Focus On Neurology And Psychiatry

Host: Leslie P. Lundt, MD Guest: Joseph Jankovic, MD More than 40 million people are living with a movement disorder, chronic, often painful and debilitating conditions that negatively impact a person's quality of life. These neurological conditions include Parkinson's disease, tics and Tourette's syndrome, tremor, dystonia, spasticity and ataxia among others. Despite the prevalence, movement disorders still go undiagnosed or misdiagnosed with some patients visiting more than 15 doctors over the course of five years before receiving a correct diagnosis. Host Dr. Leslie Lundt reviews movement disorders with Dr. Joeseph Jankovic.
