אודות פרק זה
Getting a dementia diagnosis is one of the most emotional moments in healthcare—for patients, families, and clinicians. In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Melissa Armstrong, a neurologist and dementia researcher, to explore how to approach that conversation with clarity, compassion, and the right tools.
We talk about the importance of early diagnosis, how to support both patients and caregivers, and why building a care team matters. Whether you're facing memory changes or supporting someone who is, this episode offers practical advice and hope.
