We Treat the Episode and Return Your Patient

Breakthrough TMS is a TMS-only practice. When you refer a patient, we manage the Deep TMS episode of care (candidacy evaluation, safety screening, protocol selection, the treatment course, and progress tracking), and your patient returns to your care when the episode concludes. We are set up to complement your treatment relationship, not replace it.

You Refer

Fax the referral or call the provider line. Our team contacts your office and the patient to schedule an evaluation.

We Evaluate & Treat

Dr. Saakyan confirms candidacy under FDA-cleared indications, selects the protocol, and supervises the treatment course.

Your Patient Returns

When the TMS episode concludes, the patient returns to your care with the treatment summary for your records.

Who to Refer

We provide BrainsWay Deep TMS under its FDA-cleared indications:

  • Major Depressive Disorder in adults who have not improved enough with standard care
  • Anxious depression: depression with comorbid anxiety symptoms in adults
  • Late-life depression: FDA-cleared labeling covers patients through age 86
  • Obsessive-compulsive disorder (H7 coil protocol)
  • Adolescent Major Depressive Disorder, ages 15 and older

Within these indications, referrals are especially appropriate for:

  • Patients with treatment-resistant depression: inadequate response to one or more antidepressant trials.
  • Patients who can't tolerate medication side effects, or who prefer a non-pharmacological, non-systemic treatment.

Not sure whether a patient fits? Call the provider line: a brief case discussion before the referral is often the fastest path.
