Clinical Care
Body
Our Parkinson's Disease & Movement Disorders (PDMD) program cares for patients collaboratively to create individualized care plans. Your care team includes neurologists, physiatrists, physical and occupational therapists, speech language pathologists, advanced practice providers, nurses, and many others. Together, we see patients in a variety of ways, but always with a shared goal of optimizing your outcomes and improving your function.
The interdisciplinary PDMD team approach of our clinic focuses on your best outcome at the forefront of all evaluations and plans. Patient care assessments and plans are made in real time, and clinicians meet with each patient to develop an individualized treatment plan to address your specific goals and make recommendations for next best steps. Our translational model utilizes research studies and the most current data to drive our approach and the variety of team members allows us to assess your individualized needs.
