Read MoreDr. Katayoun Omrani is amazing! I use to have at least 5 migraines a month. I am a single mom with very little help. So obviously this was not just about the excruciating pain of a migraine. But, I need to be able to take care of my toddler. I was becoming depressed and finding little hope. Dr. Omrani was so sweet and caring. As a migraine sufferer herself she really understands. She does BOTOX injections on me along with other methods, and it really helps. I am down to 1 migraine a month and sometimes less. I cant not say enough good things about her. She is just wonderful. I highly recommend her.

She is so caring and kind and always makes herself available to help via phone or text, even on evenings and weekends! She goes above and beyond what any other doctor does for their patients, and I should know given my myriad of health issues In particular, I suffer from terrible migraines and as a headache specialist, she has been able to give me the highest quality of treatment available. I recommend Dr. Omrani to anyone in need of a good doctor. She is simply the best!!!
