“Is deep brain stimulation right for me?”
Only some patients benefit. We assess candidacy thoroughly and tell you plainly — including when the honest answer is medication optimisation instead.
ABOUT MOVEMENT DISORDERS
Neurology institute
Movement disorders.Neurology · Istanbul
Parkinson's, tremor and dystonia are managed best when the medication is tuned to the hour, not the textbook.
Parkinson's, essential tremor and dystonia respond to careful, iterative tuning. We optimise medication around your real day, assess candidacy for deep brain stimulation honestly, and pair every plan with targeted rehabilitation.

What brings people to us
Movement disorders.
Sound familiar?
You don't need a diagnosis to start — the board reads your records and answers in writing. These are the situations that usually bring people to this page.
Tremor at rest, or with posture and action
Stiffness, slowness, or a shuffling gait
“Off” periods where medication wears thin
Involuntary postures or muscle pulling (dystonia)
How we treat it

Before you decide
Movement disorders — the questions we're asked.
If your question isn't here, ask it directly — a human replies in minutes, in 8 languages.
“I can't travel in my condition.”
You don't travel to start. The board reads your records remotely, and a medically-trained case-manager plans travel only if — and when — treatment justifies it.
REMOTE FIRST-READ
“What does it cost to find out?”
Nothing. The board's first review is free, and before anything is scheduled you receive a fixed, written plan — no open-ended invoices.
