Finding a PD physical therapist

I just found out a way to find a physical therapist who knows about Parkinson's in the US.  Thanks to Dr. Ryan Duncan, who presented at the Davis Phinney Victory Summit on 8/10/2018.

Use the website MoveForwardPT.com, from the American Physical Therapy Association.  Select the zip code or city/state.  This will give you a list of all physical therapists in your area, but only some of them will have experience working with PD.  So then from the list of specialties choose Neurological - which includes PD.
