    This doctor and office wasted a half a day of OUR lives. But it's all about the doctor's time that…read morematters, isn't it? I would not go to this doctor if I had raw meat and fire ants in my ears. Had an appointment. Drove 2 hours because our house burned down and was staying far away. My husband and 3 dogs drove with me, because our 2nd car burned down, too. I was on time, walked in and they told me that Voelker was at a conference. The check in woman said I was the 2nd person the scheduler told the wrong month to. Check in woman felt really bad and said she would talk to Voelker and see if she could move up the appointment and do a zoom since I already had tests done elsewhere and I was heading out of state at the end of the month because, again, our house burned down. The office is an absolute mess. Was called so many times about rescheduling - never spoke to the same person twice. After they said Voelker would do zoom, then a new person called me said she would not. Around and around I went. Ultimately, Voelker would NOT move up the appointment. Not a nice person. Cannot recommend with a white hot passion.

    Dr Courtney Voelker is arguably the best physician/surgeon I have seen in quite some time. She did…read morea very delicate ear procedure and the results were beyond my expectation with none of the possible side effects. Along with her colleague, audiologist Dr. Rebecca Lewis, they make a fantastic team. In reading other reviews about some long wait times, because they work at a large HC institution with a robust patient base, sometimes you may need to wait a bit, but that's because she doesn't rush through appointments and is thorough in explaining your situation and answer your questions. She is compassionate, encouraging and gets to know her patients. I whole heartedly recommend her and the entire team.

    I am 57 years old otherwise healthy man with a history of sleep apnea. I am married and have 2 kids…read moreat college. Since 2001, I had visited multitude of Doctors and Surgeons and had multiple procedures to my Neck and throat to treat my condition, all of which had some temporary relief. I had visited 6 or 7 sleep disorder specialist up and down the West coast. I was fortunate enough to finally meet Dr. Eric Kezirian, early 2015. From the get go, it was all about what was right for my specific condition, all kinds of tests and findings. Dr. Kezirian always explained the procedures, and the office staff the associated costs. No surprises. Dr. Kezirian and his staff (even though they didn't have to ) went through a grueling 18 months battle with my insurance company to try and get me approved for the Inspire device and even worked harder to help me find sources that would offset some of the costs associated with my surgery. (Not quite sure how but at some point I received a letter from the Congress in Washington, ordering my Insurance Company to approve the Inspire Device for me. I imagine Dr. Kezirian and his team had a lot to do with that !) I have now had the device for over a year, and my sleep apnea is well under control. The Good Doctor and his team have been a life saver, and I cannot say enough about his exceptional approach to patient care. Thank you all at the Keck School of Medicine for all that you have done for me and my family thanks you.

    I left my appointment here today in tears…read more I'm 35 and seven weeks out from a traumatic brain injury that resulted in loss of smell. I came to this appointment hoping for a thoughtful rhinology evaluation, a careful review of my imaging, and an evidence-based discussion about what recovery might realistically look like. I scored 7/40 on the UPSIT, which was already difficult enough to process. What upset me far more was the way the prognosis was communicated. I was told that recovery from traumatic smell loss is "very, very, very, very rare," that smell training is primarily helpful for viral smell loss, and that my cribriform plate had essentially "razored" my olfactory nerves. Those are extraordinarily frightening things to tell someone who is only seven weeks into recovery, particularly before my actual imaging had been meaningfully reviewed with me. I am a clinical scientist. I do not expect physicians to give false reassurance, and I am fully capable of hearing difficult medical information. What I do expect is precision, context, and acknowledgment of uncertainty when the underlying injury cannot actually be seen or confirmed from the information available. There is a tremendous difference between discussing possible mechanisms of traumatic anosmia and speaking as though irreversible nerve destruction has already been established. I came in looking for medical guidance. I left feeling as though a permanent outcome had been pronounced over me. Patients with brain injuries are already dealing with an enormous amount physically and emotionally. The language used in these appointments matters. You can be scientifically honest without removing every ounce of hope from someone who is still very early in recovery. I'm seeking another opinion.

    I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Pearce and her team. I am incredibly grateful for…read moreeverything they have done for me. When I first found the Dizzy & Vertigo Institute, I was completely lost and terrified. After experiencing two bouts of vertigo, my entire world turned upside down. My anxiety (which I had struggled with for many years) was through the roof. I constantly felt like I had this gravitational pull, was unsteady all the time, and honestly felt like I was losing my mind because I had no idea what was happening. I had seen two different ENTs, and both told me, "It's just BPPV. It should go away soon. Give it a couple of months." But no one could explain the constant gravitational pull, the swaying, or the feeling of instability. I was left without answers or guidance, and I became desperate. Finding Dr. Pearce was truly life-changing. During one of the scariest and lowest points of my life, Dr. Pearce gave me something I desperately needed: hope. She not only gave my condition a name, PPPD, but she also told me that it could be treated. At a time when I couldn't imagine ever feeling normal again, her confidence and optimism became my guiding light. From my very first consultation through every follow-up visit, I was treated with kindness, compassion, and genuine care. Dr. Pearce never once made me feel like my symptoms were "all in my head" or that I was overreacting. She listened, validated my experiences, and made me feel truly seen. Little by little, day by day and month by month, I began to improve. There were times when I felt more like myself than I had in months. And whenever I experienced a setback, Dr. Pearce was there to reassure me, adjust my treatment, and help me move forward again. I always knew I had someone in my corner, and that support made all the difference. Eventually, I reached the point where I "graduated" from treatment, and I was so excited. A few weeks after my last visit, however, I suddenly began feeling unstable again. The swaying returned while I was sitting and even when I was trying to sleep. Although I was doing my best to stay positive, the symptoms continued to worsen. As soon as I spoke with Dr. Pearce, she got me in quickly, reassessed my symptoms, and gave me a new treatment plan. Once again, it worked. I felt like myself again. One of the biggest lessons I've learned is that PPPD can have ups and downs, and I may experience symptoms again in the future. The difference now is that I'm no longer afraid. I know what I'm dealing with, and I know I have Dr. Pearce's expertise, compassion, and unwavering support to help me through it. Dr. Pearce didn't just help treat my PPPD, she gave me my confidence, my hope, and my life back. I will be forever grateful to her and her entire team. If you're struggling with dizziness, vertigo, or PPPD and feel scared or alone, I truly cannot recommend Dr. Pearce and the Dizzy & Vertigo Institute highly enough.

    After months of feeling disoriented with no solution, I decided to bite the bullet and contact the…read moredizzy and vertigo institute, and I am so happy that i did. To start, in March of 2025 I experience my 1st vertigo episode after waking up to a spinning room. I wasn't sure why it happened but after going to a PT she reported I have BPPV, used the epley maneuver and sent me on my marry way. The only issue is that every month, like clock work I kept having vertigo symptoms, waking up in the middle of the night to the room spinning. I have gone to several ENTs with the same stupid response "take medication, you just have vertigo." As someone who likes to believe they're more holistic, I did not accept that as an answer. I just felt like something must be off. While it was an investment I am so happy I found DVI and Dr. Pearce. She is a literal angel and exactly what I needed at the time!! Finally, a doctor that was able to look at the whole picture and not gaslight me to believe that I am just 32 years old with a bad case of BPPV, crystals flying out of my ear every 3 weeks. She tailored a treatment plan just for me, and supported me though further investigation, including blood work, and looking at the neurology of my brain. I learned that my history of migraines and hormonal imbalance may have continued to vestibular migraines. While it was an overwhelming process with ovarian cysts and learning I have endometriosis in the background of it all, I can say that I was able to find peace in this health journey. The spinning has stopped happening in the middle of the night, I do not feel like I'm on a boat the majority of my life, I am not triggered by a spinning washing machine, or a car passing by, and I sure as heck feel like myself again. If you have the ability to see this treatment through, I highly suggest giving Dr Pearce a shot. Getting the whole picture rather than being gaslight and thrown medication at, was worth every penny!
