Med School Café - Expert Advice for the Community

Last week, Dr. Elizabeth Minto, assistant professor of neurology at the University of South Alabama College of Medicine and a neurologist with USA Physicians Group, presented the February Med School Café lecture. The lecture, titled "Migraine: Diagnosis, Treatment and Prevention," had a total of 50 attendees.

During the talk,  Dr. Minto discussed the diagnosis of migraine; current evidence on causes and mechanisms; treatment strategies and common pitfalls; and ways to prevent migraines, including both medications and some alternative therapies that have shown evidence of success.

The next Med School Café lecture will feature Dr. Donna Bennett, assistant professor of obstetrics and gynecology at the USA College of Medicine. The lecture will take place March 19, 2014.
