Thanks John. You are my hero

As a doctor, I just used the Epley maneuver for the first time yesterday - on myself! Had a pretty severe case of BPPV and the maneuver was successful! Almost felt like a miracle. Thank you so much. What a legacy!!

I haven´t used the Epley maneuver for several years, but I needed it for a long time, and I remain thankful for Dr. Epley´s research and knowledge and contributions to medicine.
