Hope Over Fear: Early Parkinson's Diagnosis with Dr. Andrew Lerman

Parkinson's disease touches more lives than ever before. A parent, a friend, a colleague—or perhaps even yourself.

But there is something important to understand:

The outlook for Parkinson's disease is changing.

In this episode of Live Aligned, I sit down with neurologist, clinical researcher, and movement advocate Dr. Andrew Lerman to explore why earlier diagnosis, emerging treatments, and exercise are reshaping the future for people living with Parkinson's.

Together, we discuss:

✅️The early signs worth paying attention to
✅️New diagnostic tools that are changing care
✅️Why movement may be one of the most powerful interventions available today
✅️The truth about Parkinson's medications and common myths
✅️Deep brain stimulation, focused ultrasound, and promising new research
✅️Why community, connection, and family support matter

This conversation is ultimately about one thing:

How to replace fear with hope.

💬 Comment HOPE and I'll DM you the episode link.

Right side, done. ✅

Today we programmed the right hemisphere DBS (Deep Brain Stimulation) for one of my patients, which controls the left side of the body. In a few weeks, we’ll complete the left side, and once both are optimized, his Parkinson’s symptoms should be close to completely resolved.

Less tremor. Less rigidity. More independence. 🙌

So who is DBS for?
Deep Brain Stimulation is a life-changing option for people living with Parkinson’s disease whose symptoms are no longer well-controlled by medication alone, or who are experiencing difficult side effects from long-term drug use. It’s also used for essential tremor and dystonia. A neurostimulator is implanted and sends precise electrical signals to the specific brain regions responsible for movement control, essentially overriding the faulty signals causing symptoms.

The goal? Give people their lives back. Less dependency on medication, better motor control, and a quality of life that meds alone often can’t achieve at this stage.

Watching someone regain control of their own body is exactly why I do what I do. 🧠⚡

Lado derecho, listo. ✅

Hoy programamos el DBS (Estimulación Cerebral Profunda) del hemisferio derecho de uno de mis pacientes, que controla el lado izquierdo del cuerpo. En unas semanas completaremos el lado izquierdo, y una vez que ambos estén optimizados, sus síntomas de Parkinson deberían estar cerca de resolverse por completo.

Menos temblor. Menos rigidez. Más independencia. 🙌

¿Para quién es el DBS?
La Estimulación Cerebral Profunda es una opción que cambia vidas para las personas que viven con la enfermedad de Parkinson cuyos síntomas ya no están bien controlados solo con medicación, o que experimentan efectos secundarios difíciles por el uso prolongado de medicamentos. También se utiliza para el temblor esencial y la distonía. Se implanta un neuroestimulador que envía señales eléctricas precisas a las regiones cerebrales específicas responsables del control del movimiento, esencialmente anulando las señales defectuosas que causan los síntomas.

¿El objetivo? Devolverle la vida a las personas. Menos dependencia de la medicación, mejor control motor y una calidad de vida que los medicamentos solos frecuentemente no pueden lograr en esta etapa.

Ver a alguien recuperar el control de su propio cuerpo es exactamente la razón por la que hago lo que hago. 🧠⚡

🧠 What is Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS)?
If you or a loved one is living with Parkinson's disease, essential tremor, dystonia, or epilepsy, you may have heard the term Deep Brain Stimulation. But what exactly is it?

DBS is a FDA-approved surgical therapy that works like a pacemaker for the brain. A small device is implanted under the skin that delivers gentle electrical impulses to specific areas of the brain, helping to regulate abnormal activity and reduce symptoms that medication alone may not be able to control.

Who is it for?
DBS may be an option for patients with:
✅ Parkinson's Disease
✅ Essential Tremor
✅ Dystonia
✅ Epilepsy
✅ OCD

Is it right for you?
Not every patient is a candidate. A thorough evaluation by a neurologist and neurosurgeon is needed to determine whether DBS is the right path forward for your specific condition and symptoms.

At Grove Neurology, Dr. Andrew Lerman is experienced in evaluating and guiding patients through every step of the DBS journey, from initial consultation to long-term follow-up care.

🧠 ¿Qué es la Estimulación Cerebral Profunda (DBS)?
Si usted o un ser querido vive con la enfermedad de Parkinson, temblor esencial, distonía o epilepsia, es posible que haya escuchado el término Estimulación Cerebral Profunda.

¿Pero qué es exactamente?
La DBS es una terapia quirúrgica aprobada por la FDA que funciona como un marcapasos para el cerebro. Un pequeño dispositivo implantado bajo la piel envía impulsos eléctricos suaves a áreas específicas del cerebro, ayudando a regular la actividad anormal y reducir síntomas que los medicamentos por sí solos no siempre pueden controlar.

¿Para quién es?
La DBS puede ser una opción para pacientes con:
✅ Enfermedad de Parkinson
✅ Temblor Esencial
✅ Distonía
✅ Epilepsia
✅ Trastorno Obsesivo Compulsivo (TOC)

¿Es la opción correcta para usted?
No todos los pacientes son candidatos. Se necesita una evaluación completa por parte de un neurólogo y un neurocirujano para determinar si la DBS es el camino adecuado para su condición y síntomas específicos.
En Grove Neurology, Dr. Andrew Lerman tiene amplia experiencia en evaluar y acompañar a los pacientes en cada paso del proceso de DBS, desde la consulta inicial hasta el seguimiento a largo plazo.

Moments like this are why we do what we do. 🙂

Seeing our patient go from needing a walker to walking freely and confidently after Deep Brain Stimulation is incredibly powerful.

We share in her joy and are so grateful to be part of her journey.

Parkinson’s disease looks different for everyone, but today’s treatments continue to offer meaningful possibilities.

If you or a loved one are living with Parkinson’s, an evaluation with a movement disorders specialist can help determine which options may be right for you.
