About The Practice
MindPeace Clinics offer highly specialized ketamine infusion therapy, an advanced treatment that effectively and often quickly relieves the symptoms of many mental health and chronic pain syndromes.
The team at MindPeace Clinics, led by esteemed ketamine infusion specialist Patrick Oliver, MD, welcomes patients at their offices in Richmond, Arlington, and Norfolk, Virginia. They’re well known as the most experienced ketamine providers in Virginia, and they have an exceptional overall success rate of 75% for all the conditions they treat.
During ketamine infusion therapy, patients receive a low dose infused slowly over the course of one to four hours. As ketamine reaches the brain, it balances brain chemicals and interacts with pain pathways, giving patients rapid relief from their symptoms.
Patients with mental health conditions such as anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, suicidal thoughts, and post-traumatic stress disorder can experience a significant improvement in their symptoms.
Chronic pain syndromes such as fibromyalgia and complex regional pain syndrome respond well to ketamine infusion therapy, often giving patients their first substantial pain relief in years.
Ketamine infusion therapy is one of the best treatment options for patients whose underlying mental or physical condition didn’t respond to conventional medications. One of the most common problems, treatment-resistant depression, can quickly improve with ketamine infusion therapy.
MindPeace Clinics are also certified SPRAVATO® treatment centers. Spravato is a nasal spray containing esketamine, a variant of ketamine, that’s FDA-approved for treatment-resistant depression.

Ketamine was once used mainly as an anesthetic on battlefields and in operating rooms. Now this medication is gaining ground as a promising treatment for some cases of major depression, which is the leading cause of disability worldwide.
On a cool Santa Cruz evening four months ago, therapist Dick Schwartz found himself crouched on a yoga mat in a friend’s living room, about to do something crazy. At least, that’s what some of his more buttoned-up colleagues might’ve thought.
"I have been getting Ketamine infusions for three years and I can attest to you that Dr. Oliver and his staff are outstanding."
"I will forever be grateful to Dr. Oliver and his team and I will advise anyone who will listen to go see Dr. Oliver and at least talk to him about options."
If you suffer from mood disorders and are looking for a new approach to take control of your symptoms, I urge you to give MindPeace a shot."
