Dementia

We have psychiatrists, psychologists, counselors and therapists in Raleigh, Durham, Cary, Chapel Hill, Asheville, Wake Forest and the surrounding areas waiting and willing to assist you with a diagnosis and treatment of dementia.

Dementia (taken from Latin, originally meaning "madness", from de- "without" + ment, the root of mens "mind") is a serious loss of global cognitive ability in a previously unimpaired person, beyond what might be expected from normal aging. It may be static, the result of a unique global brain injury, or progressive, resulting in long-term decline due to damage or disease in the body. Although dementia is far more common in the geriatric population (about 5% of those over 65 are said to be involved), it can occur before the age of 65, in which case it is termed "early onset dementia".

We recommend testing and evaluation for dementia at our Neuropsychiatric Clinic in Raleigh to begin treatment. Most insurance policies cover testing. Call the clinic today at 919-792-3940 for more information.
