All of these Centers have specialized HD programs and reputations for first-rate treatment. But how are they chosen and what exactly is required to become a Center of Excellence?
Centers of Excellence are chosen by the Huntington’s Disease Society of America (HDSA). HDSA is a national nonprofit health organization dedicated to finding a cure for Huntington’s Disease and to providing support for everyone affected by HD – both patients and their families.

By recognizing some of the best HD clinics in the nation, HDSA hopes to promote the highest standards of care. To qualify as a Center of Excellence, an HD clinic must provide comprehensive services, have a reputation for excellent medical care, and demonstrate a commitment to HD education and research.
