Is it possible to see an online neurologist? If you see an online neurologist can he prescribe carbidopa/levodopa?

I would recommend checking out Synapticure. It’s online practice to help people with movement disorders. Here’s the link: synapticure.com/

My neuro is 2 hrs from me, we do tele-med when she "has time", which isn't often. I don't fine it very satisfying. We don't have any neuro dr's close.

I just last week saw my movement disorder neuro on zoom. However, it was a check in not an initial consult. I doubt she would've diagnosed or initially prescribed meds without an in person consult as they do all those finger tapping, foot stomping, back pulling etc tests in person.

Not what you're looking for?
