Since 1985

All of our patients have been seen by physicians from
different specialties prior to their presentation. Some patients
have been seen by chiropractic providers or “therapists” in a variety of fields, including acupuncture. Worse yet, some patients have been seen by “quacks”, who thrive on the patients desperation to do anything to be rid of their headaches. Such providers exploit the patients’ suffering only to enrich themselves, selling concepts that are hardly scientific! At times, the patients have been misdiagnosed and mismanaged. No wonder then, if some patients initially are skeptical and doubtful that any of our interventions will succeed. We understand. To you, our prospective patient, we offer an approach which is scientifically based and tested. This clinic is run by a physician who has the required medical credentials and the skills necessary to deal with chronic pain and the issues it presents; including depression, anxiety and poor sleep among other things.

Our Strategy
The clinic’s approach is geared toward Long-Term Headache Prevention. Our methods are scientific, using the latest proven techniques in the field of medicine. We have the credentials to use this approach, successfully. The clinic is dedicated to keep the highest of standards used throughout the nation in the field of headache prevention, which has become quite complex and specialized. Headache prevention aims at treating the underlying headache mechanism involved. This is different from patient to patient. This is the reason that care has to be highly individualized, as opposed to having some “blanket approach” to treat every patient. There is no simple treatment that is appropriate for all headache sufferers. A patient’s care plan is as unique as they are, and, the type of headache they have.

Our Purpose
The Headache Clinic of Denver has one purpose. That purpose is to alleviate the pain and suffering  of those individuals whose lives are shattered by severe, recurrent and difficult to treat headaches. At times, the headaches have been so severe that their lives, work and relationships are devastated. Our aim is to restore to our patients the quality of life they want; such that they can again lead happy and productive lives; both at home and the
workplace. We, in short, seek to prevent your headaches for the rest of your life!

Our Success Rate
Given our wealth of experience, our dedication, the adoption of the desired life-style changes necessary, the prospective patient can be reassured of being headache free in three months (on average). Our success rate is as high as 90%. The most optimal results are accomplished when we and the patient do our parts: jointly. More severe cases can, of course, take longer

This program boasts very high physician-patient contact, from the initial consultation onward. Follow up visits are one on one and are extensive. Patient’s questions and concerns are addressed with care and attention. We attempt to create a positive atmosphere where the patient feels cared for on a deep level.

Our Patient Population
Virtually all of our patients have chronic headaches and have been treated without success prior to their arrival here. Some patients headaches have become intractable (constant and resistant to traditional treatment).

In terms of gender, we treat both men and women from all walks of life. We also treat headaches in children.
 
We treat patients who have sustained trauma (either from an injury on the job or related to an auto accident).
