Elizabeth M. Chandler, ANPBC MS| Headache Medicine, Neurology | MedStar Health
About me
Elizabeth Chandler, CRNP, is a nurse practitioner who specializes in neurology and focuses on care for patients with headache disorders. Her clinical specialty is treatment of migraines, cluster and tension headaches, facial pain, and post traumatic headaches—conditions that can cause tremendous discomfort while also impacting a patient’s day-to-day functionality and overall quality of life.
Ms. Chandler utilizes a wide variety of treatment options including oral medications, supplements, injections including Botox for treatment of chronic migraine, infusion therapies, neuromodulation, and physical therapy. She is involved in clinical trials focusing on headache disorders and has participated in patient advocacy events to raise awareness and increase funding for treatment and research.
Patient education and engagement are important to Ms. Chandler. She is committed to helping every patient understand their medical diagnosis, the benefits of pursuing treatment, and how lifestyle modifications can help minimize the frequency and severity of painful episodes. Her ultimate goal is to deliver patient-centered care by listening intently and helping each patient live comfortably and fully, despite their medical condition.
