Have you or a loved one been recently diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease (PD)? Are you adjusting to life several years into PD? Do you need help finding a physician or a support group or managing your medications?
Call (800) 457-6676

Our toll-free helpline/email service – staffed by a team of information specialists – can:
Answer your questions about Parkinson’s disease, symptoms, treatments, complementary and alternative therapies and the latest scientific studies reported by the media
Help you to find local support groups in your area, physicians in your neighborhood that specialize in Parkinson’s disease and similar conditions, and financial, legal and other resources to help you live well with PD.
Each specialist provides a sympathetic voice and ear, with an understanding of the challenges you may be going through. If we can’t answer a question, we’ll find someone who can. While this does not replace the relationship you have with your physician, we can help you prepare for your visits or provide advice when you cannot reach your team of healthcare professionals.
