No pressure, no obligation — just a thoughtful conversation focused on what’s best for you.

This isn’t a high-pressure sales call. It’s a short, honest conversation to help you understand your options, get your questions answered, and decide whether moving forward feels right for you.
In your own words, share what you’re experiencing — whether that’s depression, anxiety, chronic pain, burnout, trauma, or simply a sense of feeling stuck. The more we understand about your symptoms, history, and goals, the better we can determine whether ketamine therapy may be an appropriate and supportive next step.
Wondering if ketamine is right for you? Curious about metabolic psychiatry? Not sure what treatment path makes the most sense for your situation?
Let’s talk. We’ll review your history, answer your questions, and help you clarify your next steps — whether that includes ketamine therapy or another approach better aligned with your goals.
If we’re a good fit, we’ll explain the evaluation process and what to expect next, including timeline, preparation, and treatment options. If we’re not the right fit, we’ll be honest about that — and help point you toward resources or providers that may better serve your needs.
“After years of getting nowhere with my regular doctor, I finally feel like someone is actually listening and figuring out what’s really going on. I have more energy, I’m sleeping better, and I’ve even lost 15 pounds without trying. This has been life-changing.”
“I’d been on four different antidepressants over ten years. No one ever checked my thyroid, my inflammation, my gut. Within weeks of starting the metabolic protocol, I felt clearer than I had in a decade.”
Best decision I’ve made. For years I’ve had a love/hate relationship with alcohol. After just one session, I stopped and haven’t craved it one bit. I completed the protocol and not only have I not drank for the past 7 weeks, I’m sleeping better and am a happier person, husband, and father.”
There’s no catch and no hidden fees. The 15-minute consultation is a real conversation — focused on understanding your needs, answering your questions, and helping you make an informed decision about your care.
You’ll speak with a member of our clinical team who is trained to answer your questions, review your history, and help determine whether our services are an appropriate fit for your needs.
That’s exactly what this call is for. Many people who contact us aren’t sure yet — and that’s completely okay. This conversation is designed to give you clarity, not pressure, so you can make a thoughtful, informed decision about your next step.
Yes. Many of our patients begin treatment while continuing their existing medications. Being on an SSRI or other antidepressant does not automatically exclude you from ketamine therapy.
We carefully review your full medication list during the evaluation process to identify any potential interactions and determine whether adjustments are needed. In many cases, ketamine can be safely integrated alongside your current treatment plan under medical supervision.
We typically schedule the 15-minute call within 1-2 business days of your submission.
Spravato® (esketamine) is often covered by insurance for eligible patients, and our team will help verify your benefits and explain any out-of-pocket costs before treatment begins.
IV and IM ketamine are typically self-pay services, as they are not yet broadly covered by insurance for mental health indications. We provide transparent pricing and will review all fees with you in advance so there are no surprises.
We serve patients throughout San Diego County, including Encinitas, Solana Beach, Del Mar, Carlsbad, La Jolla, and the greater San Diego area. Our clinic is conveniently located to provide discreet, physician-supervised ketamine treatment in a calm and private setting.
If we determine that Seaside Ketamine is a good fit, the next step is a comprehensive medical and psychiatric evaluation. During this visit, we’ll review your history in depth, discuss your symptoms and goals, assess safety considerations, and design a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs.
Dr. Gillin is a board-certified physician with dual certification in anesthesiology and pediatric anesthesiology. After observing that many patients needed more than ketamine alone to sustain meaningful improvement, he expanded his clinical focus to address the biological, metabolic, and lifestyle factors that drive long-term mental and physical health outcomes. He is trained through the Institute for Functional Medicine and in integrative medicine, applying a root-cause, systems-based approach to optimize brain health, resilience, and overall longevity.
You’ve spent enough time trying to figure this out on your own. Let’s have a real conversation about what’s been working, what hasn’t, and what your next step could look like — with clarity, honesty, and no pressure.
