MEET DR. IRONS
Dr. Harrison Irons, M.D.
Dr. Irons is a double board-certified anesthesiologist and pain management physician. Working as a pain physician, he has experienced the difficulties that can come with treating chronic pain with a limited toolbox.
However, he has also seen firsthand the positive response that many patients with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome and Complex Migraines are having with low dose ketamine infusions. As an anesthesiologist, he is well-versed in the anesthetic properties of ketamine but has also learned further about the treatment for mental health issues as well.
Working at the VA hospital caring for veterans in the surgical ICU and operating room, only increased his interest in ketamine infusions for treating those with depression, anxiety, and PTSD. He is most excited for the potential of Southern Ketamine & Wellness to provide patients with the relief they’ve been seeking and deserve to experience.

Seeing the usefulness of ketamine for patients undergoing anesthesia has increased his interest in ketamine infusions and the positive outcomes that it can provide to certain patient populations.
