I have the Dream Team at the NPF Udall Center in Baltimore at Johns Hopkins. They have extra time to spend with me when I go in to participate in research. My internist (primary) is also at Johns Hopkins, where they are all on the faculty of the medical school. My treatment is much as Carey described hers, except that i go out and find my own Physical Therapists and such, and sometimes imaging and lab services. Also very important, I have the sand to argue and ask for explanations, and by great good fortune and 28 years of hard work I have a husband who goes with me to my appointments and participates. I have a spiritual adviser who visits me once a month or so to help me keep my attitude good.

Oh, and I still have PD.
