Ketamine Treatment Through Our Partnership with Avesta
Dr. Khanali has partnered with Avesta Ketamine Wellness, and Dr. Eshkevari, to provide a comprehensive treatment approach. Infusions are delivered by Avesta at their own facilities; our role is the psychological care alongside it.
About This Partnership
Ketamine treatment is not delivered at our offices. Dr. Khanali has partnered with Avesta Ketamine Wellness and Dr. Eshkevari so that clients who may benefit from ketamine can access it within a coordinated treatment approach rather than in isolation.
Dr. Eshkevari founded Avesta Ketamine Wellness. She is a retired professor emeritus at Georgetown University, where she taught graduate nursing and medical students for 25 years. In three locations, McLean, Bethesda, and DC, she and her staff provide an environment for IV ketamine infusions.
Decisions about whether ketamine is medically appropriate for you, and the administration of any infusion, rest with Avesta's clinical team. Our role is the psychological assessment, therapy and coordination that sits alongside it.
