Neurology - Headache
Headache is defined as pain in the head and upper neck, which locations are the more common areas of pain in the entire body, having many causes. Because so many people suffer from headaches, and with treatment often difficult, the Headache Clinic at the University of Utah strives to understand the specific diagnosis more completely, enabling us to provide better and more effective treatment regiments.
Our physicians, physician assistants and medical staff combine extensive experience, compassion and the latest technology in addressing your health care problems due to headache. We provide inpatient and outpatient treatments for all headache disorders.
