At Newdays we know how important it is to get these conditions diagnosed early. A recent analysis reported that as much as 92% of people living with mild cognitive impairment go undiagnosed. While our clinicians provide clinical assessments of your cognition, most of our customers come to NewDays with a diagnosis from their primary care physician or a neurologist and we always recommend that people experiencing challenges with their cognition to work with their primary care physician for comprehensive care.
However, if you do not have a formal diagnosis, our clinicians will evaluate if you meet the criteria for MCI or dementia. They can provide a preliminary diagnosis and will recommend a follow up with your physician to rule out any co-occuring medical diagnoses and purse neuroimaging and other potential recommendations.
