The Presidential
Headache
Since I established the first comprehensive, private headache clinic in the U.S.
in 1972, there has been a proliferation of both headache clinics and the number
of practitioners dedicated to headache medicine. In a previous publication
(Headache Clinics, published by Associates in Medical Marketing, 1980-1983),
which I edited, we featured different headache clinics and practices. These issues,
however, were geared for health professionals.
That earlier project engendered the idea that a similar series would be
appropriate for inclusion in HeadWise™. In future issues, we will continue
featuring various headache clinics and practices dedicated to the headache
patient. It is our hope that these articles will provide our readers insight into
both the various sites providing headache care and also the various approaches
to headache management.
This inaugural article features the Mount Sinai Center for Headache and Pain
Medicine in New York City. Its director, Mark Green, MD, is a member of the
Board of Directors of the National Headache Foundation. The staff physicians
at the Center have all contributed to HeadWise™, and have moderated chat
rooms which are available on our website, www.headaches.org.
