Founder of KAB Medical Group, known as KMG Psychiatry, Dr. Ankur Bindal is a physician trained and certified in psychiatry and sleep medicine who led that San Diego and Los Angeles practice as its CEO and President from 2016 to 2025. The practice he led paired traditional psychiatric care with brain stimulation therapies. At present, Ankur Bindal serves as President and Co-Founder of Aroga Group. Brain stimulation defined the center of Dr. Bindal's clinical work. One such therapy, Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), is a non-invasive outpatient treatment. Its magnetic pulses stimulate nerve cells in the brain to improve symptoms of depression and other conditions, and it's typically chosen for patients who haven't had relief from antidepressant medications. Dr. Bindal developed a high-volume brain stimulation practice at KMG Psychiatry that treated former NFL players, professionals, other physicians and patients from around the world. He made this innovative, costly treatment available to underserved patients, too. Designated a Diamond Circle Provider, an honor awarded to the highest-volume TMS practices, he was also a 2023 recipient of two awards from Health Conference 2.0: the Outstanding Leadership Award and the Outstanding Corporation Award. Across his years of practice, Ankur Bindal integrated conventional psychiatric treatment, such as medication management and counseling, with newer therapies that included TMS and intranasal esketamine (Spravato). Bringing the two together served one aim: the best possible outcomes for patients. Sleep medicine formed his second area of clinical expertise. He trained in it as a fellow in the University of Michigan's Department of Neurology, and he earned board certification in sleep medicine. With Progressive Sleep Center, Inc., he was a co-founder, a co-owner and the Treasurer.
