We speak with Heather Luing, a psychiatrist specializing in treatment-resistant depression. As depression rates in the U.S. have tripled over the last year, we explore why traditional treatments may not work for everyone and discuss innovative therapies like transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). Heather sheds light on how TMS offers hope for patients struggling with ongoing symptoms, the science behind it, and why it's still underutilized despite its effectiveness.
Heather Luing is a psychiatrist.
She discusses the KevinMD article, "Can a magnet treat depression?"
