Gerald J. Calegan, II, M.D.

Dr. Calegan joined The NeuroMedical Center in 2006, and alongside neurosurgeon Dr. Paul Waguespack, developed Baton Rouge’s first Deep Brain Stimulation Center to treat patients with Parkinson’s Disease, essential tremor, and dystonia. Dr. Calegan treats all neurologic conditions, and is actively engaged in clinical research. He has served as the primary investigator for several clinical trials at The NeuroMedical Center. He believes in the importance of personally meeting with each and every one of his patients and their families in order to serve as an expert adviser in the sometimes difficult and confusing process of medical decision-making. Dr. Calegan is an active member of several professional organizations including the American Academy of Neurology and the Movement Disorder Society.
