Why Memory & Movement Charlotte
As we age, a memory or movement disorder diagnosis in one of our greatest fears yet mild symptoms are often part of the natural aging process. Memory & Movement Charlotte provides comprehensive clinical and diagnostic expertise for individuals with cognitive and movement concerns. We consider a memory and movement disorder a whole family disease, and we diagnose, treat, and educate both the patient and caregiver throughout the entire journey. Our experienced and highly trained providers are devoted to a different kind of care, the foundation of which is our Time & Attention model.
What is the Time & Attention model?
It's simply that - time and attention. Treatment for complex conditions like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's require more time and attention. At Memory & Movement Charlotte, every appointment is 60-90 minutes long, and includes time with the patient, the caregivers, and members of your physician-led care team. You will not be rushed, we will ask a lot of questions to understand your family's situation, and we will address all of your concerns - through every step of the journey.
We understand that for a patient to succeed, their caregivers must be informed, empowered and prepared. So we take a family-focused approach. We expand the definition of a patient to include family and caregivers as well, and we provide comprehensive clinical care, education and emotional support for the entire family.
Our care team will become an extension of yours. And that takes time and attention.
