Neuropsychology Services of Kansas: Have You Noticed a Change in Your Memory or Other Cognitive Functioning?
We all change as we age, and many people reach a point where they wonder if their cognition is normal, or if they are experiencing a type of neuro degenerative disease. It is important to identify any such disease early to allow individuals and their families to maximize their current and future functioning, and appropriately plan for the future. Dr. Robin Heinrichs has worked with patients and their families for 15 years, providing answers to everyday questions, and helping to ensure the wellbeing and safety of her patients.
Is your forgetting or personality change just part of normal aging or is there another cause? We help diagnose dementia, memory loss, and MS.
If you have cognitive impairment, what is causing the change? How can you best work around current cognitive impairment to maximize your safety and wellbeing? With cognitive impairment, what should you and your family expect in the future If impairment is present, what type of assistance is needed to help you be as independent as possible while keeping you and others around you safe?
Dr. Robin Heinrichs answers these questions and works with her patients and their families to keep them as safe and independent as possible.
