TMS for depression, in Inglewood.
TMS is FDA-cleared for major depressive disorder — a drug-free option for people whose mood hasn't lifted with medication, and for those who'd rather not add another prescription.
This may sound familiar
- Low, flat, or heavy mood most days for weeks or months

- You've been told to "just wait it out" more than once
How TMS is used here
- Gentle magnetic pulses target the mood-regulating circuits of the brain
- No anesthesia, no sedation — you stay awake and can drive home after
- Short daily sessions of about 30 minutes over several weeks
- No systemic medication side effects like weight gain or fatigue
- Protocols personalized to your history by Robin Riley-Garner, PA-C
- Care coordinated with our sister family medicine practice

A typical course is short weekday sessions over several weeks, and most people continue working and driving as usual throughout.
