Catalyst Ketamine

Dr. Michael Ho entered medicine for two reasons: his affinity for science and passion for helping people. After graduating with a B.A in biochemistry at Cornell University, he received his medical degree from Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis. Next he completed a joint pediatric residency at Cincinnati Children's Hospital and Texas Children's Hospital in Houston. Seeking to enhance his skills in crisis management and critical care, Dr. Ho moved to New Haven, CT, where entered an anesthesia residency at Yale University. During his training, he also worked on weekends as a part-time neonatologist at Norwalk Hospital in Connecticut. Since completing his formal medical training, Dr. Ho has lived in Houston, where he has served as a member of the academic faculty in anesthesia at Baylor College of Medicine, University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston, and University of Texas Hermann Memorial Hospital. He is a published author, served on institutional and state medical committees, won Teacher of the Year awards three years in a row, and is the creator and principle instructor of the most popular and effective anesthesia board review course in the country. In his role as oral board instructor, he has dedicated over 10,000 hours helping thousands of anesthesiologist become board-certified perioperative consultants. Over his diverse career, Dr. Ho has garnered over 30 years of experience administering ketamine in almost every medical setting imaginable. He founded Catalyst Ketamine for the same reasons he began his career in medicine: an enduring desire to use science to help those in need. In his spare time, Dr. Ho enjoys spending quality time with his family, watching good movies, reading, and playing chess.
