Apologies if this has been asked already, but what can we expect from the memory clinic. Mum has been referred by the new gp, we know she has dementia but was not referred to the local one in France, so we've moved back to the UK.
I had epilepsy as a child and went through surgery for it. Part of that process was a stay at the hospital in Chalfont in Buckinghamshire where I had a fMRI, memory tests (recall a passage details, recall a list, shown people from photos then asked which ones I had seen before, verbal reasoning and logic puzzles etc), meetings with psychologists and psychiatrists etc.
Is this what happens in the dementia memory clinic? Would mum have a MRI scan as well?
