Thank you for joining us!

Last night’s Ask the Doctor event at The Heights at Avery Heights was a wonderful success! We had a great turnout and an engaging discussion led by Dr. Duarte Machado from Hartford Healthcare’s Chase Family Movement Disorders Center.

Special thank you, Dr. Machado, for sharing your expertise and answering thoughtful questions about Parkinson’s symptoms, research and clinical trials, medications, and daily management strategies.

And thank you to Holly Seymour, Program Director of the Connecticut Chapter of the American Parkinson Disease Association, for her outstanding moderation. Holly, your warmth and expertise always shine through—we’re so grateful for your partnership!

Attendees had the opportunity to ask questions about Parkinson’s symptoms, medications, and daily management strategies—all while enjoying a delicious dinner.

We’re proud to host events that support education, connection, and wellness in our community. Stay tuned for more!
