047 Taking Care of our Veterans


The topic for our end of 2021 podcast episode is how the Veterans Administration in the U.S., services the needs of our veterans with Parkinson’s disease.  And it is good news for our heroes. Additionally, everyone can learn something from our speaker, Dr. Paul Larson a neurosurgeon. It isn’t just for our vets and their care partners, friends, and family. Listen to learn more about the VA program called PADRECC and cutting-edge research that has helped all of us. It played a key role in bringing us Deep Brain Stimulation surgery and some awesome neurosurgeons.  https://www.parkinsons.va.gov/index.asp https://neurosurgery.arizona.edu/profile/paul-s-larson-md-faans Thank you to my sponsor, Boston Scientific, the maker of Vercise Genus, a Deep Brain Stimulation or DBS system.

  1. Very interesting! It’s nice to know that our heroes who have Parkinson’s are so well cared for. As an individual who had DBS (twice) I am also happy to know that the PADRECC centers have done the largest research study in the world on the effects of DBS.
