It is very important that anyone who has problems with their memory has a proper assessment. If these problems are due to dementia then early diagnosis and referral has many benefits for the patient, their carer(s) and family. It can help them to plan and access the treatment and support they need and to improve their quality of life.
Please book with one of the GPs, who can make the initial assessment and refer you to the memory clinic if required.
Living with dementia?
If you or your family member already have a diagnosis of dementia then we provide an annual review with a GP to discuss your care and answer any questions you have. If you think you have not had an annual review recently then please get in touch with the surgery to arrange an appointment.
Age UK provide local services for people with dementia.
If you are a carer for someone with dementia then please see our carer’s page.
