Botox for migraines. Why can't my doctor put the injections into my 11s?

I asked my doctor if he could inject Botox for my migraines in my "problem" areas (my bad 11's). He said no BC he's not trained to inject in those areas. The Botox works wonders for my migraines, but I'd also like to get the full benefits of the Botox. He also said I can't go outside Kaiser to get Botox BC my body will eventually start to reject the medication. Can't he put the injections into my 11's so I can have the best of both works? I don't understand what training he needs? Thank you!!
