Kure opens ketamine therapy clinic in California

Ketamine therapy provider Kure has opened its first clinic in Santa Monica, Calif.

The company provides ketamine therapy services to patients experiencing chronic mental health issues, including treatment-resistant depression, bipolar disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder, according to an April 11 news release from the company.

The clinic was founded by Steve Yun, MD, an anesthesiologist who serves as its medical director and as a safety inspector for the American Association for Accreditation of Ambulatory Surgery Facilities, according to the release.

"As someone who has been surveying the quality of specialty surgery centers for seven years, I'm taking what extensive safety principals I've learned and applying them to how we treat patients here at Kure," Dr. Yun said in the release. "Our staff are trained in advanced cardiovascular life support, specialize in psychiatry, and have backgrounds in emergency medicine and various clinical fields to ensure prompt intervention in the rare case it's ever needed."
