Florida Balance Centers, Inc Acupuncture Integrative Medicine

I suffered with vertigo for several years. It was so bad that I fell twice. When I take the med prescribed , I would not be able to get out of bed for an entire day. I was also unable to drive to see my mom as I would be so sick. Finally my ENT sent me to Florida Balance Center. Tom was very knowledgeable and experienced with the vestibular and balance treatment. I was very impressed. Esther was kind and helped to ease my anxiety.. Well the treatment was so successful as it has been over one year since my last treatment and I am doing very well. Thanks to Tom and Esther. Forever grateful. I highly recommend anyone suffering from vertigo and dizziness to Florida Balance Center. You will never regret it.

I was skeptical about going the first time. My nerves almost got the best of me. But I honestly am so glad that I went. I was so scared that being dizzy was my new way of life. That is not the case. I felt so comfortable there. They made me feel so comfortable and confident. I had tried exercises at home and it made it worse. But within a few of being there and him guiding me I was already feeling better. Fast forward to my second visit, I woke up thinking, oh I’m fine now, should I even go back? I am very relieved that I did. This is something you have to commit to for your own well being. I did a couple exercises today and to my surprise I didn’t do them as well as I should’ve. I am going to stick with it! They do such an amazing job for people here! There was a man there who graduates tomorrow. He was doing exercises like a pro. I said to him wow you’re a pro he said I didn’t start out this way. Keep up with it. Sorry this is getting long but most importantly, if you are even considering going, do it! They will help tremendously! Thanks guys

I was so dizzy and lightheaded almost every day from vertigo. The care I received at this center gave me hope I would feel better eventually. The exercises helped me and I felt so much better the more I did them. Dr Patullo & Esther are very caring with all their patients. I highly recommend this center to anyone with vertigo or balance disorders. You will be glad you did!

I've been going to Tom once a week for a little over two months. I I have made very good progress with my balance and “drop-foot” issues. I have found Tom to be very knowledgeable with a pleasant approach. He is willing to give so much time to me that I sometimes have to limit him. I have gone to therapists for other issues and they push you out the second your time is up. He always goes above and beyond. I think that shows how dedicated he is. His staff is attentive and very friendly as well. Overall, I recommend Florida balance centers completely. Five Stars!!!

Outstanding staff and service! Esther at the front desk was extremely personable and made the process seamless. I had an MRI with my orthopedic doctor who recommended I go through a nerve block procedure of the facet joint. I was not to thrilled about going through that type of procedure and preferred something more invasive. To be honest, I was reluctant about acupuncture since I have 4 herniated disc's in my neck. After three sessions with Tom, my pain was GONE! I can honestly say, it is the best therapy I have gone through in my life. I actually went back for a lingering back pain that I've had for years not related to my neck and he successfully treated that as well. I HIGHLY recommend that you schedule an appointment and go see Tom. It will be the best decision if you are actively in pain.

I absolutely love Tom and recommend Acupunture to all my friends. I discovered acupuncture last year after a car accident. I was rear ended pretty hard and ended up with a herniated disk and 2 bulging disks in my neck. I had a major headache everyday for literally 3 months! I was going to physical therapy and chiropractor as recommended but wasn’t feeling any better. I get nauseous on pain killers so I didn’t want to take them and the doctors next recommendation was an epidural injection in my neck...yikes! I decided I did not want that and that I would try something else first. Talking to a friend, she recommended Tom! In 2 visits doing acupuncture, my headaches were totally gone! I was so impressed and so thankful to be feeling better. Tom is super professional, very kind and so knowledgeable. He answered all my questions and made me feel very comfortable during every visit. The year before I also had an accident where I slipped and fell on stairs. That left me with a broken tailbone (coccyx). Tom was also able to relieve my lower back pain and inflammation around my tailbone with acupuncture. I highly recommend him! His staff is excellent and they are always very accommodating and welcoming. Go see him! You’ll be so happy you did.

Best vestibular therapy and acupuncture. I was treated at FBC for dizziness in the past and I was for more than 7 years without any symptoms. Tom is very knowledgeable and caring in what he does and Esther a good complement for the treatment, they make a great combination

For years, I had felt like I'd been walking on a boat, running into walls and all sorts of other awful symptoms that my doctors couldn't figure out; it took Tom Patullo 10 minutes to see I was suffering from a vestibular disorder, which was later confirmed by an ENT. What a blessing the Florida Balance Center is! I finally have my life back! Tom and his entire staff are whip smart, patient, kind and everybody's personal cheerleader. After three decades, he's seen it all and retrained it all, so have hope. I also love the confluence of the therapy with acupuncture — made a huge difference in my recovery! Thank you Tom and team, it's not overstating it when I say you completely changed my life!
