Our Headache Clinic brings together pediatric neurologists, psychologists and nurse practitioners to evaluate the causes and determine the correct diagnosis to treat your child.
Headaches can be caused by several environmental, physical and emotional factors, including head injuries, fevers, stress, weather changes, and food, as well as inherited disorders.
During your child's first visit to our headache clinic, a neurologist will collect a detailed medical history and conduct a physical exam. Your child will also meet with our pediatric psychologist to address possible non-medical and emotional factors. If necessary, diagnostic tests will be performed, such as a CT scan or MRI. The visit takes approximately 3 hours.
We offer several treatments, including:
