Dementia

Professional Diagnosis and Treatment of Dementia in Bethel Park, PA

Dementia is a set of symptoms impacting the mind and cognition. These symptoms may include:

  • Memory problems
  • Reasoning or judgment difficulties
  • Problems with focus
  • Trouble with word-finding and communication

Dementia has many possible causes, but Alzheimer disease and vascular dementia, occurring after a stroke, are the two most common reasons for dementia symptoms.

Effective treatment for dementia first requires determination of the underlying cause. Dr. Ausi can help with tests and imaging that can assist in delineating the nature and severity of dementia. He will then work with you or your loved one to formulate a treatment plan and provide a prognosis.
