No — mood, sleep, medications, thyroid/B12, hearing and other reversible contributors frequently impair cognition. Cognitive assessment sorts these first before concluding dementia.
Informant history, MoCA/MMSE screening, medication and mood/sleep review, neurological exam and targeted labs/imaging only when findings would change management. Duration typically 45–60 minutes plus informant interview.
When forgetfulness impacts daily function, repeats, misplaces, misses appointments, or family notices change — especially with vascular risk factors (hypertension, diabetes) or after stroke. Early evaluation enables planning even when no curative drug exists.
