Words From Our Patients

After 3 1/2 years of finding no relief from my headaches and after many scans, various doctor's appointments, physical therapy, food diaries, mattress/pillow modifications and exercise, a friend received an advertisement from Dr. Belaga's office and passed it along to me. He was my last hope, I wanted to give up. I called, made the appointment and was greeted by friendly staff and a caring and compassionate doctor. He listened intently and determined where my headaches where coming from and gave me Botox shots in the shoulder, neck and forehead. Within days I could see light at the end of the tunnel, relief was on it way. HEADACHES vanished!!! He set up a treatment plan to see him every 3 months for additional shots in the same area. This was my second visit and what a blessing.. Thank you Dr. Belaga for being there when I needed you.
Kathryn R, Benicia, CA"I would be remiss if I didn't take time out of my schedule to acknowledge the great care I have been receiving from Dr. Gary Belaga."
I have suffered from migraines since childhood and promise you, have sought treatment from THE BEST headache specialists in this country. There is nothing I haven't tried, except Botox. My headache specialist in PA, told me to give it a whirl. I found Dr. Belaga, and immediately LOVED him. Not only is he a skilled Neurologist, but he is articulate, understands the sensitive nature of this disease state (doesn't think we are crazy and should just go for a psych evaluation), and has a bedside manner that most MD's could learn from!
Blake C., San Francisco, CA"Fantastic! Dr. Belaga is a miracle migraine worker."
