profile
Dr Mark Weatherall MB BChir FRCP Edin sees adult patients (18+ ) at The Medical Chambers Kensington with neurological problems including headaches, migraines and other neurological disorders such as blackouts and epilepsy, TIAs, stroke, Parkinson's disease and MS. His main interests are the diagnosis and management of chronic or persistent headaches, facial pain and visual snow. He is a pioneer of new techniques of headache management such as greater occipital (back of head) nerve injections, Botox and CGRP antibodies, and is one of the very few Consultant Neurologists in the UK with genuine subspecialist interest and expertise in the management of headaches.
Since February 2018 he has been Consultant at Stoke Mandeville Hospital in Buckinghamshire. Prior to that he ran the Princess Margaret Migraine Clinic at Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust (Charing Cross Hospital) for 10 years. He trained in headache with Professor Peter Goadsby and Dr Holger Kaube of the Headache Gruop at the Institute of Neurology in London.
Mark says "I am interested in headaches of all kinds, from the common (migraine or tension-type headaches) to the esoteric (cluster headache and hemicranias of various varieties). I am particularly keen to help people with chronic headaches, who have often been given up on by previous healthcare providers. For these people, correct diagnosis and perseverance in exploring all treatment possibilities nearly always gets them better in the end. My approach combines the timeless virtues of compassion and clinical sense, with knowledge derived from cutting edge research in the neurosciences. Patients can expect to be well informed about their neurological condition, and all the options for a holistic but scientific approach to treatment."
Mark has published many papers in international medical journals and has spoken on these subjects at meetings of the International Headache Society, European Headache Federation and Migraine Trust, and the Association of British Neurologists. He also regularly provides expert opinion on headaches for newspapers as diverse as The Times, the Daily Mail¸ and The Sun, and radio programmes such as 'You and Yours', and 'Woman's Hour'.

My experience couldn’t have been more positive. Anyone who has a complex headache that has stumped other doctors would be wise to consult Dr Weatherall. He was warm and approachable, highly knowledgeable and right up to date with my rare condition. He explained his thinking and my options clearly and succinctly and formulated and agreed a plan with me. After being hospitalised for months and bed bound for years I left feeling huge relief and immense gratitude for his expert help.
