Welcome to DizzyCare Academy
The DizzyCare Clinic's solution to the vestibular skills gap.
Dizziness is a common problem which can be surprisingly debilitating and life-altering. However, there exists a large skills gap that prevents patients from being correctly diagnosed and successfully treated. Therefore, there is an urgent need for front line clinicians to equip themselves with the skills needed to identify and treat common vestibular disorders.
This is where DizzyCare Academy comes in.

Our Reviews
Giorgia
I really enjoyed the vestibular training course and its relevance to my clinical practice. I believe the NHS service users would greatly benefit from more healthcare practitioners being competent and confident in vestibular assessment and treatment. This course made me consider specializing in this field and surely triggered my curiosity to expand and deepen my knowledge. Great introductory course for clinicians that don’t have a strong foundation on the topic.
I liked the delivery, it was clean and interactive – I particularly found helpful the practical/ hands on time and producing our own flow chart to reorganize the complex information just received to help internalize it and improve my confidence.

The enhanced DVRT course was very well delivered and very informative throughout. There was a good balance between practical and theory.

Rationalized approach, well presented course material. Unique teaching style. Professional ethics well maintained.
Tsitsi
Brilliant course. Grateful to learn and know that something can be done to address dizziness in patients ... exposure to patients experiencing dizziness previously left me helpless and in despair as I couldn't help these patients. Now I am excited to practise and then hopefully help the next patient I meet experiencing dizziness.
