I am very excited to share this next podcast episode, Ask the Parkinson Expert- Take 6 for PD. On this episode, I asked the same 2 questions to all the Parkinson experts I interviewed in April. When I meet with many of my clients with PD, they ask me what can I do to decrease the progression of the disease? I was curious how others would answer this question. So, I asked Dr. Melissa McConaghy, Josepha Domingos , John Dean, Dr. Eric Rhoden, Dr. Becky Farley, Betsy Vierck, and Catherine Ross the same question. It was fun to hear everyone’s perspectives and definitely made me think differently.
I am also impressed with all the new emerging research on Pd, but it can be overwhelming. So, my 2nd question to everyone was what research are they following and what they would recommend others to follow that they feel can make a difference in people’s lives?
Throughout the conversations we had some overlapping themes, as well as new and different perspectives.
