HealingMaps Take: North Idaho Ketamine and TMS is the anchor ketamine provider in the Coeur d’Alene region, and the CTK protocol sets it apart from virtually every other clinic in the state. CTK — Combined TMS plus Ketamine — is a dual-modality approach that administers transcranial magnetic stimulation and ketamine together, aiming to leverage the synergistic neuroplasticity effects of both treatments simultaneously. Led by Dr. John M. Thurston, who is board-certified in both psychiatry and neurology, the practice brings a level of physician oversight and neurological expertise that standalone infusion clinics cannot match. The dual board certification is significant: Dr. Thurston understands both the psychiatric indications for ketamine and the neurological mechanisms underlying its effects. Located at 250 Northwest Blvd in downtown Coeur d’Alene, the clinic serves the entire North Idaho corridor from Sandpoint to Moscow, as well as patients crossing over from Spokane, Washington.
Patient Review
“The CTK protocol at North Idaho Ketamine was a game-changer for my mental health. Dr. Thurston explained the science behind combining TMS and ketamine, and the results exceeded my expectations. The downtown Coeur d’Alene location made it convenient and the staff was exceptional.”

What People Like
The CTK (Combined TMS + Ketamine) protocol is a unique dual-modality treatment rarely available elsewhere. Dr. Thurston’s dual board certification in psychiatry and neurology provides the highest level of clinical oversight. Downtown Coeur d’Alene location is accessible from across North Idaho and Spokane, WA. Both standalone IV ketamine and TMS are available for patients who prefer single-modality treatment. The practice treats chronic pain and substance use alongside mood disorders.
What People Don’t Like
Spravato is not listed as a treatment option. KAP is not offered — the approach is medical rather than psychotherapeutic. Specific pricing is not published online. The CTK protocol, while innovative, has limited published research compared to standalone treatments. The Coeur d’Alene location is remote for patients in southern Idaho.
