PD Hospitals in Alabama
Three hospital systems specialize in Movement Disorders and the treatment of Parkinson's in Alabama in Birmingham, Huntsville, and Mobile. To qualify as hospital systems that specialize in Parkinson's treatment, they are considered academic research facilities, and perform clinical trials or surgical treatment for Parkinson's.
Choosing a hospital system that specializes in movement disorders and the treatment of Parkinson's can be very beneficial to anyone on the journey with Parkinson's. Typically, physicians and specialists are more aware of Parkinson's disease and can work to find the best solution and treatment path for you compared to organizations that may not treat as many Parkinson's patients. Additionally, you will have the opportunity to participate in clinical trials and treatment options that could be very helpful to you.
