Neurologist Or Nurse Practitioner – South Puget Sound Neurology And Integrative Headache Center

Practice Overview

South Puget Sound Neurology and Integrative Headache Center is a headache‑predominant specialty clinic serving patients throughout the South Puget Sound region. Our practice is grounded in compassionate, whole‑person care, recognizing that patients with chronic migraine and headache disorders often arrive after years of unmet needs.

We prioritize listening, continuity, and thoughtful clinical decision‑making. Patients are treated as individuals—not as diagnoses or productivity targets. Our model allows providers the time and support needed to deliver meaningful, evidence‑based, and integrative headache care.

In addition to migraine and complex headache disorders, we also care for a select population of patients with dystonia and related movement disorders, particularly those requiring therapeutic toxin injections.

The clinic is currently physician‑owned and independent. As we grow, we are thoughtfully exploring the evolution to a multi‑physician ownership structure while remaining committed to physician‑led care.

We are seeking either a Neurologist (MD/DO) or a Nurse Practitioner with interest in headache medicine to join our collaborative outpatient practice. This role offers specialty depth, procedural care, and optional involvement in research and mentorship.
