Patient Feedback

Samy diagnosed me with PPPD after I started to feel dizzy and very anxious. At times I felt I was leaning to one side when walking. The dizziness and anxiety I felt was stopping me from taking part in normal activities with family and friends and was affecting all aspects of my life. Samy was always very calm and encouraged me to take part in the exercises he set, so I felt able to continue to make progress. He also gave me advice on how to cope with the stress and anxiety I felt linked to the dizziness. Gradually I felt better and I now feel I have the understanding and tools to help myself. I would not hesitate to recommend Samy to anyone who is experiencing dizziness. Thank you Samy.

Having suffered from Menieres for over a decade, I had been experiencing the last 2-3 years with vertigo episodes. Having seen various consultants and treated for BPPV and steroid injection for Menieres, I was recommended to see Samy who with his help and guidance has completed helped me control the vertigo with diet, lifestyle and vestibular rehab in that I haven't had a single episode in over a month, from a frequency of at least once a week. Thank you!!

Samy was the first to diagnose this condition - promptly, too - after I had spent more than 20 years suffering from vertigo and interacting on and off, somewhat unsuccessfully, with over-stretched NHS consultants and their clinics. He instigated dietary and lifestyle changes, and provided me with valuable physio exercises. After four sessions, I was feeling a lot better, and well on the road to coping with any attacks, which had reduced in frequency and severity during my time under his expert care.

Very good so far no more vertigo, great help with my neck problem too thanks

So relieved when my doctor suggested that I needed to go to the Dizzy Care Clinic. I was becoming desperate with my balance because of Vertigo. Samy visited me and started me on the road to recovery very quickly. A caring, kind person whose contact details I will keep in case I should have further problems in the future. Thank you

After being diagnosed with Vestibular Migraine, i decided to contact a Vestibular physiotherapist for treatment. I found Sammy on the web. Sammy knew exactly what i was going through and after suggesting some changes in lifestyle and diet and completing a number of vestibular rehabilitation exercises i am now able to carry out normal day to day activities and return to work. If you have any vestibular issues i recommend you to contact Sammy as he is an expert in this field. Thank you Sammy for all of your help.

“I’ve had a few sessions with Samy and I already feel much clearer about the way forward. He was very thorough, knowledgeable, and caring. I now have an accurate diagnosis of 3PD and Vestibular migraine with clear steps for the future.” 

Title: Miraculous Recovery of Vertigo through Video consultation. Thank you, Mr Samy. My father is 67 years of age living hale & healthy in a small town Salem, Tamilnadu, India. On Saturday morning at 5 am (13/08/22) he had an acute bout of wild dizziness accompanied by vomiting and head spinning. The same day he went to a local emergency department where he went through extensive investigations for heart and brain issues but luckily they all came out clear. The physician who examined him at the emergency noticed nystagmus (abnormal eye movements) and diagnosed him with BPPV and advised bedrest and prescribed generic Dizziness medications.

My dad's symptoms did not improve and he lost hope of living a normal life again. We couldn’t bear to see him suffering from vertigo and we were desperate to help him. Through word of mouth, we came to know about Mr Samy, a vertigo specialist at the DizzyCare Clinic in the UK. We contacted Samy and he returned our Whatsapp call on the same day even though it was a weekend and offered my dad an appointment and saw him through the Whatsapp video call. Considering how even the face-to-face consultation at the emergency care and all the investigations did not help get rid of my dad's dizziness, we did not have much faith in the effectiveness of the remote consultation. However, to our surprise, Samy not only diagnosed my dad correctly with a BPPV (he explained it was a lateral canal cupulolithiasis, not a common type of BPPV) but he also successfully cured this condition just after one treatment.

Let me elaborate a bit more details on how Samy helped my dad get rid of his vertigo. Firstly, Samy asked for details about my dad's symptoms and the movements that brought his symptoms on or made his symptoms worse. Following this, he guided my dad to undergo an eye movements examination and a series of positional tests while he was observing my dad through the video. I helped my dad to do the tests while my auntie (Chithi) was holding the phone in position for Samy to observe the tests. Apparently, Samy was looking at my dad’s eye movements during the tests. Certain positional tests made my dad dizzy while others were not that bad. At the end of the examination, Samy explained to my dad about his findings in a simple language so that we all can understand what was causing my dad's vertigo. He also explained the treatment procedure /steps that he will be doing to help get rid of my dad's vertigo. My dad was very keen to get the treatment done immediately, therefore, Samy proceeded to treat him. Samy Guided my dad with the treatment procedure and I helped my dad to do the movements and I assisted him.

The whole treatment lasted less than 10 minutes. My dad felt a huge relief after the session. And he followed the post-treatment instructions as recommended by Samy for 24 hours. My dad’s vertigo completely resolved the following morning. And Samy’s review later that day confirmed the cure of my Dad’s BPPV. It was good to see my dad again in his oldself and he is now back in his active life again without the fear of a vertigo attack.

We, as a family, thank Samy from the bottom of our hearts for making my father normal from the disabling BPPV. We also Thanx God & for the technological advancement that connected closely the patient and the specialist in a virtual world. The distance doesn’t matter anymore. Once again thank you Mr Samy & continue your good work.

God Bless You.

I am so greatful to have found Sammy to help my dad recover. With Covid as well he was in quite a bad way so having an online appointment was brilliant. The exercises were introduced at a good pace for my dad. Right from the beginning I felt a sense of ease and confidence that finally somebody knew how to help. Over four months, with fortnightly meetings my Dad had improved from a shuffling, stooped posture and staying indoors to walking upright and out doors. It's a fantastic transformation. I highly recommend him. Thank you again, Jocelyne & John Knight.

I had been suffering with vertigo symptoms on and off for 2 years wrongly diagnosed as BPPV. Via online sessions Samy quickly diagnosed my condition as Vestibular Migraine and gave me a treatment plan that worked. I am now back to normal and symptom free. I cannot thank Samy enough for his help and support.
