Register today for a two-part virtual program for people within three years of a Parkinson’s disease (PD) diagnosis and their family members. Our belief is that an overview of PD, education, and support at this key stage can empower you to better navigate and thrive in the journey ahead. The online program will be on Thursday, June 18 and June 25, 6-7:30pm. Anyone living in Northern or Central California may join. Stanford and non-Stanford people are welcome!
In this overview of Parkinson’s disease, learn about:
- Building your healthcare team
- Exercise, physical therapy, and other treatments
- Common symptoms (mobility, sleep, constipation)
- Medication management
- Coping strategies for living with PD
- Community resources
Speakers include Hengameh Zahed, MD, Stanford movement disorders specialist, and other Stanford healthcare professionals, including a social worker and physical therapist.
We welcome anyone in Northern and Central California, whether being seen at Stanford or not.
To encourage open discussion, we will not be recording this program.
Please share information about this program with newly-diagnosed people and their families, your physician, and other healthcare professionals.
