Improving the lives of migraine & headache patients with fast access, expert care, and compassionate support
Pennsylvania Headache Center (PHC) is a non-narcotic migraine and headache specialty clinic, now proudly serving Exton and all of Chester County. Our practice is completely patient-centric. Our mantra is:
fast access - new patient appointments available within 15 business days
expert care - you always see the doctor
compassionate, unhurried support - new patient visits last 60-90 minutes and return visits last 30-45 minutes.
PHC was founded by Dr. B. Lee Peterlin, a fellowship-trained (Dartmouth) and board-certified headache medicine neurologist (United Council of Neurological Subspecialties). PHC operates as a direct pay practice — a model that removes insurance companies from the care process so that your treatment decisions are made by you and your doctor, not a claims department. While PHC does not bill insurance directly, we provide you with a superbill that you can submit to your insurance for out-of-network reimbursement at neurologist rates. Additionally, your insurance can be used for any prescribed medications, laboratory work, and imaging.
Dr. Peterlin is dedicated to improving the lives of migraine and headache patients through compassionate care, education, and research. If you are searching for relief from headaches behind the eyes, headaches with nausea or light sensitivity, migraine with nausea, neck causing headache, daily or near-daily headaches, Dr. Peterlin can help. She treats the full spectrum of headache disorders — including migraine, chronic migraine, cluster headache, cervicogenic headache, post-traumatic headache, and neuralgias — using both pharmaceutical and evidence-based, non-pharmaceutical therapies. In-office procedures include Botox for chronic migraine, nerve blocks and neuromodulation. New patient appointments available in 3 weeks or less. Call today to begin your journey to relief: 717-745-6223.

“Dr. Peterlin changed my life! I’ve struggled with severe migraines for almost 20 years, trying every medication available and ended up in the emergency room regularly because of the migraines. I struggled with depression, fear of leaving home and social withdrawal. After finding Dr. Peterlin and the Pennsylvania Headache Center, my migraines are finally under control and manageable. I feel like I can finally live my life again!”

Mission and Vision
To improve the lives of headache patients through compassionate care, education, and research.
To support research and continued medical education to better treat our patients using evidence based medicine (EMB*) as defined in the British Medical Journal in 1996 by Sackett and colleagues.
*Note: EMB is "the judicious use of the best current evidence in making decisions about the individual patient. The practice of EBM means integrating clinical expertise with the best available external clinical evidence from systematic research." -Sackett et al (BMJ 1996)
