Migraine Surgery Specialty Center

Had a great experience with Dr. Lowenstein! He performed occipital nerve decompression (migraine surgery) for my daily chronic headaches that had prevented me from being able to sleep, exercise, study, work or have any kind of consistent daily schedule and I am happy to say that I had relief pretty much immediately. The staff was kind and patient throughout the entire process and helpful with any question I had and really made my mom and I feel so comfortable. After the surgery he goes over what he found compressing the nerves which only assures you even more that you made the right decision. I'm still in the recovery process and my life has already changed so much for the better and I had the first month of my life in years with only 3 minor headaches that went away with an Advil. I cannot recommend this surgery and specifically this doctor enough if you are suffering with chronic migraines/headaches!

Dr. Lowenstein is an extremely skilled and compassionate surgeon. I highly recommend him to anyone suffering from migraines. My 20 year old son has suffered with debilitating pain/migraines for the past 7 years. He has been in constant daily pain that entire time, the only thing that would relieve his pain was weekly nerve blocks and even those would only reduce his pain for 1-2 days. He wasn't able to attend school in person or get a job. He has missed countless family/friend events and has missed out on so much of his childhood and teenage years. He has greatly suffered physically and mentally/emotionally for years. We found Dr. Lowenstein during a google search and he has completely changed my sons life and future. My son had nerve decompression surgery from Dr. Lowenstein for supratrochlear neuralgia. He woke up from surgery completely pain free and remains pain free for the first time in 7 years! Dr. Lowenstein is a very knowledgeable and skilled plastic surgeon who took great care during surgery to address my sons issues and alleviate his pain, he also created an incision that would heal with minimal scaring. Dr. Lowenstein's pre and post surgical care was very thorough. He is very conscientious with his patients care and well being. He took greats steps to avoid any complications or infections and my son had an extremely smooth recovery due to these efforts. The entire staff at Dr. Lowenstein's office were amazing and such a pleasure to work with! We felt supported and informed throughout the entire process. Crystal, the office manager, was the first person I interacted with when I called. She was so nice and helpful. Christina, the patient coordinator, was very empathetic and supportive to what we were going through. She was very knowledgeable about the surgery and she walked us through each step of the process, even helping us find a hotel to stay at. Christina was very helpful and organized and made me feel like we were in good hands. Jodi and Shelley were my sons nurses, they were so caring and compassionate and really made us feel at ease and well taken care of. Jodi called us several weeks before the surgery and went over everything in detail and answered all of our questions. Jodi was my sons nurse the day of surgery and she really helped calm our nerves. She kept in contact with me before and after the surgery which I really appreciated. When I was overcome with joy and tears after seeing my son pain free Jodi was there to share in my excitement. My sons anesthesiologist, Cory, was very reassuring and professional, we instantly felt comfortable and safe with him. We had Shelley during our consultation and post op appointments. Shelley genuinely shared in our joy and was so supportive. My son and I both felt like he was in great hands with everyone at Dr. Lowenstein's office and that we had made the right decision to move forward with his decompression surgery. This surgery has been life changing for our entire family and we are forever grateful to Dr. Lowenstein for his expertise and his passion to fight for those suffering from migraines and nerve pain. Dr. Lowenstein was thrilled with my sons outcome and so compassionate. I highly recommend Dr. Lowenstein and his staff to anyone suffering from migraines. Dr. Lowenstein is doing very important work and I hope that this surgery will become more well known in the medical community so that more people suffering can find relief like my son has.

Dr. Lowenstein and his team at the Migraine Surgery Specialty Center are amazing! My experience under their care was very positive. I highly recommend Dr. Lowenstein. He and his team gave me the highest standards of care. Dr. Lowenstein is very personable, professional, knowledgeable and made me feel at ease. I traveled from out of state for my bilateral occipital nerve decompression surgery. They were able to accommodate to my needs based on my travel plans. Recovery was very smooth. I’ve had amazing results thus far. Dr. Lowenstein followed up to answer any questions and to be sure I was healing comfortably. If you are considering Dr. Lowenstein and migraine surgery, I highly recommend their team! I am so glad I did!

Dr. Lowenstein and his staff are amazing! I live in New Mexico and suffered from occipital headaches since 2017. I saw a local neurologist and pain specialist, tried and failed all the typical migraine medications, Botox, nerve blocks, and ablations. It wasn’t until I met Dr. Lowenstein that I finally felt like someone was actually listening to me about the types of chronic daily headaches I was having. My quality of life was nonexistent until I had nerve decompression surgery. The surgery revealed the exact pinpoint cause of my headaches that no medication would have ever corrected. Dr. Lowenstein made no promises to me, but he gave me my life back! 3 months out from surgery and I’m doing better than I ever anticipated! Thank you Dr. Lowenstein and Team!

Amazing facility with amazing staff. I got migraine surgery by Dr. Lowenstein. I am 4 weeks post op and on day 20 of no pain! I went from 3-4 migraines a week at least and had exhausted all other medical avenues. This surgery has saved my life. I am forever grateful to the team. Everyone was so supportive and thorough. Christina is nothing short than amazing. She works so hard, makes sure all is in order and walks with you every step of the way! Thank you for putting up with my millions of questions! -Leah
