Don't believe the "positive propaganda" of the on hold music of these liars. They don't care about the patients they see. They only care about the money that is collected. They will refuse to see you if you miss appointments - even if it is due to having a heart attack!!!! I wish there was a way to leave a zero star rating because they don't even deserve a single star!!!! It is a very sad day when the doctors of this world become as bad or worse than the corporate snakes slithering in the grass!!

I feel like God sent me to Dr. Head. I’m a traumatic brain injury survivor and I suffer from migraines. My first neurologist after my incident gave me a good medication regimen but he stopped taking my insurance. My PCP finally sent me to Dr. Head. My migraines returned and Dr. Head was able to figure out a way to stop them. I love his personality and I am very happy to be his patient!!!!

Husband's MRI showed mini stroke. Dr. Head looked at MRI explained where the artery was that caused the problem. Also gave husband recommendation related to his diabetes to minimize the risk of another stroke. Did not say - you need more tests or it's important that I see you again for follow up like some doctors might. He thought it was unlikely for a another occurrence if diet and exercise were added to life style. Several people in reviews said they felt him rude. We did not feel this way - he was direct with us, wasn't 'rushed' and we were totally satisfied with him.

Dr Head is awesome - we may not have figured out my exact path to feeling better, but he is on top of things and always searching for more answers!

I had my fingers crossed that my head shaking was nothing serious. Dr head diagnosed me with a neurological tremor and suggested Botox injections. I have them every 90 days and they have changed my life. I was fortunate that my primary care physician recommended him. He did say that this injection does not help everyone. I hope if you are reading this that it would help you but depending on your exact diagnosis results may very. I sure would recommend an evaluation if you want to find out once and for all.
