Neurologist in Baltimore / Howard County Area?

HerGuy

My wife has seen a couple neurologists about Mild Cognitive Impairment (which I believe she has), but I haven't been impressed by either of them.  When I research online (and get references from our primary care physician), I am also unimpressed.  I'm hoping to find someone who gets good reviews AND specializes in dementia / Alzheimers.  

I want someone who goes beyond the 10-15 minute oral test that seems to be commonly used to for initial screening with a max score in the 25-30 range.  

I feel like the neurologists we've seen have taken a single course in dementia and mostly studied other areas of neurology.

Can someone please recommend a neurologist who goes beyond the very basic screening?  (She's seen one doctor several times and another doctor a couple times and each visit is essentially a repeat of the previous meeting, including the exact same test.  

Please help.

Thanks

Hi HerGuy,

My father lives in Howard County MD, which is why I clicked on your post. He is not seeking a neurologist at this time, however, so I do not have any information to offer you. You might try posting on the "Spouse or Partner Caregiver" forum. That one is very active, and you might receive more responses.

Yours,

Friend
