Talk to a Medtronic DBS Therapy Volunteer

If you're considering Medtronic DBS Therapy for treatment of essential tremor symptoms, here's your chance to learn about life with this therapy from someone who receives it. Medtronic DBS Therapy volunteers are not medical experts or Medtronic employees. They're people who have ET and are willing to talk with you about their experiences with Medtronic DBS Therapy.

Ask questions such as:

  • What was the procedure like?
  • What does stimulation feel like?
  • Are you happy with the treatment?

There are two ways to schedule an appointment:

  1. Sign up online
  2. Schedule an appointment by phone: Call (877) 438-3574

A Medtronic DBS Therapy volunteer will contact you within 5 days of your request.

Medtronic DBS Therapy volunteers do not offer medical advice or technical support. The volunteer's remarks do not replace conversations with your doctor about the therapy or whether it may be right for you. For medical questions, please consult your doctor. If you have a Medtronic product and need technical support, please call (800) 510-6735.

Medtronic DBS Therapy volunteers are not Medtronic employees. Medtronic does not monitor for control, and cannot be responsible for, a volunteer's statements. Volunteers are instructed not to disclose your personal information, but we cannot guarantee this will not happen. Therefore, please do not share your personal information with the volunteer unless you wish to do so. Volunteers' comments relate to their particular experience only. As with any treatment, individual results will vary.

We reserve the right to end the "Talk to a Volunteer" program at any time. You may request literature about Medtronic DBS Therapy from your healthcare provider. We also encourage you to carefully review the information on this website and to discuss therapy options with your doctor.
