  • Oh dear! It'd take a deep brain stimulation to treat Parkinson's. Sounds really painful huh! Better be effective or else it would worsen the case.

  • Absolutely amazing.

  • A good friend of mine with advanced Parkinson's had this surgery. A month later, I met him for coffee, I was shocked. You couldn't tell he had this disease at all.

    The only problem is that it doesn't work with his shuffling. However, I am so glad he had it

  • @dumbnetworks

    They did - it helped.

  • 12:16 watch that to answer your question about why DBS is not for ali or j fox

  • Brain chip - CHECK MY SITE.

  • can't they use this for Ali and Michael J Fox?

  • very professionally done. thanks. Stuart Gherini, M.D.

  • can someone please upload Dr. Silver's videos on Migraines? I have seen them and think they need to be better distributed. They are extremely informative regarding a subject that people know very little about, including people who are affected by it.

  • Awesome Stuff!!
