The Neurology Memory Service is an integrated clinical and research clinic. We provide a comprehensive assessment of patients with cognitive neurological problems to enable an early diagnosis of the diseases that cause dementia . We are forward looking, preparing clinical services for the 21st century.
As well as receiving high-quality assessments, everyone who attends the clinic is given the opportunity to take part in research to help improve the diagnosis and treatments available for people with memory problems.
The Main aims of Neurology Memory Service & South Yorkshire Brain Health Clinic are:
Under 65 years of age with cognitive problems. We do see older adults referred from older adults psychiatry and neurology clinics with more complex needs.
More complex cases or where diagnostic uncertainty exists are referred for detailed neuropsychology or cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers if Alzheimer’s is suspected. This is supported by a team of experienced neuropsychologists with clinical expertise and an interest in research.
