Understanding real\u2010world diagnostic and treatment pathways can identify care gaps and guide interventions.

The most prevalent diagnoses were vestibular migraine (VM, 50.6%), benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV, 36.0%), Meniere's disease (26.9%), persistent postural\u2010perceptual dizziness (PPPD, 20.9%), and vestibular neuritis (VN, 21.6%). VM overlapped with BPPV (44.8%), PPPD (31.0%), and Meniere's disease (27.6%). Patients consulted an average of ~15 providers, underscoring the combined effects of participation bias, diagnostic overlap, and fragmented care pathways characteristic of vestibular conditions. Symptoms, triggers, functional impact, provider involvement, and treatments were broadly similar across diagnoses. Logistic regressions revealed that\u00a0VM was associated with frequent headaches, spontaneous vertigo, and frequent nausea\/vomiting (ORs 24.70, 21.07, 5.58;\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.003, 0.02, 0.036), Meniere's with dietary improvement (OR 38.00;\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.016), PPPD with VM overlap and visual\u2010induced vertigo (ORs 6.83, 0.02;\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.03, 0.02), and VN with the lowest frequency of autonomic symptoms (OR 0.00006;\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.005).\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Interpretation<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The findings reveal a complex clinical landscape of vestibular disorders marked by multiple diagnoses and barriers to effective care. Overlapping symptom profiles across disorders further complicate diagnostic accuracy. Although regression analysis confirmed diagnosis\u2010specific features, neither provider involvement nor treatments aligned consistently with diagnoses, highlighting fragmented care pathways. These findings call for clearer diagnostic pathways, enhanced provider training, and coordinated multidisciplinary care to improve diagnostic accuracy and treatment for vestibular disorders.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/acn3.70334","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,19]],"date-time":"2026-02-19T04:08:09Z","timestamp":1771474089000},"page":"1602-1618","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Vestibular Patient Journey: Insights From Vestibular Disorders Association (\n                    <scp>VeDA<\/scp>\n                    ) Registry"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5578-9668","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ali","family":"Rafati","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurology Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine  Baltimore Maryland USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0000-5502-4411","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sami I.","family":"Nassar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology \u2013 Head and Neck Surgery Medical University of South Carolina  Charleston South Carolina USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0664-4571","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Shaun A.","family":"Nguyen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology \u2013 Head and Neck Surgery Medical University of South Carolina  Charleston South Carolina USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Patricia L.","family":"Gerend","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Vestibular Disorders Association (VeDA)  Portland Oregon USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5975-374X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Michael C.","family":"Schubert","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology \u2013 Head and Neck Surgery Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine  Baltimore Maryland USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Michael T.","family":"Teixido","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology University of Pennsylvania  Philadelphia Pennsylvania USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Frederick A.","family":"Godley","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Association of Migraine Disorders  North Kingstown Rhode Island USA"},{"name":"University Otolaryngology  Providence Rhode Island USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Joel A.","family":"Goebel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Vestibular Disorders Association (VeDA)  Portland Oregon USA"},{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology\u2010Head and Neck Surgery Washington University School of Medicine  St. Louis Missouri USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Cynthia A.","family":"Ryan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Vestibular Disorders Association (VeDA)  Portland Oregon USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3902-6203","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Habib G.","family":"Rizk","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology \u2013 Head and Neck Surgery Medical University of South Carolina  Charleston South Carolina USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3630-3949","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Amir","family":"Kheradmand","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurology Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine  Baltimore Maryland USA"},{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology \u2013 Head and Neck Surgery Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine  Baltimore Maryland USA"},{"name":"Department of Neuroscience Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine  Baltimore Maryland USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,18]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","first-page":"473","volume-title":"Vertigo: Epidemiologic Aspects","author":"Neuhauser H.
