This terrific guide for general practitioners on two disorders — progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and corticobasal degeneration (CBD). The guide was published by the PSP Association, based in the UK (pspeur.org). The guide covers many topics including diagnosis, treatment (management, medication), difficult conversations, cognition and behavior, end-of-life care, support for carers, and stem cell treatment.
Here’s a link to the guide:

Probably many of us are envious of the “multi-disciplinary care team” available to those in the UK. Note that a lot of the terms and certainly medication names are specific to the UK.
