My heroes are families living with Alzheimer's Disease and related dementias. I enjoy helping them navigate the journey from the first symptoms through hospice. There is much that Alzheimer's can teach us: patience, empathy, enjoying the moments of life. I have worked with thousands of families and offer expertise in early diagnosis, both behavioral and pharmacologic management of symptoms, optimizing function, and caregiver issues. It is my privilege to assist families' efforts toward optimizing quality of life.
