STIM Neuronetics Inc

Neuronetics, Inc. (NASDAQ: STIM), a medical technology company focused on designing, developing, and marketing products that improve the quality of life for patients who suffer from neurohealth disorders, is proud to shine a light on the powerful stories shared through the NeuroStar Voices Portal in recognition of Suicide Prevention Month. Launched last year, the portal has become a vital platform for individuals to share their journeys of battling depression and reclaiming their lives through NeuroStar Advanced Therapy.

NeuroStar is also marking a key milestone, reaching halfway toward its goal of saving 3,325 lives with this transformative therapy. In less than three years, NeuroStar has treated 88,533 patients, potentially saving 1,771 lives. This achievement is part of a five-year plan to treat 166,240 people with NeuroStar TMS and save 3,325 lives.*1 The five-year plan accelerates momentum gained since NeuroStar’s initial FDA clearance in 2008. The 88,533 patients treated in such a short time represent more than half the total number of patients treated between 2008 and 2023.

“When we set the goal of saving 3,325 lives, it was more than an objective—it was a heartfelt commitment to providing hope to those struggling to stay afloat,” said Keith J. Sullivan, President and CEO of Neuronetics, Inc. “Surpassing the halfway mark underscores that every life saved is a testament the bravery of those fighting depression and the impact NeuroStar has on their mental health journey. The inspiring stories shared through the NeuroStar Voices Portal humanizes these milestones, showcasing the transformative power of our therapy and the renewed hope it brings to individuals and their families.”

The NeuroStar Voices Portal powerfully illustrates NeuroStar’s life-saving impact on those battling depression, as well as its profound effects on families and communities.
