Abbott – NeuroSphere™ Virtual Clinic

Movement Disorders Specialist, Dr. Drew Falconer, Co-Director, Inova Parkinson’s and Movement Disorders Center in Fairfax, VA discusses the launch of Abbott’s NeuroSphere™ Virtual Clinic, the first technology in the U.S. that allows patients to receive stimulation settings from their doctor without ever leaving their homes. This practice-changing advancement allows patients to remain safe from the COVID-19 pandemic, but still receive the essential care they need for pain or movement disorders.  NeuroSphere Virtual Clinic can also help people who may have inadequate access to healthcare, urban or rural, giving them an alternate solution to traveling any distance and to receive much-needed care.  The NeuroSphere Virtual Clinic is compatible with Abbott’s suite of neuromodulation technologies.

Dr. Drew Falconer is board certified in neurology and is a fellowship-trained movement disorders specialist. He joined Inova Neurology in 2015 with the launch of the Inova Parkinson’s and Movement Disorders Center where he serves as Co-Medical Director. He specializes in advanced care of patients with Parkinson’s disease, essential tremor, dystonia, Huntington’s disease, tic disorders and other movement disorders.

Dr. Falconer serves as assistant professor at the Virginia Commonwealth University School of Medicine, Inova Campus.

He became interested in neurology and movement disorders after seeing the impact that quality, compassionate care combined with cutting-edge pharmacology and technology could have on a patient’s condition. His goal is to work with his patients to restore the quality of life they deserve. He is additionally qualified in deep brain stimulation and botulinum toxin injections.

A native of New Orleans, Dr. Falconer currently resides in McLean, VA, with his wife and two children. In his spare time, he enjoys cooking, spending time outdoors and LSU football.
