This page is about receiving that care here in Rockville.

Where you receive Spravato in Rockville

Our Rockville office is at 6000 Executive Blvd, Suite 101, Rockville, MD 20852. Spravato is administered in a dedicated monitoring space by REMS-certified staff, a federal requirement for every clinic that offers it. The office is easy to reach by car from I-270, the Beltway (I-495), and the Rockville Metro station on the Red Line, and parking is available on site. We serve patients across Rockville, Bethesda, and the wider Montgomery County area.

What to expect at your Rockville appointment

Each visit is straightforward. Our staff administers the nasal spray, which takes about five minutes. You then stay in our office for a two hour monitoring period while the medication takes effect. Because you cannot drive afterward, you arrange for someone to take you home. Most patients return to their normal routine the next day. For a fuller walk through of the session itself, see what Spravato treatment feels like on our main Spravato page.

Insurance and Maryland Medicaid for Spravato in Rockville

Spravato is covered by most major insurance plans, and we accept Medicare and Maryland Medicaid. Coverage for treatment-resistant depression usually requires meeting clinical criteria, and our team handles the prior authorization and documentation for you. We verify your specific plan before your first session so you know what to expect. If cost is a concern, we talk it through openly rather than leaving you to guess.

Who Spravato in Rockville is for

Spravato is FDA approved for adults with treatment-resistant depression and for adults with major depressive disorder who are experiencing suicidal thoughts. It is taken alongside an oral antidepressant, not in place of one. We care for adults only. If you have tried two or more antidepressants without adequate relief, you may be a candidate. To understand how Spravato differs from intramuscular and IV ketamine, our Spravato and ketamine comparison lays it out in detail.
