Headache Fellowship

Headache is the most common chief complaint presented to neurology. Even though over 39 million people have migraines in the U.S., there are fewer than 600 UCNS-accredited headache medicine specialists, which results in high demand for fellowship graduates. Graduates have excellent opportunities in a field that combines the best of neurology, women’s health, family practice, and procedural interventions.

Our Headache Medicine fellowship is a one-year UCNS accredited program available to graduates of U.S. neurology residencies, where fellows receive extensive clinical training in the evaluation and management of headache disorders. The primary educational setting is a supervised outpatient continuity clinic. Education and didactics focus on history and physical exam skills specific to headache patients, diagnostic evaluation, and therapeutic management.
