CAREolina Wellness and Infusion Center is a premier medical facility specializing in intravenous (IV) infusions and ketamine therapy. The experienced CAREolina Wellness and Infusion Center team provide exemplary patient care with a holistic approach in their Winston-Salem, North Carolina, office. The CAREolina Wellness and Infusion Center team spent many years researching and administering ketamine through their anesthesiology practice. The team noticed a dramatic rise in both mental health disorders like depression and anxiety as well as chronic pain syndromes in recent years, which led them to explore alternative uses for ketamine in patients who didn’t get symptom relief with other treatment methods. They’ve often found ketamine to be a life-changing treatment, and today they’re helping people with mental health disorders and chronic pain to find a path forward to a happy future through ketamine therapy.
