What to Expect

In order to identify your problem and determine the best treatment for you, our headache specialists will:

  • Review your current condition as well as your past medical history
  • Attempt to understand your symptoms, triggers and headache patterns
  • Perform a detailed neurological examination
  • Order additional testing such as a imaging of your head, if indicated
  • Have you complete a headache log or diary
  • Review the findings to identify your condition and determine the best approach to treatment

Treatment options vary depending on your condition and may include lifestyle intervention recommendations and/or medications.
