“Nushama treatment has been an awakening for me to treat my PTSD. Their therapy opened my heart to what I knew I was feeling inside but never vocalized aloud. I felt released and free of all that was hindering me. I am able to let go of past regressions and start living a fuller life.”

“I wish there would be an awareness for all veterans leaving combat about what this is and how it helps. A lot of guys don’t realize they have a problem until years later—some lost their homes, families, and became alcoholics. I would recommend this to everybody who has been through trauma. It’s been amazing.”
KeithNushama Member
“After a month of ketamine treatments, I made more progress than in the past decade. It helped me remove some of my blocks and allowed me to start caring for myself again. I was able to process emotions and thoughts I have been repressing. Light is now shining into the abyss and I can finally start living again.”

Dr. Steven Radowitz, MD

Steven Radowitz, MD

Chief Medical Officer

Dr. Radowitz has a wealth of experience seeing the effects trauma can have on our physical health firsthand. He joined Nushama to oversee and develop treatment modalities, believing psychedelics are the future of mental wellness as current solutions treat symptoms, not underlying issues.

Dr. Radowitz also runs the primary care program at Goldman Sachs and has practiced internal medicine and primary care since 1998. Originally from Montreal, he completed his M.D. at Chicago Medical School. He worked at St. Vincent’s in general medicine and HIV/AIDS units and was Medical Director of the inpatient alcohol and opiate detox and treatment unit.

Dr. Radowitz’s focus is preventive medicine, getting to the underlying source before it manifests as “dis-ease,” a misalignment of mind, body, and spirit. He believes psychedelics are a powerful tool to discover the origin of imbalance. On a spiritual journey with Kabbalah, he also studies meditation and yoga. At Nushama, he leads one of the most experienced teams in psychedelic medicine.
