The number of Americans living with Parkinson's disease is estimated to be about 930,000. There is currently no cure for this neurodegenerative disorder, but medications, exercise, and diet changes can help manage symptoms. While a diagnosis of Parkinson's disease is unquestionably upsetting, "you can still live many years without a disability," says Yale Medicine neurologist Sule Tinaz, MD. Patients at the Yale Medicine Movement Disorders Program have access to the most advanced treatments and clinical trials for Parkinson’s disease. Their symptoms are thoroughly assessed before doctors create a treatment plan that will give them a good quality of life for as long as possible. Clinicians also understand that effective care goes beyond medication and surgery. Each doctor at the practice devotes considerable time to educating patients and caregivers.
