I came here looking to establish care after moving, and I must say that I am extremely impressed! The office has a very calming and non-clinical vibe. The rooms are all extremely modern and up to date. The consultation itself was extensive, and Dr. Boco spent over an hour with me talking about my treatment and history. There is a strong sense of tranquility in this clinic that makes it stand out. The fact that they work with insurance is also incredible and cuts my out of pocket cost greatly. Thank you again for all you guys do!

I am very grateful to have found ZenKetamine. I sought out IV ketamine treatments for my major depressive disorder. I have seen a tremendous change over the course of a few months. I was immediately relieved when I walked through the door. I knew I had found the right place when I was so warmly greeted by Dr. Boco and Mrs. Dr. Boco. My intake over the phone was with Mrs. Dr. Boco and even though I was at my lowest and struggling she was patient, gentle and kind. They have worked tirelessly to get my insurance to approve the Spravato, esketamine nasal spray, so that my treatment is now financially sustainable for any future treatments. They have all of the things to make a patient feel cozy and comfy during the sessions. They have been accommodating of my husband’s work schedule and generous even offering an Uber when there was a last minute change when my husband couldn’t drive me. I am feeling the best I have felt in a very long time. Dr.Boco made sure at our initial appointment that all of my questions were answered as I was fairly hesitant in seeking something new, yet so desperately seeking a solution. Antidepressants alone always seemed to drop off or stop working initially pulling me out of the hole only to fall back in a couple times a year. Ketamine treatments have brought me a new hope as well as continued improvements in small ways. The simple changes I’ve been able to make, with the aid of this treatment and wonderful care I receive here, have made a lasting affect in my overall wellbeing. Dr Boco is warm and understanding . He leaves me with a different nugget of hope at the end of each session. Whether it be a new idea on how to respond to my thoughts, or an old idea that warms my heart and brings me peace. He always reminds me what to focus on and encourages me in ways that clear the path to hope. Hope is the key for this treatment. ZenKetamine is the perfect place for me to hold on to the seed of hope. The doctors and staff here give careful attention to detail which is what I needed for my hope in myself to grow and thrive. The first treatment brought relief and I have had ups and downs along my path to wellness. Today I am doing great and back to work. I have felt genuine care from the providers at ZenKetamine. If you’re still reading this you might be where I was. You should just go meet them and see for yourself. They saved me.

I have had five infusions so far through Zenketamine. I called around to every clinic in the Sacramento area and Dr. Boco was hands down the most professional, caring, and thorough! Dr. Boco and April genuinely care about their patients safety, recovery and comfort. Feeling safe in such a vulnerable state was most important to me and I’m so glad I chose to come here. I am making great progress and actually feel hopeful for my future.
