Choose around your daily starting point

Know what you want the consultation to answer

When depression has not improved with other care, a TMS evaluation is an opportunity to review your treatment history and discuss realistic goals. TMS is noninvasive, uses magnetic pulses, and is typically given while you are awake. Suitability and scheduling depend on clinician assessment.

Ask how your prior medication and psychotherapy experiences inform the recommendation. For safety screening, provide details about seizures, implanted devices, metal in or near the head, and current medications. Discuss any past periods of unusually elevated mood. Ask about common side effects, hearing protection, and how the team tracks changes in depression symptoms.

Build an attendance and coverage plan

Many typical courses require weekday visits over several weeks, while individualized protocols can differ. Get the recommended frequency and total office time before coordinating work breaks, childcare, or transportation. Ask how absences are managed and when the clinician reassesses progress.

Insurance planning should happen alongside scheduling. Ask whether prior authorization is required, who gathers supporting records, and whether approval applies to a specified number of visits. Verify network status and your financial responsibility with the insurer and practice. If the proposed course changes, ask whether coverage must be reviewed again before additional treatment is scheduled.
