Orange County market saturation
Call volume from OC has dropped significantly. 5+ established clinics in the Irvine/Newport/Yorba Linda corridor.

Chino Hills penetration gap — underserved anomaly
Chino Hills/Diamond Bar has zero ketamine providers despite $108K median household income and strong Dx rates.

Kaiser patient questionnaire completions are a warm pipeline
Kaiser members completing depression/anxiety questionnaires represent a warm referral channel.
