About Us
The How Clinic in Encinitas, California, offers comprehensive care to patients suffering from a broad range of physical and mental conditions. Anyone who sustains an injury or struggles with chronic pain, depression, or anxiety, finds a compassionate practice with a welcoming environment that has practitioners who dedicate themselves to restoring physical and mental health.
John How, MD, a board-certified emergency room physician with years of diagnosing and treating the diverse illnesses, injuries, and conditions of patients in the ER, opened The How Clinic intending to understand each person’s concerns and utilize his passion for providing cutting-edge treatments.
The How Clinic specializes in using musculoskeletal ultrasound to accurately diagnose the cause of symptoms such as joint pain, chronic pain, and limited movement. The practitioners often treat conditions such as rotator cuff tears, pinched nerves, and knee injuries, along with the full scope of musculoskeletal problems.
As part of its dedication to offering today’s most advanced care, The How Clinic provides bioidentical hormone replacement therapy using BioTE® pellets, regenerative medicine options such as platelet-rich plasma and prolotherapy, and interventional options, including stellate ganglion blocks.
Patients dealing with anxiety, PTSD, and depression, especially treatment-resistant depression, may receive one of today’s most advanced therapies, ketamine infusion. For most patients, ketamine provides quick relief, even when traditional medication fails to help.
At The How Clinic, every patient receives care that combines the latest treatments and technology with individualized attention and a caring, human touch. To learn more about the available services, or to schedule an appointment, call the office or use the online booking feature.
