Please pass on this interesting article below to Dr Cherie.
Dr Cherie informed me that Dr Wu had tried a similar treatment ten years previously with mixed success
But now it appears the previous problems with the procedure have been mostly resolved
I hope your clinic can have this treatment available in the next year for patients with Parkinson's
