Global Single Testimonial Block

What our patients say.

“After three antidepressants over five years, I had stopped expecting anything to work. Spravato was different from session one. By week three I felt like I had room to breathe again — and the people at PMC made it feel safe the whole way.”

Testimonials Grid

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.
S.M.
White Plains, NY
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.
A.M.
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.

Results represent improvement, not a cure. Psychedelic medicine does not work for every patient. Dr. Rueda is transparent about this in every evaluation — which is why patient selection is central to how we practice.
Coming Soon

What's coming next in psychedelic medicine.

The FDA approval pipeline for psychedelic therapies continues to advance. We're preparing to offer two additional treatments as soon as they receive federal approval — so our patients won't have to wait.
Coming Soon

MDMA-Assisted Therapy

MDMA-assisted psychotherapy has produced significant results in clinical trials for PTSD. We're preparing our protocols and team now so we can offer this treatment immediately upon FDA approval.
Coming Soon

Psilocybin Therapy

Psilocybin has earned FDA Breakthrough Therapy designation for treatment-resistant depression. When approval is confirmed, PMC Psychedelic will be among the first clinics in the region ready to offer it.

Process Grid

Getting started is simpler than most people expect. Here's the typical path from first inquiry to treatment.
01

Request a Consult

A brief call or telehealth visit with Dr. Rueda’s team to review your history and confirm you’re a candidate.
02

Insurance Verification

We check your PPO coverage before your first appointment — so there are no billing surprises on day one.
03

Begin Treatment

Two supervised sessions per week for four weeks. Each session is approximately two hours in our Port Chester clinic.

Accordion

You can drive yourself to the clinic. You cannot drive yourself home after a session. Please arrange a ride, rideshare, or have someone pick you up. This is an FDA requirement for Spravato, not just a preference.

Experiences vary. Many patients feel a mild shift in perception — dreamlike, slightly detached, or deeply calm. Others feel very little during the session itself and notice changes in mood hours or days afterward. There is no single "right" experience.

Contact our office as soon as possible to reschedule. Consistency matters, especially during the induction phase. Missing sessions can affect your response, so we try to rebook quickly.

Many patients notice improvement within 24 to 48 hours of one of their first sessions. Others experience gradual change over the first 2 to 3 weeks. Results vary by individual and condition.

Yes. Many patients bring a family member or friend for their first session. They can wait in our reception area. You may not bring anyone into the treatment room during the session itself.
