Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation or TMS therapy is an FDA-approved, non-drug treatment for people suffering from symptoms of major depression. Find out if TMS can be an alternative solution for you. Since the 1960's, Ketamine has been used safely as an anesthetic for a variety of medical purposes for both children and adults. More recently, Ketamine was rediscovered as an efficacious and rapid-acting medication for treating major depression, bipolar depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, chronic pain and other mood and mental health disorders.

Our team is committed to working with you in checking and confirming your insurance benefits to see if your treatment falls under your insurance coverage. Along with his private payments, Dr. Mendiola is an in-network participant of the following insurance companies, and is in the process of adding other major commercial insurances.
To be sure, the prolonged quarantines and preventive lockdowns have taken its toll on our day-to-day lives, relationships, and general health. In the recent pandemic Wellness issue of 805 Living, Dr. Lee Mendiola shares his insights on our individual and collective stress and anxieties, and how Venturans can, especially, ride out the pandemic.
Throughout our lives, we all have felt sadness, unhappiness, and may be grief. In times of personal tragedy, such as a death of a loved one, job loss or a broken relationship, people may describe themselves as being "depressed" or "having the blues." But then after several days, they are able to bounce back from the stressful event and resume to performing their normal activities.

Dr. Mendiola has helped me tremendously. I came to him at a time when I had not been feeling well for about 9 months. Through his guidance and experience, I have gotten much better over the past several months. I see Dr. Mendiola specifically for med management, and not for talk therapy. Just the same, he has shared some thoughts and given me some helpful advice which has gone beyond med management. I have a lot of confidence in him.

Dr. Mendiola has helped me get my life back. Where other doctors hand out medications like candy, he is thoughtful and truly considers everything he prescribes. He listens and counsels on ways to live life in a healthy way, giving power back to his patients. Between the TMS and psychiatry, I am incredibly grateful for Dr. Mendiola's genuine care and kindness.

My experience with the staff, services and TMS treatment has been life changing! I have trusted Dr. Mendiola and his staff for over 5 years and recommend their services to anyone struggling with mental health. There are no words to describe how life changing TMS treatment has been and continues to help/improve my mental and emotional health. I am beyond grateful!

Absolutely terrible do yourself a favor go get real help from real doctors. If you are lucky enough to happen upon a good doctor here they will leave they will not last. Doctor Mendiola runs a poor practice and he doesn't care about mental health That's why all of his quality staff leaves him to do yourself a favor and go to somebody that cares. Every time there's a bad review they try to bury it with fake good ones.
Go through the reviews and see all the thumbs up on the bad reviews. If you were treated terribly here I am sorry it was not your fault and you need to go get real help From a real doctor that really cares about your mental health not how much money they can make off of you.

I'm unable to control my own behavior without psychiatric medications. I'm unable to control suicidal ideation without medications too. I can't always remember my appointments. I've been at my worst lately but Michelle Hamilton NP has provided a compassionate outlet. I'm stable now on my mix of psychiatric medications so I therefore likely owe her my life. I no longer have debilitating nightmares. NP Hamilton solved the nightmares. Completely. I look forward to continuing treatment now which hasn't always been the case.

Dr. Mendiola is The best Psychiatrist I have ever seen! Trust me, and I have been searching for a kind Psychiatrist for Over ten years! Someone who cares about me and doesn't just write a prescription within 5 minutes, and that's it. The office staff is friendly and helpful. They make you feel welcome. In addition, Dr. Mendiola's office has TMS therapy.
I get horrible side effects from medications. The TMS Therapy was the best thing I could have done for myself. Dr. Mendiola was the one that recommended it. I am so grateful for everything he & his staff have done for me. I highly recommend Dr. Mendiola if you are suffering from anxiety or depression disorder.

This entire office is just absolutely amazing. Two years ago I started my TMS journey with Dr. M and it completely turned my whole world around for the better. I took the plunge after years of convincing myself otherwise and it was the best decision I ever made. The entire staff is so friendly and accommodating! Highly recommend.
