The facts that Dr dolan stated in her video could be false, but if she was to cite facts that were incorrect, I think that there could be many articles on the net accusing her of being dishonest about what she says about DBS. I have not seen any articles accusing here of dishonesty. In fact, I have found articles testifying to what she said is true.
Here is a link about suicide of people that undergo this operation of inserting a wire in the brain and hooking it up to a device that is surgically planted in the body.
The warning is to those considering this operation to have a more-informed body of knowledge so that they can make a more-informed decision as to undergo this operation.
