Evaluation, Diagnosis and Treatment of Headache

  1. Our patient centered approach: empower patients to help control their disease, avoid analgesic use, have resources to keep them at work and out of the ER
  2. Rule out of secondary causes of headache, offer the latest acute and preventive medications and combination treatment to optimize effect,
  • Botox
  • Nerve blocks
  • CGRP monoclonal antibodies
  • Other Neuro related treatments

The goal of The Los Angeles Headache Center team is to make a diagnosis of your headache disorder and put in place the appropriate acute and preventive steps to control it. This is a process that may take several visits to fine tune. The treatments are typically used for the long-term and our hope is to build a patient-provider relationship with each individual that we care for. We do not use opiate analgesia to control headaches as there are many alternatives to this approach.
