Introduction The goal of the DALLAS HEADACHE ASSOCIATION is to provide the diagnosis and treatment that will help headache sufferers regain a better quality of life. The DALLAS HEADACHE ASSOCIATION is a diagnostic and treatment facility which focuses on providing comprehensive medical care for headache patients. Headache is one of the most common health issues which challenge physicians and other health care professionals.  Over 45 million people in the United States suffer from debilitating headaches.  Unfortunately many headache sufferers spend much time going from doctor to doctor in search of relief.    The DALLAS HEADACHE ASSOCIATION offers a wide range of multidisciplinary services for patients who may not have responded to prior treatments.  The diagnostic and therapeutic protocols used at the DALLAS HEADACHE ASSOCIATION are evidenced based with consensus – drawn guidelines.  The care of each individual patient is a team approach integrating clinical experience and current available data to provide optimal treatment for the headache sufferer. As a specialized headache center for headache management we offer a range of therapies for the most complex and disabled patients.  Some of these individuals include: Patients who have not responded to medications and have a history of recurring acute care needs or progressive persistent headache. Patients who have undergone multiple diagnostic and therapeutic interventions and in whom the diagnosis remains uncertain or questionable. Patients who have had frequent emergency room visits, who have used hospital inpatient services excessively, and who have overused different oral analgesics, including opiates, or who have been treated repeatedly with intramuscular or intravenous medications. Patients in whom comprehensive services are essential to address the multifunctional components of the headaches. The founder and director of the DALLAS HEADACHE ASSOCIATION is Dr Stuart B Black, a neurologist who has had extensive clinical experience in the treatment of headache and related neurological conditions.  Working with Dr Black is a team of experienced professionals also dedicated to implementing the most effective treatment for each headache patient. THE DALLAS HEADACHE ASSOCIATION is also involved in clinical research projects focused on improving the treatment of headache patients.
