Why Ketamine infusion?
Ketamine infusion treatments block specific receptors in the parts of the brain that processes pain, depression, and anxiety by blocking a receptor system known as the NMDA receptor.
About Kilauea Ketamine Clinic:
Integrative Medicine Care
At Kilauea Ketamine Clinic, every treatment is supervised by our Board Certified Integrative and Holistic Medicine Physician, Dr Christopher Lawinski, MD, ABIHM.
In addition to specializing in ketamine infusion, Dr. Lawinski runs a full scope Integrative and Functional Medicine practice out of the same office.
The result is that every ketamine patient is viewed from the Whole Person perspective and receives a comprehensive consultation and treatment plan from the physician as part of their ketamine treatment. In addition, our physician personally supervises every follow up treatment.
At our clinic, every patient gets:
PRICING
Our pricing reflects our values of providing an affordable alternative medicine solution for our community. As a small private clinic, owned and operated by the staff, we are able to keep our overhead low and are therefore able to offer our treatments for the following prices at this time:
Initial Ketamine Infusion: $450
Subsequent Ketamine Infusion: $350
Other clinics who offer ketamine, that typically function as large corporate entities with high overhead for advertising and expansion, typically charge much more for treatments.
What else makes Kilauea Ketamine Clinic different?
At other ketamine clinics, you may not see an actual physician and your care may not be directly supervised by a physician. At the Kilauea Ketamine Clinic, every patient sees a physician directly, and our physician personally supervises every follow up treatment.
In other clinics, your nurse may not stay with you, or you may receive the treatment in a large common area. In our clinic, we take pride in the cultivation of our set and setting. To this end, you will receive your treatment in a private room and your infusion nurse will provide one on one attendance for the duration of your treatment.
We believe that ketamine is a tool that should be used in a comprehensive plan of care. For anyone struggling with mental health issues, we believe that working with a competent and licensed mental health professional who has experience in ketamine assisted therapy is essential. All eligible patients treated at Kilauea Ketamine Clinic are offered a referral to our network of licensed mental health providers who work in collaboration with our clinic.
During the initial consultation with the physician, every patient is viewed Holistically, and is offered a comprehensive treatment plan as a part of their ketamine experience.

Exceeded all expectations…
I made my first appointments with Dr. Lawinski, because going to LA for ketamine treatments was so difficult due to covid. It was also exhausting due to a long flight from Honolulu. There were docs in Honolulu who provided treatments, but it was obvious that their only incentive was $$$. The charge at Queens Hospital was the highest in the entire country!! 1200. dollars per treatment. In Dr. Lawinski and his staff, I found a team committed to helping patients like myself, with severe clinical depression, ( as well as PTSD, ETC.), return to wellness. They also had a real understanding of the medication, as well as knowing that every patient responded differently. This was not a “cookie cutter” approach, like at many ketamine clinics. I have had 6 treatments to date and am no longer plagued by suicidal ideation. It is wonderful to be able to sleep again, and resume activities I once enjoyed. I am ready to return to his office again, the moment I notice a change in my mood.

I had beautiful visions and felt so peaceful during my experiences. They were some of the best sessions I have had with Ketamine and on the last one I went very deep and was able to work through some things that have really been bothering me. The integration sessions afterwards were amazing and so helpful.
