How Headaches are Assessed at Pure

We listen to you.
We look beyond the symptom.

Headaches can have many different causes and contributing factors. That is why we take the time to understand the full picture before making recommendations.

APPOINTMENT 01

Understand the problem

We start with a detailed consultation and examination.

  • This is where we take the time to understand your headache pattern, your health history, your concerns and your goals.
  • Your doctor will assess the areas that appear clinically relevant and gather the information needed to build a clearer picture.
  • Imaging if the doctor determines they are required
APPOINTMENT 02

Findings & recommendations

Understand the findings and talk through the next steps.

  • Findings appointment included in the $117 fee.
  • Your second appointment gives us time to review what we found, discuss any relevant findings and explain what they may mean for you.
  • No assumptions. No one-size-fits-all plan. Just thoughtful recommendations based on what we find.

Care recommendations depend on your individual assessment. Our team can answer questions about fees and coverage before you book.
