Welcome to TMS of Central Florida
TMS of Central Florida is Brandon’s exclusive TMS provider of NeuroStar Advanced Therapy for non-invasive, drug free treatment of Depression in adult patients. TMS is an “FDA Approved” medical procedure that delivers highly focused MRI-strength magnetic pulses to non-invasively (without surgery) stimulate the brain and treat major depression. TMS is performed in a psychiatrist’s office under their supervision while the patient remains awake and alert. Patients do not require anesthesia or sedation and return to their daily routine immediately after each 19-minute treatment. TMS of Central Florida is owned and operated by three prominent psychiatrists, Charles DeVine, M.D., Kathleen Carroll, M.D., and Troy Noonan, M.D.
To schedule an appointment, call Sandi Lopez, TMS Coordinator, at 813-423-7037.
TMS Therapy is the Right Choice
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) uses a targeted pulsed magnetic field, similar to what is used in an MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) machine. While the patient is awake and alert, NeuroStar TMS Therapy stimulates areas of the brain that are underactive in depression.

What Patients are Saying
I think everyone’s experience is different, I can however tell you that TMS has changed my life for the better! I think back to how I lived my life before TMS and how I live my life now and I can honestly say it’s been a 180!
Jack K.
TMS allowed me the relief from depression without the side effects of ECT.
Janice
I don’t need meds anymore so I’m not dealing with side effects. I’m starting to lose the weight that I gained while on the meds. I have real emotions. I am me again, not some watered down version of me.
Christine
I am a living testament that TMS does indeed work and would tell anyone considering the treatment to look at the part of your life and your immediate family, friends and career aspirations that have suffered with you with this real condition.
