TMS Patient Testimonials

Treat the root cause of your depression.

TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation) is an FDA-approved treatment that uses magnetic pulses to stimulate the root cause of depression. It's safe, highly-effective, and covered by insurance. CalTMS is the preeminent TMS provider serving the Southern California community - click below to learn more about the benefits of TMS or to schedule a consultation with one of our psychiatrists.

TMS is covered by insurance

It's not you, it's the brain.

Depression is caused by a lack of sufficient activity in the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, essentially the front left part of your brain.

When this area is working properly, the entire brain lights up, creating an improved mood, working memory, and selective attention.

Highly Effective

About 75% of patients who complete a full course of TMS show a clinically meaningful response and about 50% experience a full remission, meaning their symptoms go away completely.

Fits in Your Schedule

Sessions are about 20 minutes and you can drive to and from your appointments. The full course covered by insurance usually takes about 6-8 weeks to complete.

Covered by Insurance

All major payers cover TMS treatment for Depression. If you've tried multiple antidepressants and therapy, there's a good chance your insurance covers it.

DOUG

CalTMS Patient

"I had a terrific experience being treated for severe depression and high anxiety at CALTMS Eastlake. The staff is nothing short of excellent. They have been caring, considerate, extremely flexible with scheduling conflicts. At CalTMS I felt the patient ALWAYS comes first. I have never had a phone call go unanswered. Through counseling and TMS I have been better able to deal with my personal challenges. I am incredibly happy with the results I'm experiencing now. I owe this clinic and staff my sincerest gratitude."

MICHELLE

CalTMS Patient

"The staff here truly cares about their patients. I have found that my depression is better because of these treatments. (Something I couldn't really say for my antidepressants alone.) I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who is considering TMS treatments for depression. Spencer, the Director, was so helpful throughout the insurance process and because she was so efficient, I was able to start my treatments much sooner than I anticipated. (Which is more than I can say for Greenbrook TMS). They even accommodated my schedule and were there before business hours to do the treatments for me. Katie, the TMS tech was such a pleasure to talk to during my treatments and she was extremely caring and helpful. I am so glad I decided to do this and this place made it incredibly easy for me!"

ANN

CalTMS Patient

"I was hesitant to do TMS in the beginning. Lots of fear. But I am very very grateful that I stepped through that fear and got treatment. The technician who worked with me is Mo. I couldn’t have asked for a more compassionate person to walk through this treatment with. She was always available for questions and her understanding of how TMS worked was so beneficial to me.

The results I got were amazing. I have been able to lower the dose of all my medications, on my way to being off them completely. It’s the first time in a very long time that I have been able to have the world be bright!"
