Addiction recovery is not a straight line–and for many, traditional approaches like therapy and rehab aren’t enough to break the cycle. At Urgent Care Plus & Wellness, we offer an advanced option: Ketamine Infusion Therapy supervised by a board-certified physician with deep experience in substance-related health care.
Whether you’re in early sobriety or have experienced multiple relapses, ketamine may help reduce cravings, quiet emotional distress, and restore clarity–so you can build lasting change.
I am giving 5 stars because Dr Luke and his team were so professional and caring. I loved the ambience of the clinic, and there was no wait time. Dr. Luke took his time to Iisten to our complaints and concerns. Big thanks to the team at Urgent Care Plus and Wellness.

Rewiring the Brain to Support Recovery
Substance use disorders alter your brain’s chemistry and reward system. Ketamine works by targeting the glutamate system, helping to reset neural circuits that drive compulsive behavior and emotional pain.
It also increases neuroplasticity, the brain’s ability to rewire and create new patterns–critical for healing from long-term use and trauma.
Benefits of Ketamine for Addiction May Include:
- Fewer cravings and obsessive thoughts
- Reduced anxiety, depression, and emotional triggers
- Renewed mental clarity and motivation
- Greater responsiveness to counseling and support groups
- Decreased risk of early relapse
Recent studies have shown promising results for ketamine’s role in treating alcohol use disorder, opioid dependence, and stimulant addiction–especially when paired with behavioral therapy.
How It Works at Our Clinic
Every patient starts with a private consultation with Dr. Luke Afuwape, our board-certified Emergency Medicine physician. We’ll review your health history, addiction treatment background, and current needs before designing a custom infusion protocol.
Infusions take place in a quiet, medically monitored room, lasting 40-60 minutes. Most patients receive a short series of treatments over 2-3 weeks, with follow-up as needed. Ketamine is never used as a standalone cure–it’s part of a holistic, team-based recovery strategy.

Expert Care Without Judgment
Unlike high-volume ketamine spas or self-administered clinics, Urgent Care Plus & Wellness provides medical-grade infusions in a licensed facility under direct physician supervision. Dr. Luke brings more than 15 years of experience treating both physical and behavioral health emergencies – ensuring you’re in skilled, compassionate hands.

- One-on-one oversight from a board-certified physician
- Safe, discreet care for people in all stages of recovery
- Flexible scheduling and quick access to treatment
- Trusted referrals and follow-up coordination
- Judgment-free, patient-first environment
