Dr. Les Smith, M.D. 700 South Schiller Street, Little Rock, AR 72201

Dr. Les Smith, M.D. is a premier Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) provider in Arkansas, located at 700 South Schiller Street, Little Rock. TMS is an effective, FDA-indicated, non-invasive treatment for depression. This neuromodulation technique uses magnetic pulses to modulate brain function and treat psychiatric diseases, specifically depression. Patients sit in a chair with an electromagnet pressed to the left side of their head, inducing electrical currents in the brain to "reset" the mood regulatory system.

TMS therapy involves a series of treatment sessions lasting approximately 20 minutes each, administered 5 days a week for 4 to 6 weeks. Patients are fully awake during treatment and can return to normal activities immediately after. TMS has received Level A status from the FDA since 2008 and is covered by insurance companies. It has shown greater response rates compared to multiple medication trials.

The most common side effect is mild to moderate pain at the treatment site, which typically subsides within the first week. Dr. Les Smith, M.D. and his team of specialists provide safe and well-researched treatment options for individuals seeking relief from depression. They offer personalized guidance and support throughout the recovery process, helping patients live a life filled with joy, happiness, and passion.
