About Dr. Jawad A. Bajwa
Access to Special knowledge and Clinical Skills in Parkinson’s Disease, Movement Disorders and Interventional Deep Brain Stimulation Therapy.
Dr. Bajwa is an interventional movement disorders and deep brain stimulation (DBS) specialist having a unique and versatile background in the treatment of some of the most difficult neurological diseases. He is an expert in Parkinson’s disease (PD), tremor treatment, myoclonic phenotypes and dystonia syndromes among many others, which need to be carefully evaluated and managed lifelong. His expertise in interventional deep brain stimulation (DBS) therapy makes him very unique and rare in the region since he is one of the very few experienced neurologists in pre-operative selection, intraoperative deep brain stimulation (DBS) neurophysiological mapping, precision based deep brain stimulation (DBS) lead implantation and long term post-deep brain stimulation (DBS) device programming and management.
His career started at King Edward Medical University in Lahore, Pakistan. He advanced his post graduate studies in the USA, where he underwent neurology residency training at Georgetown University Hospital in Washington, DC. In the process, he perfected his skills of diagnostic and clinical management for neurological disorders including Parkinson’s disease (PD) and movement disorders. His deep interest in Parkinson’s disease (PD), movement disorders and deep brain stimulation (DBS) then prompted him to move to the Cleveland Clinic Foundation, Cleveland, Ohio where he served a two-year clinical fellowship in Parkinson’s disease (PD), movement disorders, deep brain stimulation (DBS), intraoperative deep brain stimulation (DBS) neurophysiology and neuromodulation.
Since his training days, he has invested his clinical skills and time to care for patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD), Essential tremor (ET), and other movement disorders, providing expert care and dystonia treatment for patients suffering from dystonia

Strong Academic and Clinical Base.
The academic and clinical experience of Dr. Bajwa demonstrates the excellence required to succeed and excel in a field as complicated as neurology, movement disorders and deep brain stimulation (DBS).
He is a graduate of King Edward Medical University, which is among the top medical schools in South Asia. He eventually went on to complete his neurology residency at the prestigious Georgetown University Hospital, Washington, DC, USA where he gained advanced clinical exposure and an overall grasp of general and specialized neurological conditions.
After his residency, he resumed his practice at the world renowned Cleveland Clinic Foundation, Cleveland, Ohio, USA where he had a comprehensive fellowship training in movement disorders, deep brain stimulation (DBS) and neuromodulation.
His fellowship also focused on intraoperative neurophysiological mapping, deep brain stimulation (DBS) lead implantation, deep brain stimulation (DBS) device programming and co-management of deep brain stimulation (DBS) programming, medications and multiple stages of diseases, which in turn trained him to enhance deep brain stimulation (DBS) precision from patient selection to deep brain stimulation (DBS) implantation to post deep brain stimulation (DBS) patient outcomes.
He is devoted to constant learning. He has been engaged as a leader over the years in global education, training, scientific research, and international clinical and research collaborations, and as a result, his clinical practice has been kept in tune with changing international standards.
Dr. Jawad A. Bajwa: Professional Experience
Twenty five years of leadership in parkinson’s disease, movement disorders and interventional deep brain stimulation therapy.
Dr. Bajwa has an over twenty five year career with experience of leadership both in the United States and the Middle East. In the USA, he directed the first of its kind community-based Parkinson’s disease (PD) and movement disorders center in Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota. The center offered medical, interventional and holistic wellness care to patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) and offered a model on integrated management at various stages of the disease.
He then relocated to the Middle East, where he built and was the founding director for the Parkinson’s disease (PD), movement disorders and neurorestoration program. In his role, he developed an extensive service line to serve the needs of patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD), movement disorders and those looking for deep brain stimulation surgery.
He continues to manage complex cases of movement disorders in this clinical role, assess patients for deep brain stimulation (DBS), provides interventional deep brain stimulation (DBS) clinical services and remains at the center of influencing movement disorders and deep brain stimulation (DBS) care and services in the region.
Dr. Jawad A. Bajwa has been known in his career to make practice innovations in the field of deep brain stimulation (DBS) therapy, clinical research, and multidisciplinary movement disorders care. He has also been instrumental in hosting regional education courses and programs such as the inaugural Middle East camp for Parkinson’s disease (PD) and movement disorders by the International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society, which was held in Dubai, UAE in 2014.
An occasion that is considered as the tipping point in the field and has contributed greatly towards the development of physician training, research and clinical growth in the field of Parkinson’s disease (PD) and movement disorders across Middle East, North Africa and South Asia (MENASA) region. He was the founding chair for the International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society Middle East Task Force for Parkinson’s disease (PD) and movement disorders.
Areas of Expertise
Specialization in parkinson’s disease, movement disorders and interventional deep brain stimulation therapy.
Dr. Bajwa at Parkinson’s MD Care focuses on the entire spectrum of care for movement disorders, including Parkinson’s disease (PD), tremor, dystonia, myoclonus, tics and deep brain stimulation (DBS). He has experience in pre-deep brain stimulation (DBS) assessment, selection of devices, intraoperative neurophysiological mapping, deep brain stimulation (DBS) lead implantation and post-deep brain stimulation (DBS) device setting, to achieve maximum clinical results.
Moreover, his interventional skills in deep brain stimulation (DBS) therapy is a patient-centred, evidence-based approach that would maximise function, minimise symptoms and enhance quality of life.
