Ep14: Bobby Krause: From Early Onset Parkinson's Patient to Focused Ultrasound Advocate


Listen Later


In this episode, we meet Bobby Krause, a former college athlete and sales executive who was diagnosed with early-onset Parkinson's disease at age 42. Bobby candidly discusses his struggle with debilitating tremors that impacted his ability to engage with his family and perform at work. After experiencing severe side effects from medications, Bobby turned to focused ultrasound treatment for help.
 
Bobby provides a vivid account of the focused ultrasound procedure, describing the immediate and profound results he experienced. Within hours, his tremors disappeared and muscle rigidity eased, allowing him to hike with his sons the very same day. Bobby remains tremor-free and has returned to coaching basketball and other activities he previously enjoyed.
 
Now a passionate advocate for focused ultrasound technology, Bobby has spoken to U.S. policymakers about his experience and founded the Be Still Foundation. The foundation aims to provide financial assistance for those seeking focused ultrasound treatment and raise awareness about this innovative technology.
