My name is Christopher W. Hess, MD, and I am an assistant professor of neurology at the University of Florida College of Medicine, and I also direct the Veterans Administration Parkinson鈥檚 Disease Consortium Center at the North Florida/South Georgia VA Medical Center.

I received my medical degree from the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York and completed my neurology residency, serving as chief resident, at Columbia University Medical Center. I completed subspecialty fellowship training in movement disorders at Columbia under Dr. Stanley Fahn, with additional training in movement disorders, neurophysiology and intraoperative mapping for deep brain stimulation.

I have published journal articles and book chapters on a variety of topics, including movement disorders, neurophysiology and methods of tremor analysis, neuroimaging in movement disorders, invasive and non-invasive brain stimulation in Parkinson鈥檚 disease, and substance abuse in movement disorders. My current research interests include the study of wearable devices in movement disorders and the cortical oscillations associated with voluntary movements in dystonia.

I am currently a member of the International Parkinson and Movement Disorders Society and the American Academy of Neurology. I am also board-certified by the American Board of Neurology and Psychiatry.
