specialists, PD nurse specialists, dietitian, physiotherapists,
occupational therapists, speech therapists, a pharmacist,
social services and a technical team who devise innovative
control interfaces with computers that allow patients to
communicate effectively and control their environments all
with the touch of a switch or the blink of an eye.
Individualized educational sessions and innovative
rehabilitation treatment programs focus on improving
functional abilities to empower those living with movement
disorders to cope with daily challenges and improve their
quality of life.
The clinic sees adult patients aged 18 and older at any point
