Patients with dementia deserve a provider who knows their struggles.
Managing dementia symptoms requires evidenced-based knowledge, a focus on patient goals, and thorough communication.
There are many forms of dementia and different needs with each diagnosis. These are the types of dementia I manage in primary care:
Alzheimer’s Disease, Lewy Body Dementia, Vascular Dementia, Frontal Temporal Dementia, Young Onset Dementia, Mixed Dementia, Korsakoff Syndrome, and Parkinson’s Disease Dementia.
