Movement Disorders Program 

The Movement Disorders Program evaluates, diagnoses, and treats all movement disorders including:
  • Tremors
  • Parkinson’s disease
  • Dystonia
  • Restless leg syndrome
  • Huntington’s disease or chorea
Dr. Christopher Way is a movement disorders specialist that performs deep brain stimulation programming for Parkinson’s disease and essential tremor and performs botulinum toxin injections for dystonia.

Dr. Way is the principal investigator of the PROSEEK study at Renown. PROSEEK is a drug trial that is studying a c-Abl inhibitor developed by SUN pharmaceuticals that has shown promise in slowing the progression of Parkinson’s disease.

  • Not on medication for treatment of Parkinson’s disease aside from monoamine oxidase B (MAOB) inhibitors.
