Cleveland Clinic's iMATCH Program Posted: 05-08-08 13:33pm


Has anyone been to Cleveland Clinic's iMATCH Program? I have very little time before I go to make a firm decision so I would appreciate any stories good or bad about your experience. Much thanks. -Kate

I don't have personal experience with this clinic and it's special program, but, you can look at this link: http://a nnsilverthorn.com/imatch_-_cleveland_clini c.htm What type of headache you have?

I saw that site. Not sure what I think about it. That is actually the reason why I posted this. I also posted it on the Daily Headache forum. You are the only one that has responded. I guess not many people have been there. I REALLY wish I had more info as far as people's experiences. I have Basilar Artery Migraines (with Complications) but I also have Cluster Headaches - which means what treats one is contraindicated for another. It has been a long road - 18 years (I am 27). I have been to U of M, MHNI, Mayo, Henry Ford, and now Cleveland Clinic. What has your experience been? -Kate

My family has used the Cleveland Clinic for other medical problems, including severe cardiovascular issues. I don't know if this will help, but we have found it to be a really wonderful place with compassionate, knowledgeable staff and have nothing but good feelings from it.

Cleveland Clinic has a wonderful neuroscience dept. and pain specialist. This may be a good option for you. Rush Medical Center in Chicago has some of the best neuro. people in the country. They may be able to guide you with your vascular headaches. I worked with some of these doctors. I would trust them to treat me and my family.
