What is it?

Transcranial magnetic stimulation - also known as TMS - is an FDA-approved, non-invasive, and non-medication treatment for depression. No longer do you have to accept an incomplete response to medication or intolerable side effects such as weight gain, loss of libido, constipation, fatigue or the many others.

In 2011, Dr. Augustus excitedly brought the cutting-edge technology of TMS to her patients and the greater Memphis area.

Dr. Augustus has successfully administered TMS to over
