Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is an out-patient, non-invasive procedure to treat Major Depression as well as other diseases like Parkinson's and Dementia. TMS emits electromagnetic pulses into an individually focalized area of the brain believed to control mood. By completing the 4-6 week TMS treatment course, patients should experience a significant decrease of symptoms if not complete remission.
TMS has been offered by Dr. Edward Fruitman, MD, a nationally recognized expert in psychopharmacology as well as a Board Certified Psychiatrist, for the past year at South Shore Neuropsychiatric Center in Hewlett, NY. With Dr. Fruitman's comprehensive approach and medication management our practice has had a nearly 100% success rate among patients who have completed TMS treatment, significantly above the national average.
TMS has become a popular treatment option for people suffering with Major Depression among mental health practices across the country because it is non-invasive and has essentially no side-effects. As a result, TMS has become increasingly mentioned within the media. Below are two video clips links offering further details on the benefits of TMS as well as first-hand accounts of successful treatments. If you are an individual who has had little to no success in controlling your condition with medication do not hesitate to call South Shore Neuropsychiatric Center to discuss the possibilities of TMS with one of our TMS Specialists or to schedule a consultation with Dr. Fruitman. Our serene environment along with Dr. Fruitman's innovative approach to treatment ensures a positive experience for all of our patients.
