Parkinson's Disease and Movement Disorders

Weill Cornell Medicine Neurological Surgery offers advanced treatment options for individuals affected by movement disorders, including Parkinson’s disease, dystonia, essential tremor, ataxia, Tourette’s syndrome, and related conditions. We specialize in deep brain stimulation (DBS), spinal stimulation, and other state-of-the-art treatments for movement disorders and pain. We are one of the few centers in the United States offering image-guided, high-intensity focused ultrasound for essential tremor.

If you have advanced Parkinson’s disease and are experiencing dyskinesia symptoms or motor fluctuations that are not responding to medicines, you may be eligible for a clinical trial examining a new minimally invasive method to treat your symptoms.
