Attend our free, live seminar on Sept. 25 to learn how focused ultrasound is being used to treat patients with essential tremor and change lives.
The Swedish Neuroscience Institute was the first hospital in the Pacific Northwest and is currently the only hospital in Washington State offering focused ultrasound for the treatment of essential tremor, a non-life threatening neurological condition that can severly impact a patient's quality of life.
One major advantage of focused ultrasound is that the techique does not require an incision or the implantation of any hardware or electrodes, which allows for faster recovery times, and usually, for patients to go home the same day or thier procedure.
Join Tony Wang, M.D., a Providence Swedish neurosurgeon, on Wednesday, Sept. 25 from 3:00 to 4:30 p.m. PST for a free seminar to learn more about how focused ultrasound is being used to treat essential tremor. You'll also hear from patients who have been treated with this innovative option and have the opportunity ask questions during a Q&A session.
