Fred's Story

When essential tremor took away Fred's independence, he turned to St. Vincent Healthcare and a specialized implant to give him his life back.

"I held an ink pen out in front of me and it was steady as can be. And tears came down."

The St. Vincent Regional Neuroscience Center for Brain & Spine is the only facility in the region offering deep brain stimulation, the procedure that reduced Fred's tremors. Learn more about how our specialists can help you get back to being you.
