Greg Wright, CRNA, Owner and Board-Certified Nurse Anesthesiologist at SoCal Infusion and Principal Owner and Manager at Foothill Anesthesia Inc., has been recognized by Marquis Who’s Who Top Healthcare Professionals for dedication, achievements and leadership in Healthcare.
With a distinguished career spanning more than three decades, Mr. Wright has established himself as an expert in his field, with a specialization in anesthesiology. His journey in healthcare began with inspiration from his mother’s own work in the medical field, which set him on a path to serve others as a nursing professional.
Since 2019, Mr. Wright has served as the owner and board-certified nurse anesthesiologist at SoCal Infusion in Pasadena, California. In this role, he has focused on providing ketamine infusion therapy for individuals facing mental health challenges and chronic pain. Drawing on over 30 years of experience as a nurse anesthesiologist and his deep familiarity with ketamine as an anesthetic agent, he has developed a practice that offers hope to patients who have not found relief through traditional medications for anxiety and depression. Mr. Wright’s approach includes an initial series of six infusions followed by maintenance treatments as needed. Approximately 75-80% of his patients experience some degree of symptom relief. Referrals come from therapists, psychiatrists, primary care providers and pain management professionals throughout the region.
What distinguishes Mr. Wright in his profession is his hands-on approach to patient care. He is directly involved in every aspect of his practice, ensuring a personal connection with each individual he treats. The intimate setting of his clinic allows him to address patient fears and anxieties before procedures, a quality he considers among his most significant achievements. This commitment to meaningful interaction has been central to Mr. Wright’s legacy and professional pride.
Before founding SoCal Infusion, Mr. Wright held concurrent roles at Foothill Anesthesia Inc., beginning in 2003. As both the principal owner and manager in the Los Angeles metropolitan area of California and the principal owner in Pasadena, he provides anesthesia services in various outpatient settings alongside other physicians. During the COVID-19 pandemic, when many medical services were suspended, Mr. Wright adapted by transitioning away from hospital-based work to focus on outpatient care and innovative therapies.
Mr. Wright’s academic foundation includes a Bachelor of Science in nursing from a liberal arts college in Northern California and a Master of Science in nursing with a specialization in nurse anesthesiology from California State University, Long Beach. These educational achievements provided the clinical knowledge and critical thinking skills that underpin his success as an independent practitioner and business owner. Additionally, Mr. Wright has been a certified registered nurse anesthetist through the American Association of Nurse Anesthesiology since 1993, where he is also a prominent member, and he completed the DEA MATE Act requirement in 2025, which is training on opioid and substance use disorder management.
Mr. Wright credits much of his professional growth to hard work and perseverance. His expertise and leadership have been recognized with distinctions, such as Outstanding Nurse Anesthesiologist of the Class and a feature in Voyage LA’s “Hidden Gems: Meet Greg Wright of Southern California Infusion Therapy.” These milestones reflect both peer acknowledgment and public recognition of his impact on the field.
Looking ahead, Mr. Wright aims to further develop his business by enhancing networking opportunities within the community and expanding support for those seeking alternative solutions for mental health care. He is also committed to innovation within healthcare by championing ketamine therapy as an emerging treatment option now gaining broader acceptance in mainstream medicine. Above all else, Mr. Wright remains passionate about providing exceptional care to his patients.
