Yeah I know the struggle to find a good doc/therapist. I wasted a lot of money so far going to practitioners who do not get what we're going through.
I got a referral to a good PT from a doctor, I actually went to the same PT clinic several months before that, but had another therapist and didn't like him, he didn't really seem to understand the issues I had.
The other therapist that I got a referral to, was much better, she specializes in vestibular rehabilitation, even though her eye-tracking exercises didn't do anything for me, the neck exercises she gave me did help.
Maybe try calling around PT clinics and ask if they had any experience with head trauma/vestibular patients.
Another source of info might be a brain injury support website? We have one in our state and it lists some doctors on there that I assume are familiar with head trauma patients.
