I recently became a member of Synapticure's Expert Advisory Board. Synapticure is a virtual clinic with Movement Disorders Specialists able to see people living with Parkinson's in all 50 states. As a member of the advisory board, I am helping them to better understand Parkinson's patient perspectives so they can provide the best care possible for our community.

I am excited that Synapticure named The Michael J Fox Foundation as their newest advisor, an encouraging seal of approval from one of the spaces leading organizations.

If you're interested in learning more about Synapticure, they are hosting two webinars in the upcoming weeks: June 12 at 2 p.m. will be Women & PD with Dr. Jill Farmer and June 27 at 12 noon will be Disparities in PD with Dr. Chantale Branson, I'm hoping to attend both, You can register using those links and if you have any questions about Synapticure, please let me know.

I’m so sorry it took me so long to write back. So far I just started and it’s been fine . The first thing I did was contact them to get authorization regarding insurance. Luckily my insurance does take them. I’m sure there’s more information on their site for Medicare for example.

They’ve assigned me a care coordinator. She’s very nice. I have an appointment with a neurologist. They try to work with your current doctor because they are all virtual. They’re in Chicago ; I’m in Virginia. Take a team approach to Parkinson’s or ALS. And if you’re interested they’ll also try to find trials for you or give you information about trials. I haven’t really looked into that part yet. That’s as far as I’ve gotten so far but it is nice. Everybody seems very kind. So please let me know if there’s anything else I can tell you.

I am excited. It’s just a chance for something different and a team approach. That’s some thing I’m lacking right now.
