Dr. Reed Explains The Reed Procedure℠
Discover the Reed Procedure℠ with Dr. Reed. In the following video FAQs, Dr. Reed, the inventor of the Reed Procedure℠, answers many questions about the migraine treatment offered at US Migraine.
The Reed Procedure℠ - Overview and Key Points
“It’s a surgical implant for people with the worst headaches imaginable.”
Who is a Candidate for the Reed Procedure℠?
“The patient that is a good candidate for this procedure is having severe debilitating headaches. Nothing is working. The headaches are controlling their lives.”
What is the Trial Procedure?
“There are two steps involved in this treatment. The first is what we call a test or a trial stimulator. And that’s where we put in a temporary stimulator for a three-day period and allow the patient to see for themselves if it works.”
Can you walk us through the test stimulator process?
“In terms of how invasive it is, it is a procedure, but no surgical incisions are made. We liken the invasiveness of a test stimulator to an IV in your arm.”
When would the Permanent Procedure Occur?
“It requires a second trip to Dallas. Most of our patients come great distances, and we understand that. If you’re returning for a second trip, I assure you that you will be extremely happy. It means the test worked, and the patient will know this will change their life.”
How do I schedule a Trial, and does insurance cover the Reed Procedure℠?
“We work with virtually all of the insurance carriers, and it’s covered by Medicare.”
Can it restore a full and active life?
“You will have your life back. You will be back out with your family and friends. And there are no restrictions. You can do anything you want.”
Can I expect "Medication Free Migraine Relief?
“You’ll find that, for the most part, you will either not need medications, or your need will be dramatically reduced.”
Can the Reed Procedure℠ help relieve Auras, Nausea, Light Sensitivity, and Other Associated Symptoms?
“What we see in patients that respond to the trial stimulator; it’s not just the headache that responds. It’s everything. It’s the nausea, the vomiting, the light sensitivity.”
Is there patient support and follow-up?
“We follow our patients forever at certain intervals. We’re calling, emailing, checking up, and available to our patients 24/7.”
Can you share more about peer-reviewed research done on the Reed Procedure℠?
“There is an overwhelming abundance of peer-reviewed literature by top specialists and top institutions, virtually all showing positive results from the procedure.”
What would you like to tell potential patients who may be hesitant to contact you?
“For the consultation, there’s no obligation, there’s nothing to lose in just letting us talk to you about the procedure and going over how it relates to your situation.”
