"Not everything that shakes is
Parkinson's."
- V. Daniel Kassicieh, D.O. |
Correcting a mistaken diagnosis of
Parkinson's is not an altogether uncommon occurrence.
It is important to remember that there are other causes for
the tremors ("shaking"). If you are concerned that you or
a loved one may be suffering from Parkinson's disease, it is
important that you see a highly qualified Neurologist who
specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of this
type of movement disorder.
Dr. Kassicieh is a sought-after speaker on the subject of
Parkinson's disease and similar diseases. This
includes the much
more common and less severe illness known as Essential Tremor. Dr.
Kassicieh is also a leading regional expert in the treatment of these
illnesses. He is one only a few Neurologists trained
in the advanced technique of Deep Brain Stimulators (DBS)
therapy.
Don't you and your loved ones deserve the very best?

| Tired of Waiting in Your Doctor's Office? |
How many times have you had an appointment in your
doctor's office, gotten there on time and then had to wait 30 minutes,
an hour or even more? We all have. It is one of the frustrating aspects
of visiting your doctor's office. Dr. Kassicieh, at Sarasota Neurology,
understands that. He respects patients' time and makes every effort to
see patients at their scheduled appointment time. Dr. Kassicieh does
not want his patients waiting for more than a few minutes after they
check in, to be seen. He values their time as much as they do and
understands his patients have other commitments and time constraints.

Medical science continues to make
progress in the treatment of Alzheimer's Disease, but one of
the most critical factors in determining how well its
progression can be slowed has to due with early detection.
Many times family members are the first to notice the early
signs of Alzheimer's disease, namely memory loss.
Typical early signs include difficulty recalling important
events or conversations.
