He was introduced to MeRT during his clinical rotation at Wave Neuroscience. He was astonished by testimonials from both adult and pediatric patients who had received MeRT treatment, as well as the spouses and parents of children whose lives were transformed because of the improvements they observed in their loved ones.

As he said:

“I was initially skeptical that a non-invasive medical treatment could cause such remarkable healing after only their first treatments. It is an effective new technology, so I read everything about it. I was impressed with the sophisticated data analytics and precision medicine approach that provides custom treatment for each individual.

“I was moved after witnessing patients describe how they experienced better sleep, reported better physical and mental performance due to improvements in their cognition, and weaned off from their chronic pain medications and stimulants.

“I have been a military physician for most of my career, and I have seen a lot of functional marines and sailors with chronic fatigue, addiction, depression, anxiety, TBI, and PTSD who didn’t seek treatment because they felt physically strong or didn’t want to take medications due to their operational status. I have also witnessed close friends report exhaustion and near helplessness due to parenting their child with learning difficulties.

“Witnessing firsthand their transformation after receiving MeRT treatment made me a believer in its effectiveness.”

When not working with patients, Dr. Awodele enjoys spending time with his wife and daughters. He also enjoys flying, sailing, diving, camping, traveling, and participating in outdoor athletic events and activities.
