I initially began my ketamine infusion therapy back in December of 2019, up in the San Francisco…read moreBay Area where I am from. By the time I found Gateway on Montana, I had already had 10 treatments, so I was extensively familiar with the myriad benefits. After a series of situations requiring a temporary relocation to Santa Monica recently brought me to the neighborhood, I happened to stumble upon this beautiful facility one sunny day in July, and was warmly greeted by Zohreh. After a lovely chat, I immediately scheduled their next available appointment, and was able to get an infusion within two days (on a Saturday), at about half the price I was paying in the Bay Area, which was such a relief to discover. I am so grateful to have found this place, and have now had five sessions at Gateway Clinics. As someone who is very sensitive to all pharmaceuticals, and neither tolerates nor desires any traditional medications, I am thankful to have discovered ketamine on the advice of a functional (aka holistic) psychiatrist a few years back. I have since learned that Ketamine is a tremendously safe, versatile, and wonderful drug that has been used since the early 1960s, and may be administered at different dosages, in any one of three ways: as an anesthetic (for sedation, like during surgery), as an analgesic (to achieve relief of chronic pain), and as a psychedelic (requiring much lower doses, for mental health support). In my case, ketamine has been instrumental in helping me with all of the following areas of concern: depression, anxiety, PTSD, OCD, trauma, addiction, suicidal ideation, fatigue, sleep, cognitive performance, mental clarity, and even everyday functionality on a seemingly ordinary human level that so many of us take for granted (until compromise thereof occurs). Within one treatment, ketamine also gently washed away a lifelong fear of needles and IVs, and this annoying obstacle has never returned. I like to say that ketamine (as with most psychedelics) often quite dramatically improves one's capacities: to care for self and others; to move through the world of experience with greater ease, mindfulness, and attention to the present moment; to love more of what is; to gravitate away from the tendency to overcomplicate things, and rather toward a preference for simplicity; and in general to suffer less. It was by way of studying philosophy for 10 years that I discovered meditation and psychedelics. I would never have imagined that a deep immersion in academia would lead me here. Absolutely everyone on the Gateway Clinics team is of the highest caliber. Locally, Zohreh is phenomenal, and creates an inviting atmosphere that makes you want to come in and stay awhile. All of the Nurse Practitioners are phenomenal, and treat their patients with the utmost care, kindness, compassion, respect, and even joy. The founder, Clay, and his wife, Ariane, are both spectacular human beings. I am genuinely impressed with every detail of this practice. The entire organization feels very much like a family, and without doubt they are mission-driven to heal the world, one bodymind at a time. In addition to safe, convenient, and legal psychedelic therapy, Gateway also offers several vitamin infusions, B-12 shots, and a perfect array of products to go, such as: targeted wellness and supplement sprays; high potency medicinal mushroom tinctures (e.g. Lion's Mane and Shitake); raw superfood chocolates featuring adaptogenic mushrooms and herbs; and a nice selection of quality CBD products, including tinctures, gummies, and flower. Life is already struggle enough in so many ways. On my view, every being alive deserves the chance at a happier, healthier, more peaceful experience of existence if at all possible. Wholeness is a birthright; and psychedelic therapies are unquantifiably vital to the end of helping to facilitate precisely that. I highly recommend this "Gateway" to infinite possibility. We are so fortunate to have it here.

Dr. Ho is especially compassionate and takes time to really listen, which we didn't always experience with other pain specialists we tried.

Walking in before the appointment, my mom could not sit up and had to lay down on the waiting room couch. After the procedure, my mom has been able to walk short distances without her cane. We are very grateful for the care she has received here.

I cant stress enough how caring he was and how urgently he took care of my condition. He walked me through every step of what happened, what caused it, and exactly what we were going to do to take care of it, together. He even helped me thru the hassles of my insurance company and was fully transparent about information needed or steps i needed to take to get the best coverage for my treatment plan. He truly is a god send and I owe everything to him. Highly recommended to all. A gem - 10 out of 10!! He saved my life.

Each time, the staff assured me that Dr. Kumar would handle it. He never did. Despite repeated calls and clear communication about the urgency, the prescription was not refilled before he left town. Because of this failure, I was left without essential medication for about 10 days, causing needless pain, stress, and disruption to my daily life. The office staff were consistently difficult to reach, and when I did manage to get through, I felt they showed little compassion or urgency in addressing a very real medical need. I filed a complaint with the California Medical Board regarding this incident, and I have written confirmation that the complaint is currently under review.

He did an exam and immediately knew where the pain was coming from and what needed to be done. IT WAS MY NERVES! He advised for me to get 2 Medial Branch Blocks and if they were both successful then a Radiofrequency Ablation would need to be performed. I did all 3 and I feel amazing!
