Our Testimonials
When I first came to see Dr. Bermudes I was suffering from very severe anxiety and depression, plus OCD. I had already tried many different medications to treat these disorders, none of which worked, because I am medication resistant. I was about ready to give up, but he told me not to worry and that he would help me. That’s when my TMS journey with him began, along with my healing, and I cannot put into words how grateful I am now. I feel as though I have a new lease on life! His patience, knowledge, compassion and understanding have been of immeasurable benefit to me, and the TMS is so easy to do, with none of the side effects which I was having from all those meds. I would very highly recommend him and his practice!My mind, thinking and memory is much clearer and back to normal! I feel more confident in my thinking, memory and my attention has really improved. It is amazing how clear my mind feels.

Under Dr Bermudes’ care I started TMS therapy along with weekly Zoom sessions. Dr. Bermudes was always on time and was very attentive during the sessions. He kept a positive outlook, ensuring me that my depression was treatable and manageable. Dr. Bermudes monitored my condition carefully and made changes to the frequency of TMS treatments along with gradual modifications to my medications. He kept me focused on positive events and had me plan each day’s activities. With Dr. Bermudes’ expertise and compassionate care, I am now in remission. I wake up every morning looking forward to the new day instead of laying in bed dreading what lies ahead. Dr. Bermudes has given me the tools to manage my depression long-term. I highly recommend Dr. Bermudes for mental health care.

Managing a chronic mental health condition has exposed me to many providers throughout the years. My Empathy MindCare provider’s psychiatric care positively exceeds all my prior psychiatric care experiences. My treatment has been empowering, holistic and successful. When medication was insufficient alone to treat depression, my provider was equipped to treat me with TMS. Experientially, TMS seemed to set a new, higher baseline for my overall mood. I’ve never returned to the same depth of depression I experienced prior to TMS treatment.
