Evidence-Based Migraine Management

Dr. Addie Peretz, serving as Clinical Associate Professor of Neurology & Neurological Sciences at Stanford University, has established herself as a leading authority in headache and facial pain treatment. Following her medical education at New York University School of Medicine and internship at Georgetown Medical Center, she completed both her neurology residency and specialized fellowship in Headache and Facial Pain at Stanford University, where she now combines clinical excellence with groundbreaking research. Her expertise encompasses a wide range of neurological conditions, including occipital neuralgia, trigeminal neuralgia, and specialized nerve block procedures, while maintaining an active role in clinical trials for innovative headache treatments. As a dedicated educator, her teaching excellence has been recognized with the Robert S. Fisher Teaching Award for her outstanding contributions to neurology resident education at Stanford. Her research initiatives focus on understanding the biological mechanisms of migraine and chronic daily headaches, contributing significantly to the field through studies on epidural patching outcomes and cerebrospinal fluid leak treatments. With over a decade of experience in the medical field, Dr. Peretz continues to advance headache medicine through her clinical practice at Stanford Hospital, where she combines patient care with research to develop more effective treatment approaches for complex neurological conditions.
