My depression is completely gone
After almost 15 years of trying medication after medication, TMS has been the only thing to help my depression and anxiety. The treatment is long over the course of six weeks, but completely worth it. My quality of life has significantly improved and I finally feel free from my depression for the first time since I was a teenager. The staff and techs are incredible and we’re helpful with any questions you may have during treatment, and Dr. Gowda was supportive throughout the entire process. I cannot thank them enough!

TMS was successful for me.
I've been taking antidepressant medication for about 35 years changing frequently until I found one that worked for me. Even then, I still had depression and anxiety symptoms. I started the TMS treatment and it really helped me. Life is not as overwhelming as it felt before. I feel content, more confidant, less irritable, more focused, and calmer. My self-worth improved and I take better care of myself; I feel I'm worth it. The staff was very supportive and understanding. This was a good experience for me.

I began taking antidepressants many years ago and my symptoms eased somewhat, but I developed a tolerance to many of the medications and changed prescriptions over the years. The treatment provided short moments of improvement, but my depression symptoms persisted. Initially I contacted TMS for medication management. My former doctor could no longer treat me from New York. I had never heard of TMS and was very hesitant to commit. More than a month passed before I began treatment.TMS is much more than the actual procedure. Every member of the team aids in patient care and is positive and kind while focusing on clinical outcomes.Sitting in the waiting room every day, I was reminded that I am not alone. We can’t see depressive disorder: it’s inconspicuous and insidious. It corrodes the psyche and the spirit. I didn’t realize how bad I felt until I started to feel better. I am grateful for TMS, my treatment and its outcome and recommend it for those still suffering.

Does not even deserve to be a DR.
Upon my initial visit, at first site, without even finding out my name or anything of my situation , he literally flipped out on me, he was RUDE, CRUDE, TOTALLY UNPROFESSIONAL .... He seemed to have more care for a pet hamster. Never the less, I persevered and went a second time, I tried to explain to him that his unprofessional conduct was not necessary. To his credit, he dialed it down from a 10 on an unprofessional scale to an 8. Speaking of Hamsters, I have personally dealt with veterinarian's that had more compassion... STAY AWAY............ There are good Dr's out there, just difficult to find....

Very likely to recommend Dr. Gowda & staff.
The entire staff was very friendly & accommodating, from scheduling to your treatments. I had a very speedy recovery, due to TMS, medication, & knowledge received from staff on depression & anxiety.

Blessed
I was referred to Dr Gowda in February 2023. He suggested TMS therapy since I’ve tried and failed over 15 different antidepressants. I was skeptical but at this point what did I have to lose. My husband encouraged me to try it, I wish I reached out to his office sooner…TMS/Therapy has changed my whole outlook on my life. I haven’t felt this stable in many, many years. Dr Gowda has an approach no other dr had in the past. He takes his time, he LISTENS. My most recent appt lasted over 30 mins but he didn’t rush me out of his office. I am so thankful to him and his staff. Especially Jordan. She goes above and beyond. I can’t say enough how blessed I feel to have them both in my corner. TMS is definitely worth trying!!

Wonderful Doctor and Staff
Dr. Gowda and staff are educated, caring, and compassionate about the mental health of each patient. Dr. Gowda is pleasant and has a positive outlook that is geared toward “problem solving” your particular mental health issue. I am being seen for “depression”. With the help of the staff, Dr Gowda, and the TMS therapy/ treatment my life has changed for the better. I did not think that this could or would ever happen. They have all helped me gain a “new lease on life”. So thankful!

People That Care
At first I was doubtful but between Dr. Gowda and his amazing staff I did the TMS treatment and thankful I did! The change gave me my confidence and well being back to me again. One thing I found amazing is that they take the time to listen to me and my feelings of how I am doing. Thanks again!

Knowledgeable, Kind and Caring Service
Dr. Gowda and his staff have an excellent patient focus. The Trans Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) therapy was effective and helped to improve my perspective on life. The staff was professional and caring throughout the process. They sought constant feedback on how I was doing at each treatment session. I highly recommend the services provided by Dr. Gowda's Office as I believe their approach to care is a balanced and effective solution for mental health care.

Do NOT seek treatment from this man.
Doctor Gowda is belittling, rude, demeaning, dismissive, and impatient. It’s very clear from the moment he walks in the room that he has no interest in listening and is in a rush to leave. I don’t think I was able to finish a single thought or sentence in the entirety of our conversation. He cut me off the entire time/did not let me think about my responses- the exact opposite of how somebody in this field should act. He’s so out of touch and has no bedside manner or people skills whatsoever. It’s people like him that are the exact reason that people with mental health issues don’t seek help. I whole heartedly believe the ONLY thing keeping him in business is those same APNs he works along side of. This man does not have a leg to stand on on his own. Do NOT go here. Do NOT contribute your money or time to this man’s livelihood. I am disgusted by the way I was treated by him. He is an appalling human being. Don’t make the same mistake I did. Seek treatment elsewhere.

TMS
TMS has given me my life back! My depression has lifted, my paralyzing anxiety is gone, I’ve found my energy and motivation again. I can’t say enough about how much TMS helped me. And all the staff at Dr. Gowda’s office was so kind. I would definitely recommend looking into TMS if you are struggling. Benefits with no side effects!

Dr. Gowda and the TMS staff changed my life. I had spent 60 years experiencing anxiety, depression & vasomotor rhinitis. All three made me feel like I wasn’t living my best self. I am now free of those symptoms & enjoying life. One remarkable outcome was that TMS treatment relaxed the nerve endings in my sinuses. I was diagnosed at 22 yrs. old with “overactive” sinuses which means my nerve endings were in overdrive, causing a pulsating, engorged feeling that was making my anxiety even worse because I was feeling ill. Both Dr. Gowda and his staff are friendly, welcoming, professional & highly trained. He is empathetic & truly concerned for your well being. I highly recommend his practice.

My wonder experience
I received the TMS treatments with Dr Gouda and his amazing staff. It was 36 sessions plus appointments with Dr. Gouda after having had 9 treatments. I can say from experience that the TMS treatment for anxiety as well as another treatment OCD using magnetic helmet, worked tremendously for me. The staff, everyone who works they're were super supportive and loving to me. They truly care about they're patient's. Dr. Gouda chooses very knowledgeable and educated people who he trains to help his patients. I feel so much better!!!! It has changed my life. I'm so much more positive and worrying isnt taking over my life anymore. They also have an awesome therapist Mike who isthere for you if need be. I am not exaggerating when I say from how I felt when I first walked in those doors was that I walked into Heaven and Angel's were there to help me out of a very difficult place. I thank each and everyone one of you there at the office for everything you provided for me. I am eternally grateful.

All the bad reviews are right. He eats and takes personal calls while in session with you as well as allowing his office staff to enter the room. Most of them are in college. Twice he had one of his office girls in the room with us without any explanation why they were in there. Also your sessions with him are typically 10 minutes. Be prepared to be treated like you are an addict. In addition to him changing your meds a lot and trying to convince you that you need more tms. Tms…. Let me be the one to tell you it’s a psychological trick. You believe it will help and you will find ways to convince yourself it helps. It doesn’t. At best you’ll feel a spike in energy for a few hours and then have disrupted sleep. This guy only exists to milk your insurance and new patient intake. Easy money minimal effort. If you are truly struggling do not even consider this place.
