Managing bipolar depression was always risky with antidepressants. Spravato addressed the low without triggering anything else. Dr. Rueda coordinated with my psychiatrist the whole way through.

WHY PSYCHEDELIC MEDICINE?
You've tried the standard path. This is what's next.
Millions of people with depression, anxiety, and PTSD try antidepressant after antidepressant — and still don't feel better. That's not a personal failure. That's treatment-resistant depression, and it's more common than most people realize.
Psychedelic medicine takes a fundamentally different approach. Instead of adjusting serotonin levels like traditional antidepressants, FDA-approved treatments like Spravato (esketamine) and ketamine work on the brain's glutamate system — triggering rapid new neural connections and providing relief that patients often feel within hours, not weeks.
At PMC Psychedelic, we've been at the forefront of this field from the beginning. Every treatment we offer is FDA-approved, clinically supervised, and tailored to you — not a generic protocol.

Dr. Carlos Rueda, MD, MBA — Medical Director, PMC Psychedelic
Dr. Rueda began offering ketamine therapy when most clinicians were still skeptical of it. That early commitment to evidence-based innovation, combined with his background in both medicine and business, has shaped PMC Psychedelic into the trusted, pioneering practice it is today.
A graduate with dual training in medicine and business administration, Dr. Rueda brings a rare combination of clinical rigor and patient-centered care to every consultation. He personally evaluates all new patients, and has built a practice where the staff, the environment, and the protocols all reflect one belief: that people who've tried everything else deserve a treatment that finally works.

Patient Testimonials
Hear it from the people it's helped most.
We're proud of the results our patients experience — and humbled that so many are willing to share their stories. The following are drawn from verified Google reviews.
I had been struggling with depression and thoughts of suicide for over a year. After Spravato sessions at PMC, I noticed a shift that I hadn't felt in a long time. Dr. Rueda's team was caring and thorough.

Westchester County, NY
OCD had controlled my life for years. After ketamine, the thought loops got quieter. Dr. Rueda was straightforward about what to expect and the team was excellent throughout.
P.N.
Rye, NY
The panic attacks I had almost daily are now rare. The ketamine infusions gave me breathing room I hadn't had in years. I'd tried three SSRIs before coming to PMC.
