Mindy Lokshin, The Parkinson Support Center of Northern Nevada

Cheri Hill Show

Over one million people in the United States are living with Parkinson’s Disease. This is a chronic, progressive neurologic disorder that can affect people in their 20’s to their 90’s, however, most are diagnosed in their 60’s. Of course, given the progressive nature of the disabilities associated with PD, the disease affects thousands more spouses, children, and other caregivers. There is some good news in that a renaissance is taking place in Parkinson’s research and therapeutic development. The Michael J. Fox Foundation is leading the charge toward a world without Parkinson’s disease. Joining Cheri Hill today is Dr. Mindy Lokshin of The Parkinson Support Center of Northern Nevada founded in 2021 so that no one has to face Parkinson’s disease alone. pscnn.org Sageintl.com
