

I sleep better, I eat better, I want to exercise, and I feel like my body and mind are genuinely thanking me for the first time.”

SGB | Michael Testimonial

“Before coming to Advanced Wellness and Pain I was dealing with severe social anxiety and depression that turned me into a hermit. I withdrew from everyone just to protect myself. Traditional pharmaceuticals did not work and the fear I was living with was almost impossible to put into words.

Going into the Stellate Ganglion Block procedure I was nervous but it was far easier than I expected. Quick, simple, and no side effects.

After two blocks it feels like I have finally unlocked the person I always knew I was on the inside. My anxiety has almost completely dissipated and I am open, social, and present in a way I have not been in years.”

Stellate Ganglion Block (SGB) | Stephanie Testimonial

“Since getting my Stellate Ganglion Block at Advanced Wellness and Pain, the difference has been noticeable in ways I did not expect.

The only side effect was a slightly sore neck for about two days, no worse than sleeping the wrong way. Beyond that, my sleep has improved significantly. I feel less on edge and far less reactive to situations that would normally set me off.

I am also someone who constantly clenched my jaw. Since the block, that tension has completely gone. I can actually feel the release of pressure. Overall, I am doing really well and I am glad I did it.”
