Overview

Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is a safe, effective and modern psychiatric treatment that we offer for conditions such as severe depression, schizophrenia and mania that don't respond to other treatment methods. About 80-90 percent of patients see significant improvement in symptoms in a relatively short amount of time.

If you would like to know more about ECT or think you may be a candidate for this service, call 478.741.1355.
