Feeling dizzy with sudden spins when turning in bed or looking up? You’re not alone; this common inner ear issue affects millions and is rarely serious.
Hearing a constant sound in both ears can feel unsettling, but bilateral tinnitus is common and often linked to hearing changes, stress, or sound exposure rather than serious disease.
Chronic unsteadiness or oscillopsia in dim light? Bilateral vestibular failure is a recognised condition often linked to ageing or medications, manageable for most, not typically ominous.
Sudden hearing loss, dizziness, or tinnitus with fatigue? Blood disorder symptoms affecting the inner ear are common and usually treatable, and they are not typically a sign of something serious. At Harley AVM, we address them effectively.

Episodes of vertigo, ataxia, or imbalance lasting minutes to hours? Episodic ataxia type 2 is a manageable genetic condition affecting coordination, which is not typically dangerous.
Genetic hearing loss often runs in families and may appear at birth or later in life, progressing slowly over time. Many people live full, active lives with care.
Glue ear commonly affects children and adults when fluid collects behind the eardrum, causing muffled hearing or pressure. It settles with time and treatment.
Facial rash with ear pain, hearing changes, or vertigo? Herpes zoster (Ramsay Hunt Syndrome) reactivation is common, especially post-50, and usually treatable, not a serious long-term threat.
Hyperacusis makes everyday sounds feel uncomfortably loud or overwhelming, often without causing ear damage.

Dizziness, vertigo, or balance problems after concussion? These symptoms are common and usually resolve with targeted rehab, not a sign of something serious.

Persistent dizziness without spinning? PPPD is a common vestibular disorder triggered by prior events, manageable with targeted therapy, and not a sign of serious illness.

Hearing rapid clicking or tapping noises can be unsettling, but typewriter tinnitus is often linked to nerve irritation rather than serious disease.

FAQS
Your Audiovestibular Questions,
Answered
Got questions? We’ve answered the most common ones below. If you have any further queries, our team at Harley Street Audiovestibular Clinic is here and happy to help.
What is Audiovestibular Medicine?
Audiovestibular Medicine is a physician-led speciality dedicated to diagnosing and managing disorders of hearing and the inner-ear balance system. It focuses on non-surgical, evidence-based care for conditions like chronic dizziness, vertigo, ringing in the ears, sound sensitivity, and complex hearing disorders. AVM specialists understand how audio and vestibular systems connect with neurology, ageing, and daily functioning, offering patients accurate diagnosis, long-term management, and improved quality of life through tailored treatment plans.
What Audiovestibular Services Does Your Clinic Offer?
Our clinic provides comprehensive medical diagnostics and personalised management for hearing and balance disorders. Core services include advanced hearing assessments, inner-ear balance evaluations, tinnitus profiling, dizziness diagnostics, guidance on vestibular physiotherapy, and long-term rehabilitation strategies. We assess both peripheral and central vestibular influences and manage complex cases requiring integrated care. Patients receive structured follow-up support, lifestyle-aligned therapy pathways, and precise clinical insight led by expert specialists practising at Harley St Medical Area.
What Makes The Audiovestibular Services at “Harley AVM” Unique?
Our clinic stands apart through medically led, integrated AVM expertise, assessing hearing and balance as connected systems rather than isolated symptoms. We combine advanced diagnostics, root-cause investigation, personalised management, and rehabilitation-driven care for chronic or complex inner-ear and neuro-vestibular conditions. Patients receive tailored therapy pathways, clinical precision, multidisciplinary guidance, structured follow-ups, and human-first care planning. Our approach redefines patient outcomes by merging medical insight with long-term, quality-of-life-focused support.
Who Can Benefit From Audiovestibular Services at Your Clinic?
Patients who experience persistent ringing in the ears, sound sensitivity, progressive or complex hearing loss, recurring vertigo, imbalance, or unexplained chronic dizziness benefit most. We support individuals requiring non-surgical diagnosis, inner-ear clinical insight, rehabilitation guidance, or long-term symptom management. Complex cases overlapping auditory and vestibular dysfunction, migraine-linked dizziness, or neuro-otological influences are carefully assessed. Our specialists design customised care plans and therapy pathways to restore clarity, comfort, and stability for everyday life. An Audiovestibular Physician (AVP) is a medical doctor who specialises in Audiovestibular Medicine.
Are You an ENT Clinic?
We are not a surgical ENT clinic. Our clinic is dedicated exclusively to Audiovestibular Medicine, focusing on medically rigorous, non-surgical diagnosis and management of hearing- and inner-ear-related balance disorders. Our core work remains advanced clinical diagnostics, chronic condition management, vestibular therapy pathways, hearing rehabilitation, and holistic patient support. Our team blends auditory and vestibular medical expertise to deliver precise, specialist-first care.
Why is Early Diagnosis of Hearing and Balance Disorders Important?
Hearing and balance disorders can worsen subtly, affecting safety, confidence, communication, work, mobility, and emotional well-being. Early AVM diagnosis identifies underlying inner-ear or neuro-vestibular causes, preventing misdiagnosis and long-term decline. Patients receive timely medical management, therapy guidance, and rehabilitation planning, reducing complications like falls, anxiety, or worsening auditory strain. Early detection leads to better stability, stronger treatment outcomes, improved daily functioning, and long-term quality-of-life benefits guided by expert clinic protocols.
