Among the medical professionals at Austin Ketamine Specialists is Board Certified Family Nurse Practitioner Sherri Scott-Hunter. Sherri brings 23 years of experience to the practice, including time in psychiatric emergency care and time treating veterans of the armed forces. As with the rest of the team, Sherri believes in the mission of Austin Ketamine Specialists, hoping to “make a lasting difference in…patients’ lives.” Their approach to care is based on the idea that every person deserves to live a life unburdened by mental illness or chronic pain. If these sorts of conditions are negatively impacting your quality of life, the Austin Ketamine Specialists team offers hope. Ketamine infusions generally run a course of 6 treatments, with potential booster infusions months down the road. Once ketamine is determined to be a useful medication, intravenous treatment will be administered by a trained professional at Austin Ketamine Specialists’ offices. The clinic provides comfortable, private rooms for the infusion process. During the 40-minute to 1-hour treatment, patients may feel very relaxed, though sometimes nauseous. Any side effects of the medication dissipate within about an hour of the treatment. Studies from many reputable medical schools have shown ketamine therapy to be effective for individuals whose pain and/or mental health conditions are proving to be treatment-resistant. Though “off-label,” ketamine infusion is being hailed as a significant breakthrough in mental health medicine. Austin Ketamine Specialists provide infusions as an alternative for those whose experience treating their conditions with mainstream therapies has been disappointing. Either as an alternative to mainstream therapy or as a supplement to it, ketamine therapy can provide much-needed hope and relief. Discover more Texas Ketamine Clinics
