My husband has been diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment. He also has cerebral vascular issues. We had a neurologist but I just don’t see him available to us when we may need help. I was wondering if anyone uses a family physician for taking care of love one with AD?
A one time visit to a neuropsychologist would give you a more definitive idea of what you're dealing with. I always like to visit a specialist when the issue is outside the realm of a family doctor.
A neuro might be able to give you a better idea of "what's next", but probably won't be the main doctor you go to for troubles. All that said, you certainly don't want to cut ties with the neuro, simply because he/she isn't your daily doctor for advice.
