Memory loss ranges from benign age-related forgetfulness to mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and early dementia. Family-noticed change with functional impact deserves assessment. Dr. Jitendra uses MoCA/MMSE screening, informant history and reversible-cause review to clarify the cause.

Memory loss ranges from benign everyday lapses to progressive impairment from medical, neurological, or psychological contributors — not every lapse is dementia.
Comprehensive history, neurological and cognitive screening (MoCA/MMSE where indicated), targeted investigations (MRI, EEG, NCS/EMG only when presentation warrants them), and caregiver education. See Doctor profile and Authority topics.
When change is noticed by family, affects work or finances, or progresses over months. Early assessment enables planning rather than reaction.
History from patient and informant, MoCA/MMSE screening, medication review, and targeted labs/imaging when indicated — typically 45–60 minutes.
Reversible causes (sleep, mood, deficiencies) respond to treatment. Progressive causes benefit from early planning, risk optimization and support.
