 Dr. Desmond Releases New Informational Handbook

 Our clinic director, Alan L. Desmond, Au.D. has recently completed his latest publication. Its’ title is Dizziness  
 Reference Guide (DRG), and is published and available through Micromedical Technologies, Chatham, IL  
 (www.micromedical.com) .The guide is designed for Primary Care Physicians, but it may be helpful to anyone 
 suffering from dizziness or balance disorders as it has several informational patient handouts included.. Below  
 is a description from the preface of the DRG

 How to use the Dizziness Reference Guide (DRG)
 The DRG is intended to be used as “quick access” to information when seeing a patient complaining of  
 dizziness. There are many different sensations, with many different causes, that a patient may describe as 
 “feeling dizzy.” The most common causes of dizziness are covered, but there are many causes of dizziness that 
 are not covered in this guide. The goal of the DRG is to increase efficiency and accuracy, and minimize time 
 spent gathering pertinent case history information and disseminating patient educational information.
