Brief Summary

Consultations for vertigo in general practice are difficult, primarily due to practitioners' lack of experience. Patient referrals can be inaccurate, leading to missed opportunities or misuse of resources. The creation of a diagnostic aid flowchart that provides referrals will improve patient care and reassure general practitioners during consultations for vertigo.
