Trusted directories to search:
- International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society directory
- American Parkinson Disease Association (APDA)
- Parkinson's Foundation Global Care Network
- Hospital websites for neurology or movement disorder programs in Atlanta
You can also call the Parkinson's Foundation Helpline at 800-4PD-INFO (800-473-4636). The operators can recommend a Parkinson's specialist from their database.
Other ways to find recommendations:
- Ask your primary care doctor for referrals to local specialists
- Connect with members of local Parkinson's support groups who can share their experiences
- Check major Atlanta medical centers' neurology departments
Movement disorder specialists have extra training specifically in Parkinson's and can make a real difference in your care. They're more likely to recognize subtle symptoms and know the latest treatment options.
Many specialists also offer telehealth visits, which can be convenient for medication adjustments and check-ins between in-person appointments.
