𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗶𝗻𝘀𝗼𝗻’𝘀 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝗗𝗮𝘆

Today, we honor the strength of those living with Parkinson’s disease and the families, caregivers, and communities who support them. At Noran Neurology, our Movement Disorders subspecialists are dedicated to providing expert, compassionate care for individuals at every stage of their Parkinson’s journey.

Parkinson’s disease is a progressive condition of the central nervous system, caused by the gradual loss of nerve cells that produce dopamine. This loss leads to many of the symptoms people experience, including:
• Tremor at rest
• Slowed movement (bradykinesia)
• Muscle stiffness or rigidity
• Changes in walking, balance, speech, sleep, mood, and memory

Our team understands how deeply these symptoms can affect daily life—simple tasks like walking, writing, or drinking from a glass can become challenging. That’s why our specialists work closely with each patient to develop individualized treatment plans that may include medications, exercise, surgical options such as deep brain stimulation (DBS), and supportive therapies.

Our commitment at Noran Neurology:
• Delivering expert subspecialty care in movement disorders
• Offering the latest treatment options, including advanced surgical therapies
• Supporting patients and families with education, resources, and guidance
• Partnering with leading organizations to advance research and awareness

On World Parkinson’s Disease Day, we stand with our patients, their loved ones, and the broader Parkinson’s community. Together, we continue to raise awareness, support one another, and work toward better treatments—and one day, a cure.

April is Parkinson’s Awareness Month, a time to recognize the strength of those living with Parkinson’s disease and to raise awareness about this progressive neurological condition. Parkinson’s occurs when certain nerve cells in the brain break down and stop producing dopamine, leading to symptoms such as tremor, slowed movement, stiffness, and changes in speech, sleep, digestion, and mood.

At Noran Neurology, our Movement Disorders subspecialists provide expert evaluation and individualized treatment options—including medication management, surgical options like deep brain stimulation (DBS), and supportive therapies focused on mobility, balance, and quality of life.

This month, we stand with our patients, families, and caregivers. By learning the signs, encouraging early evaluation, and supporting ongoing research, we can make a meaningful difference.
