Dementia is a progressive neurological condition that affects memory, thinking, behavior, and the ability to perform daily activities. It is not a single disease but a group of disorders, with Alzheimer’s disease being the most common cause. Early symptoms include memory loss, confusion, difficulty with communication, personality changes, and impaired judgment.

Our neurology team focuses on early detection and accurate diagnosis through cognitive assessments, neurological evaluation, and imaging studies when necessary. Identifying dementia in its early stages allows better management and planning for future care.

Although dementia may not be curable, treatments can slow progression and improve quality of life. Management includes medications, cognitive therapy, behavioral strategies, and supportive care. Caregiver education is also essential to ensure a safe and supportive environment.
