Beyond the Diagnosis: Managing Changing Symptoms

After several years of good symptom management, controlling Parkinson’s disease may become more challenging. In this program, participants will learn how Parkinson’s symptoms may change over time and new strategies, services and rehabilitative therapies for treating them.

This program will feature Parkinson’s disease experts:

Dr. Muhammad Nashatizadeh, MD

University of Kansas Medical Center, a Parkinson’s Foundation Center of Excellence

Brittany Knebel, M.S. CCC-SLP

Mercy Outpatient Neuro Therapy Services

Ed Derr MS, LPC, NCC

Drury University

Topics include how to manage symptoms that accompany Parkinson’s disease progression and the importance of access to a care team. The program will help support the PD community by providing them with additional local resources that can help improve their quality of life.

Attendance is free and open to anyone interested including people with Parkinson’s disease, their family and friends. Advance registration is required to receive the Zoom link.
