PROUDLY SERVING WILMINGTON, DELAWARE

With a dedicated physician providing psychiatric care, we utilize the treatment modality of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS therapy) at Brandywine Valley TMS. As an outpatient procedure, TMS is performed under our doctor's direct supervision to ensure the comfort and safety of our patients. Our founder, Dr. Jack Castro, has been in practice in Wilmington Delaware since 2017, utilizing both medication and psychotherapy for the treatment of psychiatric conditions. However, Dr. Castro found that for a subset of patients, traditional methods were sometimes not fully effective or caused unwanted side effects. It is due to these findings that Brandywine Valley TMS was founded.

When it comes to depression treatment, TMS therapy can be an amazing alternative to medicine. Have questions? We can help!
