Dr. Book is a strong and compassionate person who cheers you on when you've accomplished even the most minimal of goals and encourages you to forgive yourself if you've faltered. He is gracious and funny!!

Dr. Book is without doubt the best psychiatrist I have ever worked with over the more than 50 years I have been receiving treatments. And his technician, Kamal (I hope that s the correct spelling) is also excellent. My experience with the TMS clinic has been superb. I would highly recommend this TMS facility and it s providers to anyone.

Both my Dr, Dr Book and my TMS technician Kamal did nothing but show complete professionalism, respect, and compassion during every single one of my treatments. They not only did their jobs to the best of their ability, but they did their jobs with Grace and Humility.
