From adaptive DBS to stem cell trials, gene Therapy, and subcutaneous levodopa pumps — Dr. John Legge and Dr. Jessica Shields share the treatments and technologies that excite them most.
Dr. Shields is a fellowship-trained neurosurgeon with an MD/PhD from Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center and research training at the National Institutes of Health. Her expertise includes deep brain stimulation, a leading surgical treatment for Parkinson’s disease.
Dr. Legge is a board-certified neurologist and fellowship-trained movement disorders specialist focused on Parkinson’s disease. He practices at Eisenhower Health in Palm Springs, CA and believes listening to patients is key to guiding the right treatment.
