Vertigo is often a symptom and not the root issue. Best to start with a PET SCAN of the brain to rule out more serious issues. If not possible MRI will work.

I already have a neurologist, MRI done and a lot of tests also done. I need a second opinion on my case, so I need a recommended neurologist who is good with this kind of problems, not to google for all the neurologists here.

I am also interested in good chiropractor if available here. I had a series of procedures 12 years ago in Russia, they call it ?manual therapy?, performed on my neck, it helped great and I had no problems until this point. The thing is that that Russian doctor was a friend of my friend, he had great reputation, so I said OK, I'll try. But I am really afraid to go to any chiropractor here or in any other country, since just one wrong push of a finger in a wrong place may give irreversible damage.

I am sorry to say again Gringo Star that there are some very good eye doctors in SD,there are some very good heart surgeons and general surgeons but ther is a great shortage of GOOD practitioners in specific fields and in my opinion you have need of two that are difficult to find . I have all my cancer operations done overseas where the equipment is more up to date and infection rates are lower .Similarly with hip or knee replacements . But if Plaza de Salud do not know of a good neurologist ,then you definitely have the best response
