Hi, alll Just wana share the following information I got from the net with u. Thanx Farley [log in to unmask] > Parkinson surgery centre: If you're considering surgery, choose an institution that has been involved in research and specializes in the procedure you want. It should provide you with a neurologist who specializes in Parkinson's, and a neurosurgeon experienced in the procedure. Four of the most-active centers are: The University of Colorado at Denver (303-270-6927); New York's Columbia University (212-305-5779); Johns Hopkins (410-955-8795); and Emory University in Atlanta (404-727-4085). Colorado and Columbia are recruiting patients for a fetal tissue transplantation study funded by the National Institutes of Health. Johns Hopkins and Emory are known for their work in thalamotomy and pallidotomy. Other prominent centers include New York University Medical Center, Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, The Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN, and Loma Linda University Medical Center in Loma Linda, CA..
