Transforming TMS Success at Angel Oak Counseling

  • The Challenge

    Angel Oak Counseling (AOC) in Johns Island, South Carolina, faced serious challenges in its TMS program, including:


    Loss of Key Staff


    The TMS treater/coordinator left in April 2024 and had failed to utilize in-practice patient referrals, leaving a gap in patient care.


    Inexperienced Replacement 


    The new hire lacked the necessary skills and struggled with patient cultivation.


    Limited Patient Volume

     

    By June 2024, AOC was treating only 2-3 patients per day, leading to financial losses.


    Without the right team and marketing strategy, the practice risked continued revenue decline and missed opportunities to help more patients.

  • Digital Marketing Campaigns

    • Launched META (Facebook/Instagram) & Google Ads to drive high-intent leads to increase patient reachability.

    • Implemented conversion tracking to optimize patient inquiries and help to better understand their market.
  • TMS Staffing & Training

    • Identified & hired a top-performing TMS treater to replace the underperforming staff member.

    • Provided comprehensive training, including accurate charting, patient communication, and billing coordination, making patients feel confident in their treatment.
  • Internal Patient Pipeline Optimization

    • Took over chart reviews & benefit investigations to increase internal patient conversions.

    • Streamlined the TMS prior authorization process, leading to a 90% approval rate and thus decreasing insurance delays.

Our Solution

TMS Management Group stepped in to provide a comprehensive turnaround strategy, addressing AOC’s staffing issues, patient outreach, and insurance processing.

The Results

  • Steady Growth in Patient Volume

    • From 2-3 patients/day (June 2024) → 7-8 patients/day (September 2024) 

    • Record-setting day for the clinic: 15 patients treated in December 2024
  • Financial Turnaround

    • Revenue jumped from $5K-$10K/month (losses) → $25K/month (profitable)

    • January 2025: Record $40K revenue month
  • Increased Efficiency & Performance

    • The new TMS treater has maintained 100% reliability since hiring, which allows the clinic to focus on patient care.

    • Patients now receive faster insurance approvals & smoother onboarding.
