How do I register and join the network?

Thank you for your interest in joining Dizzy Care Network! At this time, we are accepting clinicians from limited geographic areas and with specific expertise. If you have not been invited to register with us, please fill out our pre-registration form to help us confirm your eligibility.

To register, please complete the steps below. Reach out to our support team if you have any issues or need additional guidance.

Begin the Registration Process

Thanks for your interest in joining Dizzy Care Network! Our mission is to connect individuals with dizziness with the optimal clinician based on technology developed at Mayo Clinic. The health questionnaire and algorithm identifies symptom clusters and then matches them to the appropriate tests to rule in or out a diagnosis that you will make during your evaluation. Please let us know if you have any questions. Start the registration process by clicking the Next button on the introductory page.

1) Enter Clinician Information

This first section focuses on your personal information, which will be used on your clinician profile.

Name: Fill out your first name and last name in their respective boxes. These will be shown to your patients.
Designations: List your designations as you want patients to see them.
Email (personal): We ask for your email so that we can contact you during and after the registration process. The email you add should be a personal email. Dizzy Care Network is clinician-based, not clinic-based, so the account should be able to move with you as you progress in your career.

2) Enter Clinic Information

This information should be for the clinic that you currently work at. Patients who match with you via Dizzy Care Network will be seeing you at this clinic. You will be able to change this information later if you move clinics or start your own.

Clinic Name: Please type in the full name of your clinic. This information will be shown to patients.
Address: We ask for the address of your clinic so that we can match you to nearby patients.
Email: If your clinic has a specific email that patients can use to contact or schedule with you, please type it in to this box.
Phone (Work): Please share the phone number for your clinic.
Website: We will not accept links to Facebook or blog pages. This link should be for your clinic and clearly have the company name in the URL. The link should also direct users to the main landing page of the website.

3) Enter Scheduling Information

The information you type in this section will be shown to patients once they have matched with you.

Scheduling Instructions for Patients: Please type in clear and concrete instructions that tell you patients exactly how you would like them to schedule an appointment with you. Here is an example: “Call our office at [phone number] to make an appointment with [clinician name]. Mention that you were matched using Dizzy Care Network.”
Scheduling Link: If you have a specific URL that patients should use to schedule with you, please paste it into this box. This should not be a general landing page.

4) Enter Insurance Information

This section asks about the insurances that you accept. Patients will be able to see this information as they make their selection.

Please make sure each company or plan is on a new line.
If you accept multiple plans from the same company, they should all be listed on their own lines with the company name first.

5) Enter Discipline and License Information

You will be asked to select which discipline you hold a license in. This information will be visible to patients.
