When does "Forgetfulness" become a problem?
When does "Misplacing The Keys" become a medical disorder?
We all age. Every part of our body ages, including our brain. Yes, there are people who seem to remain "young forever", but they are the exception.
What about me? Should I be seeking advice?
What about "normal aging". Should we accept this as unavoidable? Are there techniques or treatments that are beneficial? When do I need the benefits of an assessment?
Our answer:
Observe yourself and your loved ones. Are the memory issues interfering with behaviour and function; either at home, socially, or on the job? Research demonstrates that the earlier we intervene, the greater the benefit.
Early identification and diagnosis is critical. Proper assessment is key.
The A.G.E. Matters clinic offers comprehensive assessment. Age Matters Clinic Geriatric Specialists spend the time required to delineate the problems and to quantify deficits where they occur. We can determine if your perceptions are reflected in reality.
Are you "suffering" from normal aging, or is there a real problem? Contact us for an assessment.
