My husband died with Parkinson's. It is very hard to find a good neurologist, One of the nurses at his GP's office said, "Neurologists are a funny bunch." The worst one made me cry telling me that he didn't want to treat my husband and no one else would want to either. Another left town suddenly taking all of my husbands records with him. Another refused to treat him at all and wouldn't answer my calls. My husband was not a difficult patient. I finally asked his insurance company to find a motion specialist for him and they did. He got excellent care from then on.
If you have health insurance ask a patient advocate to help you. I live in a small town ,maybe it is easier to get a neurologist here.

So sorry to hear that. My husband finally went to a neurologist for help for tremor and just got on med and is starting an intense PT program for mobility at the end of Feb. He is not calling it PD but getting the help was my goal.
