As part of our further development of clinical services, the VA San Diego Healthcare System (VASDHS), in partnership with the Parkinsons’s Association of San Diego, will be starting a support group for Veterans with Parkinson’s disease.

The group will be lead by J. Vincent Filoteo, PhD, and Kathy Randall, LCSW, and will meet the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays of the month from 4-5PM at the VA Hospital in La Jolla. Our first meeting will be Tuesday, February 28th, 2012 at 4:00PM. To participate, individuals will have to be registered, or eligible to register, as a VA patient. Participants must be formally registered as a group member to come to meetings.

There is limited space available for this group; if you are interested please contact Shannon Earl at (858) 552-8585 ext. 5593 to find out more about the group and if you are eligible to participate. We look forward to starting this group and continuing our development of clinical services at the VA for Veterans with Parkinson’s disease.
