Featured Media Appearances
Dr Granot has been featured on national television discussing migraine treatment and Botox for chronic migraine. Watch his appearances on Channel 10 News and Channel 7's story about Botox treatment for migraine sufferers.

Why See a Neurologist for Your Headaches?
Many headaches are well managed by a GP. A neurologist adds value when headaches are frequent, complex, atypical or not responding — and is the specialist required to access the most advanced treatments.
The right diagnosis
Confirming the diagnosis and excluding other causes — and untangling mixed headache types, such as migraine layered with medication-overuse headache.
Access to PBS Botox & CGRP
PBS-subsidised Botox and CGRP therapies for chronic migraine require a neurologist's prescription. Dr Granot offers both.
Prince of Wales training
Trained at Prince of Wales — Sydney's leading headache and neurology centre — with thousands of patients managed and accredited Botox injecting.
A plan that persists
A structured, stepwise plan when first-line treatment has failed, with honest, evidence-based discussion of what each option can realistically achieve.
