Aloha Integrative Health — Ketamine Clinic in San Diego, CA

For most of my adult life, I was a hot mess dealing with difficult-to-treat depression, anxiety, and, more worrisome, my suicidality, which has the highest incidence for completion in physicians like me. I was no different than so many other patients like me, experiencing frustrations with treatment failures and slowly losing hope. Thinking I would never get better as I became closer and closer to completing suicide. First, I failed multiple classes of typical antidepressants, including lithium, for one reason or another. Then my trial with deep TMS simply didn’t work for me. I saw one psychologist and psychiatrist after another as I slowly moved through an understaffed and overworked specialty. Finally, I was hospitalized at Sharp Mesa Vista for a series of ECT treatments, which worked well for about 4- 6 months. When practically all hope was lost, I reluctantly tried Spravato (an FDA-approved treatment for treatment-resistant depression). It worked well for my relief of suicidality and some depression. Still not myself, I was nevertheless content with better, but still hollow inside. Unfortunately, I was not happy with the facility where I was receiving treatments. Then I had the good fortune of transferring my treatment and care to Aloha Integrative Health in La Jolla. My first evaluation was conducted by Janet Revels, MSN, RN, PMHNP-BC, a board-certified psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner. She was the first mental health provider who took the time to delve into my psychiatric history. She strongly recommended a newer antidepressant, which apparently augments and complements the effects of Spravato. Honestly, I had my reservations, but I gave it a try. Within a week, I got my life back. I have never felt more alive, hopeful, and happy. As a physician and patient, I recommend Janet Revels without any reservations… Janet Revels is a mental health expert. She knew how to listen and understood me (and admittedly, I’m a difficult patient). In short, she genuinely cared for my well-being. Words can’t describe how indebted with gratitude I am (and my loved ones) to her for literally saving my life. Frankly, Aloha Integrated Health operates like a happy family, which is very rare in our current healthcare environment.

I have been seeing Miss Janet Revels for over a year now and she’s the absolute sweetest and most dedicated person I’ve had the pleasure of being taken care of by! She definitely knows her stuff and truly loves what she does.

I like that fact that I don't have to pay for parking. Overall, great service and experience. I would recommend.

My daughter loves Shelby Swan, her therapist. And I do too. So glad we found her! Cali at the front desk is so sweet. Didn’t have a great experience with one of their medical providers who seemed a bit judgy, but otherwise we’ve had a great experience here. Love that parking is validated.

I'm ADHD. Aloha made me go out of my way to ultimately say no to medication. Now they don't take Molina insurance . Wasted my time .

What can I say everyone is just excellent especially Janet thank you for everything you do my dear ❤️
