Disclaimer
All treatments require a formal consultation with Dr Omarjee prior to any treatment. During this consultation, patients' concerns are carefully assessed, and a personalised treatment plan is developed. This includes discussing the nature of the proposed treatment(s), alternative treatments, potential risks and relevant complications, aftercare instructions, and the costs involved. It also allows time for patients to ask questions.
Medication is often used for migraine relief, but ongoing migraines may require further assessment to explore management options. Dr Ed Omarjee offers consultations for chronic migraine management, where you can discuss your symptoms, history, and possible approaches. He will also answer your questions so you can make an informed decision about whether treatment is suitable for you.
During a consultation with Dr Ed Omarjee at The DOC West Clinic in Hoppers Crossing (near Point Cook and Werribee) or at The DOC East Clinic at 47A Karnak Road, Ashburton VIC 3147, treatment options for migraine symptoms can be discussed.
What Is Involved?
A patient will need to have a medical consultation to assess their headaches, past treatments, and current treatments. A physical examination may also be carried out after the consultation. If the treatment is considered appropriate, the possible side effects, costs, and frequency will be discussed.
How Can Migraines Be Treated?
There are medications that may help ease migraine symptoms and provide pain relief. Some over-the-counter options are available for early signs, but these are usually considered short-term forms of assistance. Other prescribed medicines may be used to relieve symptoms or reduce the frequency of migraine episodes.
Pain relief medicines can sometimes be taken during a migraine episode to reduce symptoms, but they are not intended for frequent use. They may also be unsuitable for patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
Dr Ed Omarjee offers consultations to discuss migraine management. Any treatment options that may be suitable for you will be explained during your appointment, including their risks, costs, and aftercare.
What Is the Cost of Migraine Treatment?
The cost of migraine treatment will be discussed with you during your consultation.
Pricing can vary depending on factors such as:
- The type of treatment being considered
- The number of sessions required
- The areas being treated
- Any follow-up or ongoing treatments that may be recommended
