MeRT Testimonials

I went to Braincare Performance center with my own set of challenges stemming from life traumas, military time, and a past career in Anti-Terrorism. Prior to treatment, I found myself with a mind that was dealing with a lot of conflicting issues and processing thoughts at a very high speed. This hyper thought process made it difficult to deal with any one issue, as the feeling I acquired from the hyper mental state began to present itself as one general feeling of discomfort and mental crowding of thoughts. As you can imagine, living under these conditions made my quality of life less than what would be considered normal.

“I discovered Braincare Performance Center while doing research for helpful remedies to deal with PTSD. I was quickly drawn toward the idea of the MERT TMS treatment process and would recommend that anyone dealing with their own issues visit their website and gain knowledge of it for yourself. It has the ability to help with many diagnoses and is a healthy option for treatment, in my opinion.

“My initial consultation and brain scan with Dr. Brossfield and Robert Brossfield went very well. During the consult, I was presented with a brain scan that was clearly explained to me and gave good insight into what I was dealing with mentally and physically. The insight from the brain scan was beneficial in the sense that it gave confirmation of what I had been feeling and dealing with. It was an emotional moment for my wife and me, and the Brossfields made us feel very comfortable. The meeting turned into a nice, heartfelt moment.

“During my treatment, I was well taken care of by the Braincare team. The scans and treatment are painless, and I enjoyed the process, to be honest. I had great conversations with the technicians, and the office was always welcoming. After my first couple treatments, I felt some very mild mental fatigue, but I appreciated the feeling, as it gave me a sense that the treatment was giving my brain a workout. Within a couple of weeks, it was definite that changes were taking place within my brain and that a better quality of life was possible. Following brain scans during treatment displayed the positive changes taking place and helps greatly with staying motivated during treatment.

“I have no regrets from the treatment and am so glad I went for it. I definitely feel that the treatment I received was beneficial and that my challenges in life will be easier to deal with and life overall more promising.

“Thank you so much for everything. I love you all.” – S. Engle

Brain Injuries

“Dr. Brossfield and her staff are amazing, kind, and knowledgeable, and they always go the extra mile for their patients. In my husband’s journey back to health, it’s been difficult to find doctors who want to address the root cause, are willing to work with their patients to explore this, and also have a network of like-minded physicians. Dr. B and her team are interested in this and work with patients both to understand and resolve health issues.

“My husband suffered an anoxic brain injury. The Braincare Performance Center was willing to work with us and went to great lengths to make sure the treatments wouldn’t interfere with his defibrillator. The treatments my husband has done are showing great results, and he continues to progress in his recovery. If you’re looking for a doctor who will work with you on your health journey, look no further!”

R. Sneed

“I have been to multiple brain treatment clinics and have spent 8 weeks in total in treatment, plus time with the Sonal. I can honestly say that Dr. Brossfield is by far the most compassionate, attentive, and thorough of all the doctors. She takes time to understand your issues and provides the most complete explanation of your EEG and treatment.

“In general, the MERT changed my life. I had multiple concussions, POTS, and Dysautonomia. And I had brain fog, depression, fatigue, word loss, etc. I am so much better now—energy, concentration, and mood have all improved immensely.”

K. Fauntleroy

Mental Performance

“I heard Dr. Brossfield speak on the MeRT process several years ago. What she shared about brain health and, in particular, how MeRT differs from a pharmaceutical approach intrigued both me and my wife. It seemed so logical.

“I am nearing the age where my mother began to show mental decline. Not wanting to be a burden on my family and to live a full, healthy life, I decided to have a baseline EEG completed and a consult with Dr. Brossfield. It was so enlightening and encouraging.

“I have now experienced about 25 treatments and see a definite improvement in memory, lower anxiety, and better reaction time in sports. I feel I am doing something significant to make a difference in my life, thanks to Dr. Brossfield and her truly outstanding staff.”

J. Levy

Anxiety/Depression

“Is there 10 stars? If there were, that’s what I’d rate the treatment AND the staff at Braincare Performance Center. From the tour to the EEG to the first treatment… everything has been handled with care and precision.

“As a lifelong anxiety sufferer, I was very eager to see how MeRT could help calm my brain. I’m 3/4 through treatment, and I am simply amazed at my results… and I’m not even done yet!

“Dr. Brossfield is a super kind, caring, AND smart doctor! She had me figured out in no time, creating the perfect individualized program for me. The practitioners are also kind, fun, gentle, and understanding. Lastly, Robert, who seems to run the operation, is equally kind and helpful.

“You owe it to yourself to at least take a tour and get an EEG to see how MeRT can help you!”

E. Scarcella

“My experience has been great. I have seen a big impact on my sleep, anxiety, panic attacks, and depression. My energy, focus, and stress have changed tremendously.”

I. Aceves

“I would like to share my wonderful experience. After the first two weeks, I noticed a huge improvement in my mental health. Things that used to frustrate me now seem easier or even a fun challenge. The technicians are very friendly and provide excellent customer service. They know what they are doing and explain everything you ask. I would definitely recommend it to people. They also always disinfect everything and only allow one patient inside the building at a time. I loved my experience there.”

G. Alvarez

General

“They should have a clause in Google reviews that allows 10 stars for businesses like this. The staff is friendly, informative, and truly caring. The environment is clean and comfortable. You feel a sense of comfort the moment you walk through the doors.

“Dr Jeralyn is one of a kind, and you can tell she only brought on the best employees to support her vision and dream. I truly believe this is one of the few healthcare providers that put the patient first. Your health is one of the most important investments you can make in life, so if you want to go somewhere where they are truly invested in helping, choose Braincare Performance Center. 10 out of 10 rating.”

D. Foster

Autism

“We originally brought our son here, who’s 5 years old, with the thought that we just want to try and give him every opportunity we can to function at his best; he struggles with various issues such as Impulsivity, agitated moods, etc.

“I’m honestly amazed at the technology and how quickly we started to see changes in him. He has had major progress in the last 4 weeks he is able to conversate on higher levels. His focus has sharpened, and he’s concentrating on building and creating more with his hands, sitting for longer periods of time while he works on projects.

“The largest change that we noticed immediately was his mood has stabilized! He has been so happy and calm! We have not experienced any negative side effects whatsoever. Easy and painless treatments!

“Dr. Brossfield and her team are knowledgeable and warm, and make this experience one you don’t want to end.”

J. Young

“For us, as a family of an autistic child, it was a great blessing to find this place. I share with you some of the changes that our six-year-old son had and continues to have.

“He only said about five words; now he says his first name and his two last names, and every day, he surprises us with new words. He has more eye contact, and he plays imaginatively. Before, he didn’t want to go to school… now he goes alone to his classroom. His teacher and his speech therapist are very surprised with his change, just like us.

“Many thanks to Dr. Jeralyn Brossfield and Robert Brossfield for being so kind and explaining everything in detail. Thank you very much to Crystal and Alex for always treating us with great kindness. We hope to return very soon so that our son continues to improve every day.”

N. Cienfuegos

“My son has autism spectrum disorder. He suffers from anxiety, depression, and high blood pressure. He couldn’t sleep, as his anxiety was too much to the point of not being able to sleep. We had a very difficult time with him.

“Today, I can tell you that with the treatment, my son sleeps all night now, and his anxiety decreased a lot. I feel that he pays more attention to the things around him. My son has improved a lot, and as a family, we are calmer, and we rest more.

“We are also very grateful to the people who gave the treatments, as they were very kind and patient with my son. I recommend it 100%.”

mPNS Testimonials

I am writing this review as a physical therapist with 40 years of outpatient orthopedic practice. My husband developed neuropathy in both of his feet 10 years ago, which progressed to foot drop bilaterally, resulting in several falls and difficulty walking any distance, which limits his day-to-day activity. He had a nerve study done by a neurologist and was diagnosed with polyneuropathy. Over time, all of his nerves would lose function, and we were told nothing could be done to reverse this process.

“I heard about Dr. Brossfield and the team at Braincare Performance Center (BPC). They have a magnetic peripheral nerve stimulation (mPNS) device. I was skeptical at first since we had already tried so many things that did not work.

“After the first visit, I watched my husband walk and was so surprised to see a heel-toe walking pattern, which means his foot drop was gone. He turned around to walk toward me, and I could see the underside of his shoe with each step. I have not seen that for more than 2 years because he could not lift his feet due to the nerve damage from the neuropathy.

“After his second session of mPNS, he is now able to actively move all of the toes on his left foot. His walking speed is improved, and he is feeling sore in his shin muscles because they are weak from years of no use. The soreness will improve as he strengthens the muscle.

“We are so thankful for Dr. Brossfield and Robert at BPC Health for bringing mPNS to our community and for the benefits we have already seen. We are very hopeful that with further treatment, the neuropathy will continue to resolve.” – M. Mercogliano

“Six weeks ago, while visiting the Brain Performance Center in Rancho Mirage, Dr. Brossfield recommended a treatment for foot pain called mPNS or magnetic peripheral nerve stimulation.

“Treatment is usually over a period of 4-6 weeks. I had ONE treatment and noticed a significant change to the bottom of my right foot toe pad within a few days. After one week, I was pain-free regardless of the shoe I was wearing. I will definitely return in the fall for a follow-up treatment to keep the pain away.

“I can’t recommend this procedure highly enough. The staff was knowledgeable and professional, and the entire experience was eye-opening!”

J. Stott

“I am truly impressed with my first session for pain relief. Over the years, I have used so many therapies over to minimize extreme neck pain to no avail. I had minimal expectations and literally walked out of my first session beginning at 10 pain level down to 3. After several hours, my pain is at a 2 out of 10 pain scale, and I can’t wait to go back.”

L. Allen

“The peripheral nerve stimulation decreased bilateral shoulder pain to a minimal level of 1/10. It completely restored the shoulder’s range of motion. Treating the painful spinal cord level reduced the pain from an 8-9/10 to a 1/10.

“Unlike medications I had to take in the past, this treatment modality has no side effects for me.”

H. Schaepper

“I have been so happy with my results with the Braincare Performance Center. My husband and I have both worked with Dr. Brossfield and her team for a while now, and highly recommend them for numerous ailments.

“Recently, I have been receiving the mPNS treatment from Robert on old injuries I received when I was a D1 volleyball athlete that never quite healed properly. I was so used to having pain that it was pretty hard to believe it when it was gone after only a few treatments.

“With no downtime, it is a profound and innovative treatment I would recommend for all athletes or people with injuries who have tried everything else! Robert is very knowledgeable and willing to explain all the options for the treatments they offer.”

T. Davis

“I was initially skeptical about how effective the mPNS therapy could be on pain, but considering it’s pain-free and non-invasive, I thought it was worth a try. I had been struggling with a throbbing, achy shoulder for months—which disrupted my sleep and affected my golf game. To my amazement, nothing has ever worked this fast for pain relief before!

“After just three treatments, I’m now sleeping through the night without any pain, and I can enjoy golf again as long as I’m careful not to overdo it. A big thank you to Dr. Brossfield for introducing this incredible technology to the desert!”

S. McLendon

“I have had bilateral neuropathy in my feet for over 10 years and have tried several therapies with very little noticeable improvement. I decided to try the mPNS (magnetic peripheral nerve stimulation) therapy that is offered by Braincare Performance Center (BPC) in Rancho Mirage, CA.

“To begin, the staff at BPC is very warm and welcoming. During my first appointment, Robert took the time to explain how everything works and a little about the history of mPNS.

“One of the symptoms of my neuropathy was foot drop. When I would walk, I would not lift up the front of my feet when taking a step due to weakness and numbness in my ankles and feet. This would occasionally cause me to stub my toe and even fall down on a few occasions.

“After my first treatment, my wife, a physical therapist for over 30 years, noticed that I no longer had the foot drop and that I was walking with a more normal gait pattern.
I decided on a second treatment, and following that treatment, I was able to move the toes on my left foot, a feat that was impossible before the mPNS treatments.

“I am scheduled for a third treatment and am very excited about the improvements so far in my condition, and am looking forward to more benefits from mPNS and working with the staff at Braincare Performance Center.”
