I go to the University of Rochester MIND Unit for my parkinson treatment. There are many doctors and neurologists there. The phone number and address is as follows: University of Roshester Medical Center Strong Memorial Hospital Department of Neurology Movemment and Inherited Neurologic Disorders (MIND) 601 Elmwood Ave. Rochester, NY 1-716-275-5130 I am 58 years old and was diagnosed with parkinson's in 1991. My main sympton is a tremor in my right hand/arm. Sinemet never helped the tremor. I currently take amantadine and a trial drug (pramopexole) that in combination help to control the tremor. But as always, everyone with parkinson's is different. I hope that this information helps with your father. John McCabe [log in to unmask]
