BioDr. Alice Huai-Yu Li is an anesthesiologist and pain management specialist at Stanford Health Care. She is also a clinical assistant professor in the Department of Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine, Division of Pain Management at Stanford University School of Medicine.

Dr. Li specializes in headache and facial pain conditions, offering advanced, personalized care for patients with complex and often debilitating pain syndromes. Her clinical expertise spans a wide range of disorders, including migraine, trigeminal neuralgia, cluster headache, temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMD), and other forms of craniofacial pain.

She collaborates closely with her colleagues in neurosurgery, otorhinolaryngology (ENT), neurology, dentistry, and oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMFS) to ensure comprehensive and coordinated care. With this interdisciplinary approach, she works with each patient to help them feel better and improve their daily life. This includes creating a tailored treatment plan with healthy lifestyle modifications, prescription medications, and targeted procedures.

Dr. Li’s research focuses on finding better ways to treat migraines and facial pain and improving care before and after surgery for people who live with chronic pain. She uses imaging tools, such as ultrasound, to predict how well certain treatments will work. Her research also includes developing small devices that can be placed in the body to relieve pain without major surgery. In addition, she studies how artificial intelligence can help diagnose different types of headaches and facial pain.

Dr. Li has authored more than a dozen peer-reviewed publications and has presented her work at national and international conferences for organizations including the American Academy of Pain Medicine, the American Society of Anesthesiologists, and the North American Neuromodulation Society.
