capitalize headache clinic - dawn


Posted: Feb 01, 2010

woman with a long history of chronic daily headaches, failure of multiple treatments with a visit to the headache clinic of Michigan.

 

I am thinking--if it were The Michigan Headache Clinic

then it would be capital?

 

 

Michigan Headache Clinic - elaine

I would capitalize "Michigan Headache Clinic", but I would not capitalize "the" unless it were part of the official name.

I think I would probably capitalize "Headache Clinic" in your original sentence, since it sounds like the doctor is trying to denote an actual institution. (Probably Michigan Headache Clinic!)

thanks elaine, I get what you're saying - dawn
