Sam Mandel’s Personal Journey: From Volunteering on Teen Line to Co-Founding Ketamine Clinics

In this episode of the Label Free Podcast, host Deanna Radulescu interviews Sam Mandel, co-founder and CEO of Ketamine Clinics in Los Angeles. Sam shares his personal journey and passion for mental health advocacy, stemming from his own experiences with friends and family members who have struggled with mental health issues and addiction. He explains that ketamine, an FDA-approved anesthetic, is also an effective treatment for depression, PTSD, anxiety, and chronic pain. Sam emphasizes that ketamine treatment has a success rate of 83% and works much faster than conventional antidepressant medications. He also discusses the misconceptions surrounding ketamine and the challenges of raising awareness due to the lack of pharmaceutical marketing. Sam highlights the holistic approach of ketamine treatment, which promotes healing and enhances brain function without the long-term side effects of traditional medications. He also mentions the clinic's expansion to offer psychiatric med management and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) as additional treatment options. Despite the stigma surrounding mental health, Sam encourages listeners to seek help and reminds them that there is always hope.
