Center for Interventional Headache Medicine at Interventional Neuro Associates
CSF and Vascular Headache Clinic
Two specialists. One visit. One plan.
Headaches with a pressure or vascular cause often get worked up in pieces. A headache visit in one office, the imaging read in another, a procedural opinion months later, and nobody holding the whole picture.
This clinic puts those pieces in one room. A headache specialist and a neurointerventional physician review your imaging together, see you on the same day, and agree on a plan with you before you leave. Any testing or treatment that follows stays within the same practice, with the same team following you through it.

If you need more than a visit
If further testing or a procedure is needed, it happens within the same practice. Your headache care continues afterward with the same team, so the plan doesn't get lost between offices.

For referring physicians
Send us the patient whose headache has an imaging or pressure question attached. Both physicians see the patient on one visit. You receive a joint written evaluation with a clear answer and a plan, and routine care returns to you.
For patients with IIH, we treat the headache. Vision stays with the patient's ophthalmologist.
