How long is the drive from Annapolis to Vita Nova?
Vita Nova is at 513 Bayview Blvd in Canton, Baltimore MD 21224, a few blocks from Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center.

Weekday appointments run 1 PM to 8 PM, so late-afternoon visits can overlap rush hour; leave extra time if you are booking between 4 and 6 PM. Saturday hours are 10 AM to 2 PM, usually the lighter drive. Standard drips take 45–60 minutes and you can drive yourself home afterward.
Can Annapolis patients get an iron infusion at Vita Nova?

Before you book, the team reviews recent labs (ferritin, iron panel and CBC from the last three months) so you know your dose and exact price before you make the drive.

What Annapolis Residents Won't Find Closer to Home
Johns Hopkins Faculty Physician Oversight
Dr. Brijen L. Joshi MD — Assistant Professor of Anesthesiology & Critical Care Medicine at Johns Hopkins, Chief of Thoracic Anesthesia at Johns Hopkins Hospital — is the medical director for every ketamine session. That level of pharmacological expertise is rare in outpatient ketamine care anywhere, including Anne Arundel County.
LegitScript Certification — Fewer Than 15% Qualify
Vita Nova holds LegitScript certification — the independent standard verifying that a ketamine clinic meets legal, regulatory, and compliance requirements. Many clinics operating in the Baltimore–Annapolis corridor do not hold it. The drive is worth the verification.
Transparent Self-Pay Pricing — County-Wide
IV ketamine is off-label and self-pay — $499.99 per session, $375 for Vitality Circle members, the same for Annapolis as for Canton. Some plans offer out-of-network mental health benefits; we provide an itemized superbill, and reimbursement is not guaranteed. HSA and FSA accepted.
Telemedicine Removes the First-Visit Barrier
Your initial ketamine evaluation happens by telemedicine — available to every Maryland resident. Anne Arundel County patients complete the evaluation from Annapolis, Glen Burnie, or Fort Meade in one video visit and drive to Canton only when treatment is scheduled.
Physician-Led Ketamine Therapy — Available to Anne Arundel County
Ketamine IV infusion therapy at Vita Nova is anesthesiologist-led care, under the medical direction of Dr. Brijen Joshi MD — Johns Hopkins Faculty and Board-Certified Anesthesiologist — with continuous monitoring on every infusion. Ketamine works on the NMDA glutamate receptor system, a fundamentally different mechanism from SSRIs and SNRIs, producing measurable clinical responses in treatment-resistant depression, PTSD, chronic pain, and related conditions within hours to days rather than weeks.
A standard induction series consists of six infusions over two to three weeks. Anne Arundel County patients typically schedule twice-weekly sessions on the same drive, often combining a ketamine infusion with a wellness IV or IM shot on the same visit. A clinical evaluation by Vita Nova's clinical team, under the medical direction of Dr. Brijen Joshi MD, precedes every induction — candidacy is determined individually, including when ketamine is not the appropriate choice.
Strongest evidence base. ~50–70% response rate in published RCTs for patients who have failed 2+ antidepressant trials. Some plans offer out-of-network mental health benefits; we provide an itemized superbill, and reimbursement is not guaranteed.
Fear memory reconsolidation disruption through NMDA receptor blockade. Relevant for Fort Meade service members, veterans, first responders, and trauma survivors. Community Heroes discounts available.
Evaluated for GAD, panic disorder, and social anxiety when standard medications have plateaued. NMDA mechanism reduces amygdala hyperreactivity.
Evaluated when ERP and SSRIs at maximal doses have not provided adequate relief. Ketamine disrupts cortico-striato-thalamo-cortical circuit hyperactivity.
Evaluated for the depressive phase of bipolar I and II. Mood stabilizer review and manic switch risk assessment core to evaluation.
Evaluated when first-line treatments have not provided adequate relief. Ketamine's rapid onset is clinically relevant when a mother needs relief urgently.
IV ketamine has shown rapid reductions in suicidal ideation within hours — a meaningful speed advantage over SSRIs in acute presentations. If you are in crisis, call or text 988.
Evaluated for anhedonia and SSRI-induced emotional blunting. Ketamine's NMDA and opioid receptor mechanism addresses hedonic restoration through pathways SSRIs do not engage.
Central sensitization syndrome driven by NMDA receptor hyperactivation — the receptor ketamine blocks directly. Strong evidence base for fibromyalgia unresponsive to standard care.
Diabetic, chemotherapy-induced, post-herpetic, and idiopathic neuropathy. Ketamine interrupts spinal dorsal horn sensitization amplifying neuropathic pain signals.
Evaluated for chronic migraine refractory to CGRP inhibitors, Botox, and standard preventives. NMDA antagonism interrupts central sensitization in the trigeminal system.
CRPS · Sciatica · Back Pain · Arthritis · Pelvic Pain · Inflammatory Pain · Post-Surgical Pain. All driven by central sensitization — the mechanism ketamine addresses directly.
Start With Telemedicine — No Drive Until Treatment Begins
For Anne Arundel County patients, the telemedicine option means you can complete your entire ketamine evaluation from Annapolis, Severna Park, or Odenton — without driving to Canton until you know ketamine is clinically appropriate for your situation.
💻 Telemedicine Evaluation
Our clinical team reviews your history, medications, and prior treatments from home, under the medical direction of Dr. Brijen Joshi MD. No referral required. Available to all Maryland residents.
📋 Clear Pricing Before You Commit
Ketamine is self-pay — $499.99 per session, $375 for members — and you know the cost before committing. We provide an itemized superbill you can submit to your own plan; reimbursement is not guaranteed.
🚗 Drive to Canton — About 23–44 Minutes
Treatment begins at 513 Bayview Blvd. Six infusions over 2–3 weeks. Free parking. Combine with a wellness IV or IM shot on the same visit.
The Complete Wellness Menu — Worth the Drive From Annapolis
Beyond ketamine, Vita Nova offers the most complete IV therapy, IM shot, and IV push menu in the Baltimore metro — all physician-led. Many Anne Arundel County patients schedule a wellness IV on the same visit as a ketamine infusion, or drive up monthly for NAD+, Iron IV, or a Vitality Circle wellness protocol.
💧 IV Therapy — 30–60 min
💉 IM Shots — Under 15 min
⚡ IV Push — 5–10 min
Same-trip wellness. Anne Arundel County patients often pair a ketamine infusion with an IM shot or IV push on the same visit — one drive, two services. Ask when you book.
Ketamine & Wellness Pricing — Same for Annapolis as for Canton
IV ketamine infusion therapy is off-label and self-pay — $499.99 per session, $375 for Vitality Circle members. Some plans offer out-of-network mental health benefits; we provide an itemized superbill, and reimbursement is not guaranteed. Pricing does not vary by county.
The price reflects physician-level, monitored care — every infusion is anesthesiologist-led care, under the medical direction of Dr. Brijen Joshi MD, given in a private treatment room with continuous cardiac and blood-pressure monitoring and dosed individually by weight and response, not a fixed walk-in drip. Buying the Complete Series lowers the effective per-session cost and adds 3 complimentary hydration IVs on top.
