Description

In this episode, Dr. Gordon discusses her recently published pilot trial in which she and three physician colleagues successfully treated patients with dementia. 

• Evaluating cognitive impairment: subjective vs measurable? 
• Distinguishing mild cognitive impairment from early Alzheimer's dementia
• Which interventions actually moved the needle? 

 Along the way, we dive into details on mechanisms.
