The Specialist Should Not Be a Freeway Away
Most headache specialists practice down in central San Diego. From Carlsbad that is a long run on the 5, which is the last thing you want mid-attack. Haven puts the same level of care on your phone.
Why Carlsbad Needs a Virtual Headache Specialist
That is 35 miles and a stretch of I-5 that rarely cooperates. During a migraine attack, an hour in the car with hard sun and stop-and-go traffic can turn a bad day into a lost one. On top of the drive, a new-patient slot at a headache center can sit months out.
Haven removes the distance completely. You meet a headache specialist by video, usually within a few weeks, from your home in Carlsbad. We are in-network with TRICARE, which matters for the many military households nearby, along with major PPO and Medicare plans. When you need Botox or a nerve block in person, we line it up with a North County provider.

Meet your clinician and get your custom headache attack plan
Once they fully understand your health history, triggers, and what treatments you’ve tried in the past, your clinician will create a detailed headache attack plan. They’ll reference the most up-to-date research to recommend medications, lifestyle tips, and guidance that are right for you.
Track your progress as your symptoms improve
Haven will check in with you regularly to keep track of how you’re feeling and make note of new trends and triggers, so your clinician can continue to evolve and improve your treatment plan.
If needed, Haven will connect you with in-person care
Haven will refer you to trusted local providers for in-person procedures, urgent care and in-home rescue care, as needed.
