Patient Reviews
Apr 18, 2025
I’m 74 and protective of my few remaining brain cells and TMS seemed a bit unorthodox. But I’m an old lady and supposed to be a bit quirky. So sitting around with a helmet on was right up my alley. An opportunity to chat with the staff on a daily basis seemed like a bonus. I made a great choice! The treatment has been successful and can now be more optimistic about my remaining years. It’s a commitment to show up daily for all those weeks. But the staff makes it a pleasant experience. Such a nice, caring bunch of ladies! Dr. Kent did a great job of collecting a great team with which to work. Yes you end up with helmet hair! Small price to pay for an improved life. That’s what I have now thanks to the watchful eye of Dr. Kent and TMS. My only regret is that I didn’t do it years earlier.
