My experience with the movement disorder specialist (who is well-published and highly regarded professionally) was that this expert was cold, arrogant, demeaning,insulting and insufferable! Came in with a clip board, asked about 6questions, had me walk across the tiny exam room, and left without comment. This was a consistent pattern, starting from the very fist diagnostic appointment - that time the doc did say "You have Parkinson's" before leaving. I was lucky enough to find a neuro who did his residency under the great specialist and knows Parkinson's but sees people with other neuorlogical diseases and TALKS to all of us. I want to be treated as a person, since no one has a cure, at least be kind, polite, respectful. It counts for a lot.
