The American Institute of Balance Audiology Extern Opportunities
The American Institute of Balance Audiology Externship Placement:
The American Institute of Balance, based in Largo, Florida, was established in 1992 by Dr. Richard Gans. AIB has had 50 externs to date. Our highly specialized practice focuses entirely on vestibular and balance disorders. Our reputation as leaders in the field allows students to gain valuable experience in interprofessional collaboration with physicians and allied health care professionals in the greater Tampa Bay area. AIB provides the full range of neurodiagnostic vestibular assessment for patients across the lifespan with a strong medical referral base and interdisciplinary approach to patient management.
To apply as an AIB extern, please fill out the following survey and email the following application materials to c.coppola@dizzy.com - 1 Letter of intent / Cover letter - 1 Resume - 3 Letters of Recommendation sent directly from your references (submitted directly from faculty members and/or clinical supervisors via email; at least two of the letters must be from previous clinical supervisors) - Graduate Transcripts from each graduate institution attended (may be official or unofficial)
AIB MatchMe Program:
As the world's leading educational facility for neurodiagnostic vestibular assessment and management, AIB has partnered with >120 doctors in over 32 US states to establish and grow some of the strongest vestibular programs across the country. These practices have been trained and advised by AIB to maintain the most current evidence-based, scientifically robust neurodiagnostic vestibular clinical protocols. Many of these sites offer externship placements with a range of experiences in addition to vestibular diagnostics.
When students apply to the AIB MatchMe program, our staff will provide the student with a list of externships that fulfil their clinical interests and geographic preferences. AIB will help the student facilitate contact with the externship sites. Once the interview process is complete and a student recieves an offer and accepts a position, the student is invited to AIB headquarters to a week-long training, taught by the senior staff at AIB. The student will then join their practice for the rest of their externship year!
Note: While all practices are encouraged to follow the ACEN recommended guidelines (seen here), AIB cannot guarantee these recommendations are followed. Once you are matched, please check with your prospective sites to remain on-time with your application process.
