Living with a movement disorder or other neurological condition is one of the most challenging journeys you and your loved one can experience.

At this free webinar, you will learn from a neurosurgeon affiliated with Sharp Grossmont Hospital how deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery and an innovative, non-invasive treatment called MR-guided focused ultrasound (FUS) can significantly ease symptoms, improve movement control and help you get back to enjoying life. The presentation will be followed by a question-and-answer session with the physician.
