About Us

Compassionate, medically supervised care in Peachtree City

Ketamine is a well-studied option for depression that hasn’t responded to standard treatments, and for many people it can work more quickly than traditional medications. Breakthrough Therapeutics was created for people who haven’t found adequate relief through standard care and are seeking a safe, medically guided path forward. We provide a supportive space for healing, with care tailored to each person’s needs.

Our mission

Where your healing journey unfolds

We know how exhausting it is to try treatment after treatment and still feel stuck. Our practice exists to offer a different path, one grounded in current evidence, delivered one person at a time, in a calm and supportive setting.

We are an outpatient, sub-anesthetic IV ketamine practice focused on mental health. Everything we do is medically supervised and administered on-site for your comfort and safety.

Physician Assistant

Martha McElroy is a board-certified physician assistant and U.S. Army veteran with more than 15 years of clinical experience. She earned her Master of Medical Science from Mercer University and built her clinical foundation as an emergency medicine physician assistant at Emory Healthcare, where she developed the strong assessment skills, patient-centered approach, and commitment to safety that guide every aspect of care at Breakthrough Therapeutics.

Her military service and clinical experience fostered a deep commitment to helping individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, PTSD, and trauma-related conditions. Combined with advanced post-graduate training in ketamine therapy through the Integrative Psychiatry Institute, that commitment fuels her passion for this work — providing safe, evidence-based care and creating a space for meaningful transformation and healing for those who have not found adequate relief through traditional approaches.

Outside of the practice, Martha has proudly served as a volunteer family medicine provider at Healing Bridge Clinic, a local free medical clinic, since 2019. She is passionate about expanding access to quality mental health care, supporting veterans, and empowering patients through education so they can make informed, confident decisions about their treatment.
