Crestline Health & Wellness

In 2019 Dr. Amy van Elkan founded the first ketamine clinic in Mountain Brook, Alabama. Crestline Health and Wellness was developed to help people who are suffering from severe mood disorders and neuropathic pain. During her UAB Anesthesiology residency, Dr. van Elkan began using ketamine for both general anesthesia and sedation cases where she noted significant positive post-surgical patient outcomes. Based on her extensive experience administering ketamine both inpatient and outpatient, clinical research, and her psychology bachelor’s degree she decided to focus her practice exclusively on ketamine infusion therapy. Dr. Amy van Elkan is extending her practice to offer her patients infusions for their unique medical conditions. Since 2001, Dr. Amy has cared for thousands of patients, many of them for over a decade. Her patients tell her she’s compassionate and an expert at getting those difficult IVs working. The practice is extremely proud to provide patients personalized therapy allowing them to recover from severe depression, get back to work, resolve their crippling post-traumatic stress disorder, keep pain at bay, and overall, see some light in the darkness.
