What Our Patients Say

Real experiences from patients who trust us with their care.

Featured Patient Story

John, combat veteran: IV ketamine at Viking

John served three combat tours. His last deployment ended in 2011, and in his words, he struggled in silence for years afterward. In June 2026, his VA care team suggested IV ketamine, and that brought him to Viking Psychiatry & Wellness.

In this video, John describes in his own words what the last few months have been like: the infusions, the environment he found here, and what his wife and parents have noticed. We are grateful to John for his service, for trusting us with his care, and for being willing to say this out loud so another veteran might hear it.

This video describes John’s own experience and was shared voluntarily. Ketamine therapy is not right for everyone, and no one is promised a particular outcome; whether it is an appropriate option is determined through a clinical evaluation. IV ketamine for depression is an off-label use. Veterans: ask your VA care team about community care, or call (260) 459-9225 and we will help you find out whether it applies to your situation. If you or someone you love is in crisis, call or text 988 (veterans, press 1).

Kelly: ExoMind at Viking

After a frightening season when her daughter was in the hospital for seven weeks, Kelly was left exhausted, foggy, and depressed. She did not want to add more medications, so she and Sean decided to try ExoMind.

In this video, Kelly describes in her own words what the sessions felt like and what she noticed over the following three months. We are grateful to Kelly for being willing to share her story so that someone else might find help.

This video describes Kelly’s own experience and was shared voluntarily. ExoMind is not right for everyone, and no one is promised a particular outcome; whether it is an appropriate option is determined through a clinical evaluation. To ask whether ExoMind may fit your situation, call (260) 459-9225.
