Dennis Liebl: I don't know if you would call him a guru, but I am most fortunate to be seen by Dr. Neil E. Slatkin at the City of Hope I and my wife are most impressed by his knowledge of the treatment of Parkinsons Disease. I am not sure he is taking any new patients but it is worth a try. City of Hope 's Department of Neurology Parkinson's Disease Center (a National Parkinsons Foundation Clinical Center of Excellence) can be reached at (626)359-8111 ext 2859 . Another suggestion is Dr. Dale V, DiStefano who moved his practise from Downey, where I live, to Newport Beach. His telephone number was (714) 645-9996. Regarding a support group, I attend the Parkinsons Education Group of San Gabriel Valley which meets at 9; 30 A.M. on the first Friday of the month at the Presbyterian Intercommunity Hospital Auditorium , in Whittier. Have a great day. Al T.
