I got in and have an appointment next week. I wanted to know if anyone had been and how they liked it. Their website is great and I hope to get some better treatment than I have gotten by the quacks in the past! I will post after next Tuesday and let everyone know how it was!!!

Surprised at the lack of response to your question. I can only say that I think Robbins' book on headache is the best I've found (the $45 one mentioned on his site).

I used to work a few blocks away from him. I was curious, so I walked into his office once. But he wasn't taking patients. Didn't get to find out if he's worth his salt. His book is pretty good.

Lack of response to this is pretty wierd, especially considering all the "I'm screwed by CH" listings. I'd SWEAR he was at one of the past Cons.......and folks met him.......(well before my time). Bob J speaks highly of his books. Have we no takers in this area, if for nothiig else than to rate the man in your own opinion? Hand in your wallet and cough, RJ

I went to Robbins, saw his associate Baskin and he gave me some medicine that gave me a very painful headache, that only lasted a few seconds, He then said, if that doesn't work, I've got 30 more options for you. Would you like a waffle cone with that sir? *No offense intended, Tom K, just an early morning attempt at really bent humor.

No offense taken. I have to watch it now cuz I'm on the Pred and can be a complete , just ask Bob! They helped me and at this point after 21 years, I'm happy that someone will actually listen to what I say and give me a bunch of options to get relief. If I have to go back 20 time and try 20 different meds, it is worth it to me, because they are trying their best to help with something that is in a very very small amount of people. It is taking all of my energy to be postive during this cycle, so I am being extra open minded about what they are saying.
