Post by cloudywithsun on Sep 17^th, 2010 at 11:41am

Hi all. New to the msg board! We are looking for a Dr. in Vancouver that actually has some experience and knowledge of Cluster Headaches and was wondering if anybody else has had success in finding a great Dr. to discuss treatment with? Thank you so much

The 2002 OUCH Convention was in Vancouver. The guest speaker was Dr. Gordon Robinson, then of British Columbia General Hospital in Vancouver.

Our member Catlind shared a very good, timely review of his talk. :)

Dr. Robinson has extensive knowledge of clusters and is considered an expert in headaches overall.
A wonderful man and did speak at the OUCH conference in 2002. I've not been treated by him, I have a great doc here on the island, but I do recommend him.

When we had OUCH-Canada running he was our medical adviser. He would see many people on fairly short notice when they called and said they had clusters.

Here is his contact information:
604-875-5549

Good luck.
Doug

This is a prime example of how people here are there to offer any help they can when someone new or a veteran reaches out for some help, that is why I am so proud to be a part of this family. 8-)
