How Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) Treatment Works

TMS therapy is a highly recommended option for managing depression, anxious depression, and OCD, with its effectiveness, safety, and convenience being key reasons for its growing popularity. Using magnetic fields, it targets specific brain regions regulating mood and emotions. Studies have consistently shown its high success rate in reducing symptoms of such disorders. Unlike traditional, chemical-based medications, TMS therapy has minimal side effects, making it a reliable alternative.

How To Get Started With NeuroStar's Advanced TMS Treatment

Newport Psychiatry & TMS Treatment Center is a psychiatric office that offers outpatient TMS treatment for mental health conditions. Treatment lasts a few weeks after insurance approval, with regular non-invasive sessions at the office. Duration varies based on individual needs and response to treatment. It goes as follows: 

Step 1: Initial Evaluation

At start we begin by evaluating the patient's needs and develop a personalized treatment plan. This will involve gathering information about the patient's medical history, symptoms, and previous treatments while conducting a psychological evaluation.

Step 2: Insurance Authorization

Before beginning TMS treatment, it is important to determine if the patient's insurance will cover the cost of the procedure. The mental health professional will work with the patient to obtain the necessary authorization and ensure that all insurance requirements are met.

Step 3: Brain Mapping

Brain mapping is a crucial step in the TMS treatment process, as it helps to determine the specific areas of the brain that need to be targeted for optimal results. This step involves using non-invasive imaging techniques to map the patient's brain and determine the best location for the TMS coils.

Step 4: TMS Treatment Sessions

The final step is to implement the TMS treatment. During each session, the patient will sit comfortably while a TMS machine delivers brief magnetic pulses to the targeted areas of the brain. The entire process is non-invasive and typically less than 19 minutes.

Newport Psychiatry & TMS Therapy Reviews
Laura
Why is this treatment not advertised the same way medications are? Meds have a lengthy list of potential side-effects, up to and including suicide! I experienced NO side-effects with TMS. Dr. Girgis and his staff are wonderful. I didn't feel rushed, or unheard. They have been so kind, helpful and compassionate! The doctor gave me all the time I needed to ask questions and understand the treatments.

Newport TMS has been life changing. I decided to give it a shot after trying every medication in the book for my treatment-resistant anxiety and panic attacks, even though TMS is mostly marketed for depression. It took a few weeks before I began noticing a subtle change in the way I was feeling. I urge you to stick it out. It eventually hit me, and I realized I was feeling such a decrease in anxiety like never before.

For my 8 week treatment, I went every weekday to the office. There was not a day that I wasn't greeted with a warm and friendly welcome. The staff almost started to feel like family. They were wonderful! Dr. Girgis is very kind and caring. He has tremendous knowledge and background in the field of psychiatry. I felt I was in very good hands. He was available for consultations through the treatment and I'm pleased with the results of the TMS.

Dr. Girgis is an awesome doctor and a great person in general. He has been my doctor for Suboxone maintenance for the last 4 years, and I would readily recommend him to anyone who is seeking this type of treatment. His staff, especially Sam, are great, and they are very easy to to work with. If you are looking for a doctor with some integrity and compassion, then Dr. Girgis is a great choice!!

Dr Girgis and his staff are fantastic. Dr Girgis takes the time to listen to you as a real person and patient, and works with you to develop a treatment plan that you are comfortable with. Every time I have an appointment, his staff call to remind me and work with me if I need to change it. Every appointment Dr Girgis takes the time to listen if a medication is not working, and offers suggestions and explains why he believes they will help. Great staff, great office, great doctor. Highly recommended!

I am beyond thankful and grateful that I found Dr. Girgis, Amir, and Amany. About a month ago, my anxiety, OCD and depression had taken a toll on my mental health and physical well-being. I was so crippled with anxiety and depression. At my first appointment, I felt so safe that I finally opened up about all my worries and troubles. I was comforted with kind words and pray. Dr. Girgis, Amir and Amany have saved my life. In less than a month, I feel like I did 30 years ago. I am happy, joyful, lighthearted and my depression and anxiety have disappeared. I am fully living my life in the moment with a sense of clarity and hope. Thank you so much Dr. Grigis, Amir and Amany from the bottom of my heart for saving my life.

Dr Girgis met me where I was at in one of the lowest places of my life. I was sobbing in his office and struggling with debilitating anxiety. He prayed for me and I felt such goodness and strength from this wonderful doctor… He is my angel sent by God for how he has helped me. Then there is the most amazing staff in the world… two more angels sent by God. Amir and Amany ♥️. Being able to come and find help, healing and peace with those two was/is such a gift! They are not only office staff and treatment technicians… they offer their own hearts, love and care over you when you are at the lowest place in life. Two of the most incredible people I’ve ever met. Newport TMS has been a God send and I wouldn’t be this ok and this healed without TMS and these amazing people. 🙏🏼
Randa
I got 2 incidence of Depression before, and I was on Medication that helped me but not fully recovered. I had the chance to meet Dr. Girgis and he explained to me that my condition could be better with TMS treatment. In the beginning I was little worried form the machine and if it will have side effects but really it was amazing experience. I took 36 sessions, after 2nd week may be 8 to 10 sessions I felt something different, I started to be fully energetic, focusing more in my work, my memory became better which I could concentrate better in everything. No side effects happened to me. I want to thanks Dr. Girgis and his professional teams that helped me recover my situation. I highly recommend anyone suffering from low energy and poor memory from depression to go ahead and start this treatment. For

I've suffered many years of depression and anxiety trying many medications that did not work. I found Newport TMS Psychiatry Dr. Girgis, and staff Amir and Amini who are the kindest professionals ever. After the first few weeks I experienced noticeable changes within me.

You should try TMS Therapy it really works and I feel wonderful! Thank you Dr. Girgis, Amir and Amini I appreciate all of you.
