Coventry & Warwickshire Regional Parkinson's Service

Welcome to the Coventry & Warwickshire Regional Parkinson's Service. This website provides information for people with Parkinson's, their carers and their health professionals. We hope that you find it useful but please do let us know if there is anything else you would like information about.

 

Who are we and where can we be found?

The regional Parkinson’s team comprises of doctors, nurses and therapists with specialist training in Parkinson’s who work closely together. We also have very close links with the Parkinson’s UK Local Advisers as well as the specialist nurses for other Parkinsonian conditions and non-oral therapies. The Service was Highly Commended in the inaugural Parkinson’s UK Excellence Network Awards in 2017.

The regional team helps look after over 1700 people with Parkinsonian conditions living in Coventry and Warwickshire. Specialist Parkinson’s clinics (nurse and/or consultant led) are held in the areas shown on the map below.
