The Roskamp Neurology Clinic

PEGGY KNOTH

I have been seeing Dr. Keegan for about two years, and was referred to him by another excellent neurologist who was unable to diagnose the cause of my sudden-onset, full-body tremors that initially lasted up to 45 minutes with as many as 20 episodes per day. Obviously, this was quite distressing. The hospital ER neurologist said it was Parkinson's disease; however, Dr. Keegan disagrees. Many doctors would jump to that conclusion but Dr. Keegan was much more cautious. He did put me on a course of medicine which has reduced the number of episodes and severity of the tremors. Two days ago when I awakened, my right hand was partially paralyzed. I was able to see my primary care physician immediately who ordered lab work, x-rays of both hands and a CT of the brain without contrast. I am relieved that the CT did not show any symptoms of stroke. This morning while dressing for church, I thought a bug had flown into my hair and I swatted at it but there was no bug. It happened again within several minutes. An hour later as my husband and I sat in our church service, the sensation was so strong that I turned to my husband and asked if he had just tapped the top of my head twice. Then I felt it happen again. He said he had not. I am confident that Dr. Keegan can get to the bottom of this. If anyone can, he can. I am aware that he is retiring from Roskamp Institute in the near future. He will be sorely missed and wherever he goes, I wish him Godspeed.

I am just starting to use this Services by contributing to be a person for their research. They have recommended follow-up testing and I'll report more as I complete the test and spend more time at their Institute. I certainly think everybody should sign up for the initial evaluation which they use for research on curing Alzheimer's PTSD another debilitating neurological conditions.

I did not know that this was non-profit till just recently. My husband has been diagnosed with Alz. I was told that a Dr ANDREW KEEGAN was a wonderful Neurologist.... we like him very much. He is very different than other neurologist that we have met. I hope we have found a place that can help us thru so many difficult stages of this disease.

My parents participated in clinical trials and one of my parents was a patient of Dr. Keegan's. The Institute provided comprehensive, and compassionate care to my parents. The dementia support group was a great help to my caregiver parent, and well tolerated by my parent with memory deficits. Please consider Dr. Keegan and Roskamp for your neurological care needs.
