Psychedelic medicine in France
Hospital-route model
Access runs through hospitals here. In this country, access runs through hospital psychiatric services. There is no meaningful private market for these treatments — the referral pathway matters more than any single listing.
The access pathway in France
- Start with your GP or treating psychiatrist and ask about esketamine / psychedelic-assisted treatment programs.
- You will typically be referred to a hospital psychiatric department that operates the program.
- The hospital team performs the eligibility check (diagnosis, treatment history, contraindications).
- Waiting times vary; ask about clinical trial participation as an alternative route.
Known programs and sites
Listings are secondary in hospital-route countries — treat them as starting points for a referral conversation, not as bookable clinics.
