Parkinson's Disease Programme

Overview

Parkinson's disease is an age-related degenerative brain disorder that causes unintended or uncontrollable movements. Symptoms typically include tremors, stiffness, slowness of movement, and difficulty with balance. While there is no cure, early diagnosis and management can significantly improve the quality of life.

The AKUH Parkinson's Disease Programme offers specialised care tailored to the unique needs of each patient, providing hope and support throughout their journey. 

Conditions We Treat

Our programme focuses on managing the symptoms of Parkinson's disease and improving the patient's overall well-being. We offer expert care for:

  • Parkinson's disease.

  • Parkinsonism (symptoms similar to Parkinson's but caused by other conditions).

  • Movement disorders associated with Parkinson's, such as tremors, rigidity, and slowness.

At AKUH, we are committed to providing compassionate and expert care for individuals living with Parkinson's disease. Our goal is to empower patients and their families to navigate the challenges of this disease with strength and resilience.​
