Having successfully treated five PD patients so far, (four of the procedures done in the past one year), the hospital presents three patient case studies of a 63-year-old senior citizen, 40-year-old IT professional and a child 9 years of age to highlight the benefits they obtained from this procedure. “Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) is a surgical procedure where a few electrodes are implanted in the brain to activate certain regions of the brain controlling the movements of the body. It is done by a team of neurologists and neurosurgeons. Thanks to the modern scientific technology that has provided DBS to enhance the basic functions and quality of lives of the patients suffering from Parkinson’s disease- a disease that causes significant disability by affecting body movements“ said Dr. U.
