What are these Other FDA cleared Treatments?
TMS = Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation
TMS, Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, is an exciting treatment for Major Depressive Disorder, that was approved by the FDA in 2008; it is also approved for the treatment of OCD and smoking cessation. TMS requires no medicine or anesthesia and patients can be treated for Monday through Friday for 4-9+ weeks or alternatively can receive treatments clumped together over a shorter time frame.
In April 2023, we became a division of NeuroScience & TMS Treatment Center, and as such, offer in-network services for TMS, Spravato and other new, exciting evidence-based service like VNS; soon we will also offer Ketamine soon in our clinics.
We have many in-network, skilled psychiatrists who can consult, evaluate, diagnosis and treat you with the most advanced evidenced-based care that is available.
Esketamine and Ketamine
Esketamine (Spravato) is a treatment which helps fight depression. It is for 1) adults with MDD
with suicidal thoughts or actions; and 2) for Adults with Treatment Resistant Depression with and without Antidepressant medications. It has been studied in many other areas and is "off-label" (not approved by FDA). This treatment is offered if appropriate via a consultation with a physician.
VNS - Vagus Nerve Stimulation
VNS is also effective treatment which can help fight depression and is particularly helpful if a patient is treatment resistant. This treatment has been FDA cleared for the treatment of epilepsy for several decades and for Treatment Resistant Depression since the mid -2000's. It has been studied in many other areas. We participated in a clinical trial for patients who have Bipolar Depression.
