What Our Patients Say...

"I suffer from PTSD and chronic knee pain as a result of my military experience... I heard about Ketamine and spoke with Dr. Ashford about it. I had the treatment and it has significantly improved my perception of pain and most importantly has helped me be less anxious and able to deal with the PTSD and cyclic depression that comes along with it."

- Danny

“I have MS. I have broken my spine. Fibromyalgia. Paraplegias. Muscle contortions. Extreme depression, PTSD, and mood issues. I no longer feel like there is isn’t hope for my future. Athens Ketamine Center gave me the ability to see my issues as potentially manageable for the first time in as long as I can remember. Thanks to all the staff that was there for me. Nothing but positive thoughts and words for all y’all.

- Alex

“Allison, Alexa, and Vince make Athens Ketamine Center such a warm and welcoming place. Their kindness and compassion always set the tone for a pleasant experience. My life has been changed by Ketamine. My body responded to the first treatment within hours. For the first time in 30 years, I don’t live in pain. I never imagined that I could feel the way I do, sleep well, and function like a “normal” person again. Ketamine infusions have given me HOPE, and I am so thankful.”
