I am over 65 years old, Do I have dementia?

Many people believe that dementia is a normal part of Ageing. This is simply not true. While older age above 65 years is a risk factor for dementia ,it does not mean that every older person will develop dementia.

While some forgetfulness may be considered typical as we get older, when Memory loss begins to affect your ability to self care, manage your finances, your daily hygiene routines, affects your relationships, your ability to navigate the world around you, then we may consider that degree of memory loss as an illness.

If you have noticed any changes in yourself or a loved one, visit Ameer Medical & Dental Clinic Ameer Medical and Dental Clinic for an assesment in our Memory and Ageing Clinic.
