Patient Stories
Cindy was, in her stepmother’s words, “a really sharp lady”, someone who was always calm and having it all together. That all changed when the depression hit. After 2½ years, the antidepressants quit working, “cold turkey.” A new treatment option was needed for Cindy. Her doctor suggested TMS. Within 2 weeks, the first small signs of improvement appeared. But that was just the beginning.
Complications following major surgery caused Charlie to become severely depressed. She tried “every medicine that there was which gave me major complications I just didn’t want to do anything and I stopped working” Charlie then tried MagVenture TMS Therapy, which, in her own words has “…given me back my life”.
Patient Testimonials
“My name is Saul. I was skeptical about TMS therapy. I have lived in depression a long time. I am fifty one, and I am on my fourteenth treatment. I see a lot of progress in myself. To someone normal, it may not seem like much, but since starting TMS, I don’t procrastinate as much, I don’t plug into negative emotions as much, I think clearer, I’m more honest with myself, I see a faint light at the end of the tunnel now, I smile more, and I’m hopeful about getting better. All of these things have eluded me for a long time. I’m not saying this to promote TMS, but I say this to give hope to the hopeless. Trust in the process, and see it to the end. Live free of the ghosts of yesterday, be kind to yourself, and give this a chance.”

“I have dealt with depression for over 50 years. I am 64 years old. I was bulimic for 14 years. No one knew of my mental health issues. I hid them well. I tried to make myself happy by doing things. I ran marathons and worked multiple jobs at one time while raising children. I tried many antidepressants, but I suffered with severe side effects. I told my story over and over again to many therapists to the point of being totally sick of hearing it. TMS has finally given me relief. I feel very happy and content. I now wake up thinking, “what can I do today?” Before, I would wake up thinking, “what do I have to do today?” The change seems simple, but it is actually very profound. Please be open-minded. TMS has changed my whole view on life.”

“TMS has helped with my mood, depression, and anxiety. I have IBS and food sensitivity, and it helped the bad times not last as long. The TMS has helped with my nervous stomach. I was experiencing PTSD from these issues, and those feelings happen a lot less.”

"I have attended TMS sessions .it seemed, to me, that this (TMS) was the answer to helping me improve my mental mood and my daily living, because it is a physical process, instead of just taking pills.There is light at the end of the tunnel!"

"I was having a hard time with anxiety and depression. I tried a few things but nothing seemed to really work. I heard about TMS. I didn’t believe it but I was feeling pretty lost. I figured what the heck. I think it was about two weeks and I started sleeping and actually eating food that wasn’t out of a vending machine. I just finished my treatment and my friends are telling me I’m so much happier. I didn’t realize it but I had become so negative. I’m now positive. I’m dating and I actually like getting dressed up again. The people at Dr Gowda’s office were nice. The treatments were quick. I’m thankful for Dr Gowda, his staff and TMS. Once the gym opens, I’ll be even happier. TMS really helped me. I would definitely recommend it."

Thank you so much Dr. Gowda and staff!!
“Hi, my name is David, and if you are suffering with severe depression, I ask that you read my entire story. I have suffered from severe depression for most of my life. I am 46 years old and have been suffering for years now. Like most, life has not always been easy for me. Within a 7 year period I had to deal with having cancer (cancer free now), losing the love of my life, I was stabbed in the back and let go from my dream job where I had a very high ranking position, I lost my Mother, and have been stuck in a job that has gone no where with much lower pay for years now. “
Like I said, life has been rough. On top of what was happening on the outside, the inner me wasn’t dealing very well either and after being so depressed for so long I found myself becoming suicidal. In 2018 I started seeing a therapist that taught me so much. I followed all of his suggestions and even after working on myself nothing got rid of the underlying negativity that was responsible for my anxiety and my panic attacks as well as my growing depression. I used to walk around with my entire body clenched from the moment I woke up til my head hit the pillow at night. I wanted to get better but therapy was not enough. I had tried several prescriptions from Dr.s but none seemed to offer me real relief, or if a medication did help, it didn’t work for long. ”
