Attendees of this special episode of Dr Gilbert Hosts will meet an inspiring group of people with PD and care partners, who are working to bring hope and community to Black and African American individuals with Parkinson’s disease (PD). Register now for this American Parkinson Disease Association (APDA) webinar, taking place on Wednesday, March 22, 4pm PT.

Dr. Gilbert’s guests will be a group called the PD Movers, who have developed an educational guide designed specifically for the Black and African American community.
