I administer standardized neuropsychological tests to patients under the Senior's Health portfolio. I have strong assessment skills, strong communication and time management skills, and the ability to adapt to a wide variety of patient situations. I see patients who are being (or have been) diagnosed with a wide number of neurodegenerative diseases including dementia, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, Huntington's disease, normal pressure hydrocephalus, stroke, and mild cognitive impairment. I am also responsible for scoring these assessments and interpreting results in a report that is then shared with the patient and their family members.
