Dr. Garg
Callie Judd, of this List, gave me the URL of a site operated by a Dr. Dinesh Garg, an Indian doctor who claims to have a "cure" for PD. He operates a privately-owned hospital in India and does such procedures as stem cell implants (still experimental and carefully controlled elsewhere), "brain cooling" (no evidence of any positive effect) and other procedures for spinal cord injury, etc. I was unable to find out anything about his neurosurgical credentials (where he trained, whether he is U. S. Board certified, etc.). He says that he has an M. D., and a Ph. D. (which has "New York" in parentheses next to the degree); but I have absolutely no references for this man as to whether he is even a licensed physician. I would be very cautious about this resource. Best, Bob Robert A. Fink, M. D., F.A.C.S., P. C.

Such advice can only be given after a formal, in-person, consultation between doctor and patient. ********************************************** ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:listserv@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
