We combine traditional psychiatric practice with genetics, extensive laboratory analysis, and innovative treatment methods to offer our patients the best medical care possible.
“Several years ago, I made the decision to look beyond standard practice to try to improve the life of every one of my patients. I began researching strategies to help treatment resistant patients. Where I found scientifically based positive outcomes, I incorporated new treatment modalities into our clinic. More of our patients are reporting good outcomes; the change has made me personally very optimistic about the future of psychiatric care.”

“I have been dealing with depression since High School and I retired in 2008. One day something “clicked” in my brain and I stopped being the confident, happy person I normally was. I had to deal with extra tiredness, anxiety and a depressed mood. I lost my passion for life at a critical time when I should have been out developing my life skills. In addition, I had several close deaths in my family that greatly affected me.
However, since I was not severely depressed, I was able to put on my acting face each day and try my best to conquer the obstacles of life. I always blamed the circumstances or difficult people for my distress and anxiety. I always thought my next stage in life would make me happy but it never did. I tried medications and they helped me out for a number of years.

Once retired, the depression (although treated with medication) seemed to get worse and I became more withdrawn socially. I read about TMS treatment done on a patient in the Rapid City Journal with Dr. Manlove. Rather than get on higher doses of medication, I thought I should give it a try. It seemed like a strange therapy and I didn’t think it was going to work on me. However, after about 4 weeks, something “clicked” in my brain. It was in the fall of the year and all of the sudden the leaves on the trees appeared more brilliant and beautiful and I started becoming more social.
I am now working part time, following my passions in life. I take each day as it comes. I now enjoy interacting with different people and I am more patient. I still have my share of rough patches in life but I feel more resilient. I do get down occasionally but so far I have been able to find my happiness again.
If you don’t want to take a lot of medication or if medication does not work for you, you should try TMS for depression.”

“My husband has suffered from depression for approximately 25 years but was able to keep it under control with medication until 2016. Our life was turned upside down at that time. At the time he was working as a heavy equipment operator. He finally had to quit his job, there were days he could not get out of bed let alone go to work.
He tried several different depression meds with no avail. He also tried counseling and was admitted to the psychiatric unit a couple times.
He had no quality of life at all. He just kept saying he wanted to go to sleep and not wake up. He would promise me he would never harm himself but the worry was always in the back of my mind.

Everyday as I would leave for work I wondered what I would come home to. I would call him many times throughout the day checking on him and if he wouldn’t answer I would at times go home from work to check on him. There were days I wouldn’t even go to work for fear of leaving him alone.
When we felt all our options were up, we heard about Dr Manlove’s TMS treatment. When I say that this treatment made a world of difference it is an understatement. My husband got his life back!! He now enjoys doing the things he used to do. I got my husband back. My boys got their dad back. Our granddaughters got their grandpa back.
He still has down days and days he just doesn’t feel good mentally, but he definitely has come a long way.
I can honestly say that Dr Manlove and Mandy saved his life.
We would definitely recommend TMS treatment for anyone fighting this terrible illness.”
