We cannot recommend Dr. Kurz highly enough, especially for complex cases like our nonverbal young adult son who has a history of self-injurious behavior and aggression. His compassionate and expert care quickly led to significant, positive changes in his daily life and behavior, which has been life-changing for us all. We are so incredibly thankful to have found a doctor who truly understands his needs and provides such tremendous help! Thank you!

First, as to Ketamine, it changed by life. It changed living a life of depression and fear to a life that I can enjoy. Second, I switched to Luma Health for ketamine treatment after two years with another medical office. Additionally, I met with many other ketamine providers (both medical offices and those not run by medical doctors) and I chose Luma and Dr. Kurz over the rest as they were clearly above the betters. Outstanding care by their full team. They have several doctors who are highly specialized in this treatment, and nurses who know what the heck they are doing. I feel very safe under their care. Besides being kind, extremely competent, and good at what they do, they are easy to talk to. They answer questions, address concerns, talk to you about the treatment, any changes that need to be done and more. Finally, Luma is full service mental health care. It is not just ketamine. Dr. Kurz is a a Board-Certified Psychiatrist, with a specialty in Psychopharmacology; this is very important. He is able to provide full care, not just ketamine but also the necessary other medicine and coordination with therapy. [He is also a good-guy]. Without any hesitation or reservation I fully recommend Dr. Kurz and Luma Health for Ketamine treatment.

Luma Health and Wellness has completely changed my life. Dr. Kurz is an amazing doctor who truly listens and wants to see you succeed. He’s always open to finding the best treatment and plan options. Not to mention somehow always fits me in. The front desk assistant is so friendly and helpful, and the whole office feels so welcoming. The way the office is decorated is so refreshing, plus the chairs are so comfortable.. really taking the experience to a new level. I can’t recommend Luma enough, this place has changed my life.

I started seeing Dr. Gatto over at Luma Health back in January. I was looking for an ND that could help me maximize my health goals through nutrition and hormone regulation. Dr. Gatto aided in providing comprehensive blood work helping me understand thoroughly where my markers are at and what they mean. She devised a treatment plan that has created stability in my hormone levels and regulated my metabolic functioning which is exactly what I was looking for! She is extremely knowledgeable and caring and I am so grateful to have found her and Luma. Thank you Dr. Gatto!

Luma has been incredible, switching over from another psychiatry firm I couldn't be more pleased. The professionalism and personability from not only the doctors, but the staff is incredible. Quick to respond and efficient is the front desk, as well as empathetic (which can be hard to come by in this field as a patient). I highly recommend to anyone looking to have excellent care from the doctors, and seamless communication from the staff. Thanks Luma!

The therapy rooms had a very calming atmosphere to them and were clean. They provided all the necessary accommodations one would need such as blankets, eye covers, salt lamps, comfortable massage chairs, fans, and beverages. They even provide you with quality headphones and an IPad, giving access to any kind of music or ambient noise that you can think of. The staff were all very friendly, welcoming, and well educated about the therapy process. Overall, I enjoyed the experience and working with those people. Everyone there was very helpful and polite. I would have no objections recommending their office to anybody seeking help through ketamine therapy.

Reid Kessler, Psy.D. 2025.06.26

     

As a psychologist in Encinitas, I’ve been consistently impressed with the quality of care Dr. Kurz provides at his ketamine clinic. He brings the same thoughtfulness, clinical rigor, and warmth to this work as he does to his broader psychiatric practice. I’ve referred several patients to the clinic. The environment is calm, professional, and clearly designed with patient comfort and safety in mind. For clients facing treatment-resistant depression or looking for alternatives to traditional medications, I deeply trust Dr. Kurz and his team to offer care that is both innovative and grounded in clinical expertise.

Professional, calm environment, with sterile, safe practice techniques. Dr Kurz is warm, knowledgeable, and helpful. Ketamine infusions were the only effective treatment for the treatment resistant depression I dealt with for years. Highly recommend this clinic.

Excellent facility and staff. I've been to a few clinics over the years and this one has been my favorite. The ambiance is perfect and the room had a giant picture window with a gorgeous view. Dr. Kurz has a very calming demeanor and is a great practitioner for this type of thing. Would 100% recommend Luma.

Dr. Kurz is kind and understanding. I’ve talked to many psychiatrists and his down to earth demeanor makes me feel comfortable and cared for. He never pushes medications and listens to my concerns. The treatment plan we worked on together helped bring me out of a deep depression. I am finally living again!

I am so fortunate to have found Dr. Kurz. My previous psychiatrist closed their practice suddenly, so I felt… untethered. Not anymore! After struggling with doctors who seemingly couldn’t be bothered or made me feel subhuman, finding someone new was an incredibly daunting task. Never before has a doctor SO quickly been able to find the right medications for me. I feel great since linking up with Dr. Kurz. He makes me feel heard, he makes me feel like my opinion matters, and he is incredibly patient. He seems to always have more than one solution in mind to any given “problem” I may have. This man is excellent. If you’re looking for a new psych who won’t make you feel judged or weird about yourself, and who also just really knows his stuff.. THIS is your guy. I feel so lucky to have found him!! Thank you so much Dr. Kurz!
