Title: Anyone know of a good Neuro in N. Houston area?
Post by K bogo on Jan 3^rd, 2003, 12:20pm

I am thinking of changing my Neuro and needing a good doctor in North Houston or the Woodlands/Conroe area. Any suggestions?
Thank you,
Kim

Hello Kim, go to the OUCH website (yellow link on the left) and when there prerss cluster help. There is a list of cluster friendly doctors there.

If you run into a good one, tell ouch. They need the info.

Kim, there is a man in the Medical Center, in Houston, who seems good (so far), his name is Andres Keichien and his number is 713-793-5220. He got us in the next day. Problem though: he is having surgery this month . . and is going to be out for awhile, sorry to say. His secretary Rose totally rocks too, she may be able to advise you.
Good luck!

Just posted elsewhere, but a Dr N.T. Matthew from the Houston Headache Clinic was one of those invited to the Rome Conference (this was an annual medical conference for eminent headache and CH specialists)

He must be worth his salt if he was there

Right now, my neuro is Ninan Matthew at the Houston Headache Clinic, but I am changing to the New England Center for Headache.

Matthews' is pretty good. Just decline when he suggests botox.

I am 23 and live in north west Houston. I go to the Kelsey Seybold clinic and see Dr. Arana...he's the head of neurology. He has helped me a lot, he has me on Lithium, verapimil, and O2, which has helped me a lot. But being chronic, I still have at least one attack a day. Recently, it's been about 3 a day average with an O2 abort time of about 20 minutes. Of course, I have never seen another Doctor since I was diagnosed in 1999. Even though he has helped me a lot, I am still taking steps to contact Dr. Psilocybin. I heard he is the man to see. A friend of a friend has contacted him and found his lab. Soon I will be introduced and him and I will have a long conversation about my future and how we are going to permanently shut the door on the beast. I hope you find relief and what you are looking for. .....did I just post, that's not like me....ok, I'll go back in my corner and keep an eye out for the man.
