Memory Disorder Assessment

Do you remember who the president was in 2005? Do you know the color of the socks that you are wearing?

These may be questions that you are asked when you are screened for a memory disorder. Screening for a memory disorder can be important for you or your loved one, especially if you are beginning to feel the “effects of aging.” Early screening can stand as a form of early intervention. Early intervention can be a vital approach to maintain your health throughout your life.

If you are experiencing early signs of cognitive changes, or memory problems please make contact with us at Thoughtwise, your experts in Tallahassee that specialize in neuropsychological and neurocognitive impairment assessment and interventions.
