We recently moved to this area and are looking for a more geriatric friendly neurologist. Also, I am looking for a traditional support group. Is there anyone local to us?

The Cleavland Clinic has a nationally known center for Parkinson research and treatment. Use this link to see bios of some of the docs. I used the filter to find many that are in the dept. of neurological restoration at the Cleveland clinic main campus

The Cleveland clinic hospital is about 45 minutes from you but probably worth the trip.
Good luck and good health.
