Hey Friends, if you bought the book “The Parkinson’s Plan” on Amazon and you found that it helped you (or even if it didn’t), I’d really appreciate it if you’d leave an honest review there. Reviews genuinely help others discover books and shape how visible they are. Thanks!

🚨 5 fake “Parkinson’s Plan Workbooks” are scamming readers on Amazon. Drs. Okun & Dorsey did NOT write or approve them. Many in the PD community are being duped. Report & share! #ParkinsonsPlan #EndParkinsons
