When you are exploring another option
Finding care after treatments have fallen short can feel exhausting. Music City Ketamine offers IV ketamine evaluations in Franklin for people in the Nashville area. A consultation is a place to ask questions, review options, and decide whether further evaluation makes sense.
CRNA-administered care and anesthesia-level monitoring
Marla Peterson, CRNA, administers IV ketamine with anesthesia-level monitoring in a private treatment room. Vital signs are continuously monitored during the infusion. The CRNA is present during treatment but does not remain in the room continuously.
Tell the clinic about your current treatments and prescribers. Do not change medication without your prescriber’s guidance. Ask about preparation, transportation home, recovery, and follow-up before your appointment.
Conditions we evaluate
Treatment-resistant depression, PTSD, anxiety, and chronic pain are among the concerns evaluated at MCK. Treatment is individualized. The evidence differs across conditions, and evaluation does not guarantee eligibility or improvement.
What to know about IV ketamine
Ketamine is FDA-approved for anesthesia. Its use for depression, PTSD, and anxiety is off-label. Esketamine nasal spray is a different medication with separate FDA-approved uses; those approvals do not apply to IV ketamine.
Potential risks include sedation, dissociation, blood-pressure changes, breathing problems, misuse, and bladder symptoms. Clinical screening and monitoring matter. Discuss your health history, medications, risks, alternatives, and recovery instructions with your care team. FDA: ketamine safety alert (archived copy linked by FDA).
Pricing, without the guesswork
Mental wellness infusions are $475 each; six infusions total $2,850. The initial phone consultation is free. The number and timing of treatments depend on clinical assessment and response. A six-infusion total is a cost reference, not a promise of results or a requirement for every patient.
Pain infusions have separate duration-based pricing, from $475 to $1,425. MCK: infusion pricing and pain tiers. Ask about your treatment plan and total cost before starting.
A setting planned around your comfort
Walter White and Wilma are our therapy dogs. They’re here because people relax faster when something feels safe. They are available on request; if you would rather not have a dog nearby, tell us so we can plan around it.

Questions before you decide
How to choose a Nashville-area ketamine clinic
Ask who evaluates you and administers treatment, what monitoring and emergency procedures are in place, how recovery and follow-up work, and how the clinic coordinates with your existing providers. Compare total costs, appointment availability, and the evidence for your condition. Look for clear discussion of risks, alternatives, and the possibility of no benefit.
What conditions does MCK evaluate?
MCK evaluates people seeking care for treatment-resistant depression, PTSD, anxiety, and chronic pain. Listing a condition does not establish eligibility or a likely response. Evidence and treatment options differ by condition.
Who administers treatment?
IV ketamine is administered by Marla Peterson, CRNA, with anesthesia-level monitoring. Continuous vital-sign monitoring does not mean the CRNA remains in the room continuously.
What does treatment cost?
Mental wellness infusions are $475 each; six infusions total $2,850. The initial phone consultation is free. The number and timing of treatments depend on clinical assessment and response. A six-infusion total is a cost reference, not a promise of results or a requirement for every patient.
