Episode description

Last episode we spoke with a MDS and Assistant Professor at Vanderbilt University about integrative medicine. This episode is a great follow up to the previous one.  This time it is student at the University of Cincinnati leading the charge to bring an integrated approach to Parkinson’s care. She formed a not-for profit organization called Parkinson’s Together. It brings students from multiple disciplines to help with patient care.  That may include law students, engineers, finance but mainly students interested in the medical field and with interest in helping others.

I had a delightful conversation with Mallika Desai about her efforts. She is a very dedicated, inspiring, smart young woman determined to make a difference in the quality of life for people with Parkinson's disease. We need more like her and her colleagues in our world. Enjpy the discussion.
