Dizziness Clinic
Kristen Steenerson, MD
Clinical Assistant Professor of Otolaryngology — Head & Neck Surgery and, by courtesy, of Neurology
Richard Baron, MD
Clinical Assistant Professor of Neurology & Neurologic Sciences and, by courtesy Otolaryngology - Head & Neck Surgery
Dr. Steenerson and Dr. Baron focus most of their energy on clinical care of patients with vestibular disorders that cause dizziness and imbalance. They are consultants, which means that they diagnose and help direct primary neurologists, ENTs and primary care physicians on how to treat a patient with dizziness in the long-term. Due to a large amount of dizziness and imbalance referrals, our wait times can be long; your patience is very much appreciated.
If you would like to make an appointment, please fill out the intake questionnaire below or call (650) 723-5281 to start the scheduling process. Depending on your response, you may be instructed to obtain more diagnostic testing, evaluation by a different physician or you may be directly scheduled. As the inner ear and brain are dynamic organs, we do sometimes need to repeat tests that have been completed before to make sure there has been no change.
