Dr. Dorsey received his medical degree from the University Of Pennsylvania School Of Medicine, completed his internship at Evanston Hospital and his
residency in neurology at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania. He then completed an NIH-funded fellowship in movement disorders and
experimental therapeutics at the University of Rochester.
Dr. Dorsey specializes in the care of patients with movement disorders, including those with Parkinson's and Huntington disease.
His research focuses on the development of new treatments for movement disorders and the development of better ways to deliver care, including
telemedicine, for individuals with neurological conditions. Using simple web-based video conferencing (akin to Skype), Dr. Dorsey and his colleagues are
caring for patients with Parkinson disease and related conditions directly in their communities and homes with a vision of caring for individuals anywhere
they live.
Dr. Dorsey currently sees patients with movement disorders on Tuesdays at The Johns Hopkins Outpatient Center in Baltimore and increasingly via
telemedicine. He also sees patients that may benefit from botulinum toxin injections on Fridays.
