I recently had the opportunity to visit the Headache clinic, and my expectations were exceeded in terms of care and attentiveness. Which made me feel truly valued as a patient. Atmosphere is wonderful as the office has dim lighting. I highly recommend this group to anyone in need of specialized care.
