About Presenile Dementia

Presenile dementia, also known as early-onset dementia, refers to cognitive decline beginning before age 65. A neurologist conducts a comprehensive diagnostic evaluation to identify the underlying cause, which may include Alzheimer's disease, frontotemporal dementia, or vascular dementia. The procedure involves a detailed clinical assessment, cognitive testing, neurological examination, and advanced brain imaging (MRI, PET scans). Laboratory tests and sometimes cerebrospinal fluid analysis help rule out other conditions. This precise diagnosis is crucial for developing a personalized management plan, which may include medication, cognitive therapy, lifestyle modifications, and family counseling to slow progression and improve quality of life.

PATIENT REVIEW

Had my gallbladder out last week....

Had my gallbladder out last week. The surgery itself was fine, but the first two days after were rough. Dr. Madhumitha was really on top of my pain meds, adjusting them a few times until it was manageable. She checked on me every morning and evening at MGM, which helped a lot. I'm home now and the recovery is going okay, just taking it slow.
