NEUROPSYCHOLOGICAL ASSESSMENTS

Our specially trained neuropsychology registrar conducts tests assessing for brain injury and degenerative conditions including Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease and Huntington’s disease, amongst others.

We work closely with multidisciplinary teams of GPs, geriatricians, neurologists, neuropsychiatrists, and care coordinators to both provide diagnoses and treatment plans for mutual patients.
