TMS and ECT treatment programs

For patients diagnosed with major depression who seek an alternative to medication, we offer therapeutic treatments called Neurostar Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Therapy and Electroconvulsive Therapy. These treatments, monitored by a team of psychiatrists and psychologists, are safe and effective when completed as prescribed. 

Treatment is tailored to each patient by clinicians and researchers certified in TMS Therapy best practices.
