About Memory Clinic
A memory clinic assesses memory and thinking problems. Not all memory loss is dementia: vitamin B12 deficiency, thyroid disease, depression, medicines and infections can cause reversible problems.
Early diagnosis allows planning, treatment and support for the person and family. Keep routines, stay active socially and physically, and control blood pressure and diabetes.
