Dr. Pearce is honored to serve on the Board of Directors and the Executive Committee for the Maine Medical Association, and she had a great weekend at the Board of Director’s Retreat in Manchester. She reported back: “time spent with this excellent group of docs is fun, productive, educational, and purpose-driven. We got a lot done! You have to be the change you want to see in the world. We also did a great painting activity to use the right side of our brains, I might have a new side hustle!” 🎨

Dr. Pearce aimed to represent Maine artists, particularly women, on the gallery and mural walls. We will share more about the whale mural soon! 🥳🥰🐋🎨👩‍🎨

At PearceMD, we evaluate, diagnose, and treat the MANY causes of dizziness. A high percentage of our dizzy patients are second (+) opinions who have not found answers elsewhere.

This post by Vestibular Disorders Association (VEDA) nicely demonstrates that balance symptoms are often multi-factorial and complex with many layers to "unpeel". We are not deterred by complexity; we are here to help!

Our MD, PA, and PT at Fyzical Therapy & Balance Center - Falmouth have undertaken specialized training on this complex topic and we understand the physical, emotional, and quality of life ramifications.

If you or a loved one suffer from balance or dizzy issues, we would love to help you find answers, relief, and hope.

What causes dizziness and vertigo? Causes of dizziness, vertigo, and disequilibrium can be hard to identify, but can indicate a problem in your vestibular (inner ear) system. They can result from a peripheral vestibular disorder (a dysfunction of the balance organs of the inner ear) or central vestibular disorder (a dysfunction of one or more parts of the central nervous system that help process balance and spatial information). Although these three symptoms can be linked by a common cause, they have different meanings, and describing them accurately can mean the difference between a successful diagnosis and one that is missed.
