Dr. Irfan Handoo - TMS & Ketamine — Ketamine Clinic in Overland Park, KS

Dr.Handoo is so nice and thorough. I feel like he really cares about his patients and listens to our needs. 10 out of 10, would recommend.

I am currently midway through dTMS treatment with Dr. Handoo. The care from the doctor and the coordinators, Katley Lopez and Stephany Graham, has been exceptional—it’s truly difficult to imagine a better experience. The office is streamlined, clean, and very comfortable. Patient intake and insurance authorizations were timely. Looking forward and hoping for positive personal results in the coming weeks to months.

**UPDATE** - a little lengthy, but I promise it's worth it, and I promise that Dr. Handoo is worth it! Can I give Dr. Handoo more than 5 stars? He definitely deserves them! I'm still so grateful to have found him. He has changed facilities since we first met, and is now at Interpersonal Psychiatry. Oh my word - the customer service is night and day different from the prior facility. Lauren and Jessica are amazing to work with regarding scheduling, paperwork, payments, you name it! Their communication is so much more effective than what I've experienced in the past. Seriously, so easy and pain free. And they treat you with dignity and respect, unlike my past experiences (which shouldn't be something anyone seeking help should be subjected to!) I still love Dr. Handoo and am so impressed by his wealth of knowledge. This review specifically is about a month after my 6 week treatment of IV Ketamine. I've been suffering from major depressive disorder for 18+ years (officially diagnosed, likely longer).  It's always been the same song and dance... Start a medication, feel a tiny bit better, then it stops working, so increase the dosage to the max for my size, until that stops working, then switch medications, deal with the withdrawals, and hope something will finally work.  The suicidal thoughts were always there, but I knew my life would be in jeopardy if I were to wean off completely.  I felt hopeless.  After a trip to the hospital, I found Dr. Handoo on my insurance website and noticed he specialized in Ketamine, which reminded me of what I had read years prior about the effectiveness of Ketamine for treatment-resistant depression.  I knew it was Ketamine or TMS, and I was not quite ready to go down the TMS road. Ketamine seemed much less scary for me personally. I cannot even express the amount of gratitude I have for Dr. Handoo and this life-saving treatment.  I started with a PHQ-9 of 18, after 4 weeks of treatment my score was a 2, and maintained that for the last two weeks of treatment.  My last treatment was almost a month ago to the date, and now my score is a 0. I felt so hopeful throughout the treatments, and my experiences during each treatment was so joyous.  What I've experienced from these treatments has changed my entire outlook and viewpoint on life.  I see things from a different perspective.  It's almost as if I've been walking around underneath a hard shell for the majority of my life, and finally the shell has cracked and fallen away, and there is a new person here instead. I cannot believe how effective this was, or how much it has changed my life.  I actually feel normal!  I have healthy sleep habits and more energy, I enjoy doing things to socialize instead of avoiding or canceling at the last minute, my relationships with my partner, friends, and family have changed drastically.  I could probably write a novel but I will say this, I wish I had this treatment available or knew about it before I did.  I am loving my life and I see how much good there is in life. Dr. Handoo is amazing and nurse Zach is wonderful as well. He will take the best care of you during your treatment! I definitely miss my treatment days, and I miss seeing everyone! Love them all so much and so grateful they saved my life.

Clean office, helpful staff, and a caring doctor.

Dr. Handoo is an exceptional psychiatrist who truly stands out, especially when it comes to ketamine treatments. He takes the time to thoroughly explain everything and creates a comfortable, trusting environment. Without a doubt, he's the best in his practice. I couldn’t recommend him more & the Handoo Method*

Dr. Handoo is very professional and does a great job making you feel comfortable with the treatment!

Great experience and extremely supportive and enthusiastic staff. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to do ketamine therapy! - Mandy Loesch

First off, I want to say this entire team at Overland Park is phenomenal! Every experience I’ve had receiving TMS has gone so well, due to the treatment itself and the staff! It has completely transformed my life and quality of mental health. They have gotten me on the right meds as well, I can truly say I’m so much happier than I’ve been in decades. I’m beyond thankful for all of them. They also are angels for helping to work with those that cannot afford such pricey treatments to still receive services-which truly was a miracle for me. I have the utmost respect and gratitude for this team & all the services provided. They are amazing wonderful people; I’ve yet to meet a single person who’s been anything but kind! On a separate (vital) note, I must leave a GLOWING review for Stef who facilitates the TMS treatments. She makes a massive difference from start to finish. She played a huge role in aiding my recovery! Her loving, cheerful, and kind demeanor is unbelievably refreshing and helpful when you are going through a difficult time. I really don't know if I would have been as successful if she hadn't been there. She creates such a comfortable environment and helps the time pass so quickly! She also makes it very encouraging to return every day for appts, which is half the battle when you’re feeling down (just getting yourself out of bed). Stef’s beautiful energy, warmth and compassion give you a reason and the motivation to want to show up every day- which is critical to receive the treatments so effective for your mental health!  She is such an amazing part of their team! A keeper for sure😊💜!! A million thank yous to Stef, Dr. Handoo, and the rest of the staff for always being so kind, helpful, and welcoming!

11/2025 UPDATE: I still stand 💯 % behind Deep TMS Treatment for Major Depression! My first Treatment brought me out of a DEEP Dark Horrible ENDLESS SPIRAL of DARKNESS & HOPELESSNESS! During the interval of 1st treatments and this 2nd session, I have had several horrible life events happen. My spouse decided to leave after 25yrs together with no explanation ( just packed in the middle of the night and left his wedding band) ; that was April & I still have no reasons except to be served Divorce papers when he promised to wait, to at least see if we could figure things out, my youngest moved across the country, my oldest is siding with Dad and won't speak to me, husband lied about many many issues and allowed my car to be repossessed ( even tho I'm not working and waiting on Disability, and he'd promise to still pay ALL the reg bills) At this point I could feel myself sliding... I was still 10x better than I had been in 15-20yrs but sliding to Depressive States more and more... so I called. Thank God I did cause even more went to HELL IN A HANDBASKET. I truly think if I didn't start again... Id either be long term hospitalized or dead. But since starting again even with the following hitting me in the face... I'm still seeing more light than dark... My Furnace died, I was sent Irs letters yesterday stating pay 2 yrs of back taxes or they will SIEZE ALL PERSONAL PROPERTY ( My house, my new car my son consigned for and is paying, garnishment of any/all incomes, ect) and soon to be ex just ignores me even tho its a married joint return. THANK YOU, Dr. Handoo & Staff I don't know what I'd do without you! 1st Treatment round...I was at my wits end... I went to my regular psychiatrist who has been treating me for years and told him "I'm done I can't do this anymore! All these pills and NOTHING IS WORKING! Just go ahead and set me up to ELECTROCUTE MY BRAIN.. if I loose memories then I loose memories. Maybe they'll be the ones that haunt me most. AFTER, he calmed me down he stated that he didn't think that would be the best treatment for me. He referred me to Dr. Handoo. I was lucky to be able to get a telehealth apt within days and a treatment date set very Quickly. Deep TMS is WORKING! I feel sad from time to time but im not suicidal, or rotting in bed, or not eating like before. I feel like the person I should be... even tho its been so long since I've felt that way I'm still not quite sure how The I fits in my self anymore. But that's what talk therapy is for...and I'll figure it out. 13 sessions to go.... I'm excited... I haven't been excited about anything in SO VERY LONG! I'm so great full to Dr Handoo and his staff and all the great care they have given me. They have gone above and beyond in taking care of me, ensuring I get the care i need.

Dr handoos help has been life-changing I appreciate everything he's done.thank you so much
