Balance & Vestibular Testing

Balance and vestibular testing assesses the inner-ear and balance systems to explain dizziness or unsteadiness, and to identify patients at risk of a fall.

When It Is Typically Used

Dizziness — Testing separates inner-ear causes from blood pressure and medication effects.
Fall Prevention — Identifying a balance problem early helps prevent injury.
Medication Review — Results are read alongside the medications you take.

Working Alongside Other On-Site Services

Assessment is coordinated with blood pressure monitoring, since drops in blood pressure are a common cause of lightheadedness.

What to Expect

Testing is non-invasive and performed in the office. Bring a list of your current medications.
