Objectives: This study assesses patient satisfaction with current treatment and the expectation of treatment and physician’s role.

Conclusions: Like adults, pediatric headache patients want rapid, complete relief of headaches. Lack of side effects or ease of use are lower priorities. They also want to be taught by their doctor how to effectively eliminate their headaches and have a better understanding of their treatment plan.
