KetaMD Expands Access to Ketamine Therapy in Florida to Combat Mental Health Crisis

| SFBW Staff

With nearly 3 million people in Florida experiencing a mental health condition, a Miami-based telemedicine company aims to expand at-home treatments to ensure residents can access the medical help they need. With ketamine becoming more widely accepted as a viable form of treating mental health issues, KetaMD, Inc. is expanding the availability of its virtual platform and mobile app to residents in Florida suffering from depression and other related mental health conditions.

KetaMD’s HIPAA-compliant telemedicine platform offers treatments guided by registered nurses. Eligible patients are chosen by one of KetaMD’s licensed Florida healthcare practitioners and receive medically supervised treatments conducted virtually by registered nurses. Evidence-based research has shown ketamine to be scientifically proven to produce antidepressant effects in people with depression.

“We’ve seen improved outcomes firsthand from ketamine treatment in our clinics and in our clinical trials, Dr. Roger McIntyre says, CEO of KetaMD’s parent company, Braxia Scientific. “People suffering from major depression and mental health conditions need immediate access to safe, affordable, reliable, and readily available innovative treatments that will improve their quality of life. KetaMD is doing just that.” 

With this week marking Mental Illness Awareness Week, KetaMD aims to increase its operations by expanding session availability to provide additional support to Florida residents needing treatment and help. 

“Through KetaMD’s digital telehealth capabilities, we are committed to bringing awareness, accessibility, and scalability of the benefits of ketamine for those suffering from depression and other mood disorders,” Warren Gumpel says, CEO of KetaMD. “As a Miami-based company, we are pleased to roll out our services in Florida first. If we are successful in diverting just one person from choosing suicide, we know it would be mission accomplished.”

Adults interested in ketamine treatment for eligible mental health conditions can download the KetaMD mobile app directly from the App Store or Google Play or visit www.ketamd.com.

BIOGRAPHY

Drew Limsky joined Lifestyle Media Group in August 2020 as Editor-in-Chief of South Florida Business & Wealth. His first issue of SFBW, October 2020, heralded a reimagined structure, with new content categories and a slew of fresh visual themes. “As sort of a cross between Forbes and Robb Report, with a dash of GQ and Vogue,” Limsky says, “SFBW reflects South Florida’s increasingly sophisticated and dynamic business and cultural landscape.”

Limsky, an avid traveler, swimmer and film buff who holds a law degree and Ph.D. from New York University, likes to say, “I’m a doctor, but I can’t operate—except on your brand.” He wrote his dissertation on the nonfiction work of Joan Didion. Prior to that, Limsky received his B.A. in English, summa cum laude, from Emory University and earned his M.A. in literature at American University in connection with a Masters Scholar Award fellowship.

Limsky came to SFBW at the apex of a storied career in journalism and publishing that includes six previous lead editorial roles, including for some of the world’s best-known brands. He served as global editor-in-chief of Lexus magazine, founding editor-in-chief of custom lifestyle magazines for Cadillac and Holland America Line, and was the founding editor-in-chief of Modern Luxury Interiors South Florida. He also was the executive editor for B2B magazines for Acura and Honda Financial Services, and he served as travel editor for Conde Nast. Magazines under Limsky’s editorship have garnered more than 75 industry awards.

He has also written for many of the country’s top newspapers and magazines, including The New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Miami Herald, Boston Globe, USA Today, Worth, Robb Report, Afar, Time Out New York, National Geographic Traveler, Men’s Journal, Ritz-Carlton, Elite Traveler, Florida Design, Metropolis and Architectural Digest Mexico. His other clients have included Four Seasons, Acqualina Resort & Residences, Yahoo!, American Airlines, Wynn, Douglas Elliman and Corcoran. As an adjunct assistant professor, Limsky has taught journalism, film and creative writing at the City University of New York, Pace University, American University and other colleges.
