They're into research. Their reputation is mixed.
I have friends who've gone there (for migraines).
I hear they're trying Botox on certain headaches.
Even though you already have a CH diagnosis, they will
make you go through two days of extensive (and expensive)
tests, including psych profiles, to come up with the same
diagnosis. Some people seem satisfied with them.
I once went to a neurologist who had worked there; we were
in the same social circle and had met at a very fun party,
but once I entered his office he treated me like an imbecile.
So I've become prejudiced against that Institute, probably unfairly.
Good luck.
