Dr. Joe Pullara
Dr. Pullara was born and raised in Lutz, FL. He completed his undergraduate degree in biological sciences at Florida State University. He then went on to attend medical school in St. Maarten at the American University of the Caribbean.
His clinical studies gave him experience in various healthcare settings across four US states as well as all the way to the United Kingdom. He completed his adult psychiatry residency at the University of Kansas in Kansas City, MO.
During residency, Dr. Pullara helped found a medical journal with his residency colleagues titled “The Journal of Psychedelic Psychiatry (ISSN: 2690-0912).”
Dr. Pullara was appointed deputy editor and still serves in this role while the journal continues to publish articles quarterly.
After residency, Dr. Pullara returned to sunny Florida and passed the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology certification examination to become board-certified. He took a position at Lakeland Regional Hospital as an inpatient psychiatrist, where he later met Dr. Chamakalayil. Together they bonded over a passion for psychedelic psychiatry.

Walk in Their Steps: Could IV Ketamine Therapy Work for You?
"I was hesitant to believe it- believing though, and making the call to set my appointment with Dr. C and Dr. Pullara, was one of the best choices I have ever made. I was treated with care, listened to, and most importantly, understood. But beyond that, the treatment WORKED. My life has changed significantly for the better. I cannot thank the doctors and the team at InnerVision enough. I'd give ten stars if I could!"
"This clinic is fantastic and such a gamechanger. Before meeting Dr. Pullara and Dr. C I had struggled but never felt truly listened to. They seemed to really care about and be invested in my progress. It was so reassuring and definitely made me want to continue to follow up here. Amanda at the front desk is so friendly and always greets you with a smile and the nurses are so nice and professional. Plus the place is beautiful!"
"InnerVision Psychiatry is truly a beacon of hope to anyone suffering with anxiety. Before starting my treatments here I would be constantly anxious and on high alert, I felt like I could never truly relax. With the help of Dr. C and Dr. Pullara as well as the wonderful nurses I can finally do things as simple as enjoy dinner with my family without the constant stress and worry. I cannot thank them enough for giving me my life back."
"Dr. Pullara & Dr. Chamakalayil really know how to connect with their patients and help them best understand what options are available for their needs. They make things simple to understand and all the nerves just wash away.
Overall, this fantastic team really knows how treat their patients and provide a top notch service. Grateful to have a dedicated care team invested in their patient’s wellbeing from start to finish!"
"I have suffered from Depression the majority of my life and InnerVision's Ketamine treatments were really a final hope after many years on anti-depressant medication that just was not working. Dr. Pullara and Dr. C. delivered. Through my search for Ketamine treatments I found most clinics do not even have a Psychiatrist on staff. At InnerVision you have two experienced, kind and compassionate Psychiatrists in a warm and inviting environment."
"They were respectful of my situation and it is evident that they care. After having gone through several sessions at the clinic, I feel... liberated. The staff were professional and friendly, and the clinic itself is such a zen, welcoming space. The treatments have truly been transformational and I have so much hope and optimism about life now. For anyone who can even remotely relate to the darkness that depression leaves you in... don’t wait. Go for it if you can. I am forever grateful"
