Dr. David Schechter - my personal experience

Well known member
Hi Everyone,

I just wanted to share my personal experience.

After diagnosing myself with TMS, I went to see Dr. Schechter in LA. I was very grateful to have this experience. Dr. Sarno wants potential TMS patients to see a doctor.

I worked on Sarno's program for a few months on my own. I did improve. However, I am not a medical doctor. Dr. Sarno recommends seeing a doctor to confirm your TMS diagnosis.

While my pain was improving, I felt isolated with my journal and my Sarno books. I really wanted to talk to somebody about my experience. I wanted to talk to someone who is very knowledgeable about TMS.

Dr. Schechter spent a good deal of time with me. He gave me full medical examination. He listened to my concerns. He gave me referrals to TMS therapists. He said I could contact him anytime I had questions.

He did diagnose me with TMS. I can't comment on what products he supports for does not support. I just wanted to share my experience. I appreciated the opportunity to meet him.

Best,
AC45
