Stanford Fellow to Answer Questions about Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) Surgery at online DBS Support Group, June 18

June 17, 2020 By Parkinson's Community Help

Daniel Kramer, MD,  Stanford Neurosurgical Fellow and clinical instructor, Neurosurgery, will participate in a question and answer session online on Thursday, June 18, beginning at 3:00pm Pacific Time. The event is free, but pre-registration is required.

Stanford’s Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) Support Group meets quarterly (March, June, September and December). The group is open to anyone who would like to learn more about DBS as a treatment option for Parkinson’s. The group leader maintains an email reminder list for the group. You may sign up for this and other email lists here. We also have extensive information about Deep Brain Stimulation on our webpage as well as DBS stories from those who have had the procedure and wanted to share their experiences.

Here are the online support group details:
