About Me
I am a neurologist certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology (ABPN). I have been seeing patients with neurological disorders including cognitive changes and cognitive disorders since my residency years. I managed the dementia clinic in the neurology department at St. Louis University and I continue to manage the dementia clinic at my current position as well.
I recently became a health and life coach and I use the skills that I acquired during my study of coaching toward further caring for my patients and providing them with the quality care they expect.
There are several types of Dementia, and not all dementias have the same presentation. Some dementias are reversible when they are related to a known cause - see later.
Memory is only one domaine of cognition. There are other domains that can be affected in dementia - See later.
Memory loss is mostly affected in Alzheimer's Disease, but it can also occur in different dementias.
Not all Alzheimer's Disease cases start with memory changes or memory loss. In early onset Alzheimer's disease, the memory may be affected last in the course of the disease.
Different dementias present with different pattern of memory loss. There are several types of memory.
Age is the single most important risk factor for dementia of Alzheimer's type, and when Alzheimer's start at less than 65 years of age, it is called Early Onset Alzheimer's (EOA).
