Questions Patients Often Ask
Is DBS a cure for Parkinson’s disease?
DBS is not a cure but can significantly improve symptoms and quality of life in carefully selected patients when medication control is inadequate.
Who qualifies for epilepsy surgery?
Patients with seizures that do not respond to medication may benefit. A detailed evaluation identifies whether a seizure focus can be safely treated.
