Boston Doctors

Has anyone seen either of these doctors at Mass Eye & Ear - Richard Lewis or Adrian Priesol? After months of PT with a specialist in Waltham my husband has been referred by Steven Rauch to either of the two above doctors. I know Dr. Lewis is well known, I have not heard about Dr. Priesol.

@BHMaloney deals with Priesol. Says he’s very straight forward and scientific. I was actually thinking of going to him as well, since I can’t get a hold of my neurologist after I leave their office at Yale University.

I’ve heard both are good doctors. I’ve seen Dr Lewis, he diagnosed my MAV… I like him - very pragmatic about things. I’ve only been for consultations though, it’s too hard to get to Mass Eye and Ear regularly.

I’ve also heard good things about Dr Priesol. This is who my ENT had referred me to actually, I ended up seeing Dr Lewis because he had read my initial test results earlier.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR RESPONDING! I think seeing either one will be fine. It seems they are involved in the same research etc. Hope this helps my husband!

Hi - I also live near Boston and Hope you could send me some resources for doctors in the area who specialize in this. I have only been able to find one VM specialist and have an appt for March 2024. I need help now!

Thanks

I’m in Florida, so won’t be able to help much with docs in your area :slightly_frowning_face: . It took almost 4 months for me to get my first appointment, and I live near a teaching hospital. My neurologist doesn’t specialize in VM or migraine, I think, but he did prescribe meds that may be helping. In the meantime, this site has been a lifesaver. The supplements have helped a lot (though I’m currently enjoying a weather-induced VM episode, it’s much milder than the standard day used to be). Reading Beh’s Victory over Vestibular Migraine helped a lot. Reading success stories helped. I like information, so reading through the research forum on this site has been useful, at least for the sense of control that some knowledge provides.

there really needs to be a list of doctors who specialize in neurogenic dizziness/MAV/VM…its really hard to find a doctor that specializes as there is no information online
