A location that works for an occasional appointment may be harder to manage repeatedly. Think about whether visits would begin from home, a workplace, or a family member's home. Many TMS courses involve weekday sessions over several weeks; individualized protocols may differ. Ask about the recommended schedule, total time at the office, and flexibility if work shifts or caregiving duties change.

Make the consultation useful

When depression has not improved enough with other care, a consultation can help clarify whether TMS is a reasonable option. This noninvasive treatment uses magnetic pulses and is typically delivered while you are awake. Suitability and the treatment schedule depend on clinician assessment.

Bring a history of medications and therapy, including what helped, what did not, and any side effects. Ask how symptoms and daily functioning will be tracked, when response will be reviewed, and how ongoing care will be coordinated with your other clinicians.

Verify safety and insurance steps

Ask how the team evaluates seizure history, implanted devices or metal near the head, and medicines that may affect safety. Request clear information about expected sensations, common side effects, and rare serious risks such as seizures.

Insurance authorization can require documentation of prior care. Ask who gathers and submits those records, whether the clinician and facility are in network, and what you may owe. Clarify whether approval has session limits or expiration dates before making extended work and family arrangements.
