CONCLUSION: The prevalence of PD is high in the Hauts-de-France region with a heterogeneous distribution by health territory. Neurology consultations were attended by a minority of patients in 2014. This work provides perspectives for necessary improvement in specialized care for this disease, both in terms of follow-up consultations and home care.
