The center is a multi-discipline location serving the region by providing easy access to a variety of specialized providers under one roof. Our providers include Physicians, Vestibular Therapy, Physical Therapy, Audiology, Dietician & Nutritionist, and Psychology & Counseling.

How You Benefit
The Asheville Balance and Vestibular Center helps you get correctly diagnosed and treated faster by having medical professional in all of the necessary disciplines working together on your behalf. In many cases, people who experience symptoms such as vertigo, seek the help of a family physician. Usually, the physician will either prescribe medications (read more about Meclizine) or refer you to a specialisit (like an ENT or physical therapist) for further diagnosis, treatment, or referral. All of these may be correct, but often end up being a hit-or-miss approach and you (the patient) can end up with large expenses for multiple visits and prescription costs.
"The Asheville Balance and Vestibular Center improves your diagnosis and treatment time, and lowers your costs by having provider partner specialists who can determine the most efficient and effective plan of care, because we work together on your behalf." Dr. Kim Fox, PT, DPT, Advanced Vestibular Therapist |
