Episode 10: Understanding Parkinson’s Beyond the Clinic: Parkinson’s, Care, and Community

In this episode of Behind the Clinic Doors, I’m joined by Roger, who shares his lived experience of Parkinson’s disease and his journey from diagnosis to becoming an active member of the Selby Parkinson’s Support Group.

Roger talks openly about how he was first diagnosed, the impact Parkinson’s has had on his life and the people around him, and how finding the Selby support group helped him feel understood and supported. We discuss the importance of community, shared experience, and accessible support for those living with Parkinson’s.

Roger also shares thoughtful advice for others living with Parkinson’s, as well as insights for health and foot health professionals, highlighting the value of listening beyond the clinic setting and understanding the person, not just the condition.

This episode offers an honest and meaningful conversation about care, connection, and learning from lived experience.
