Dementia Preventive Care

My mission is to minimize the risk of dementia as much as possible for each patient. We do this with an evidence-informed proactive six month program that is built for people who are motivated and ready to act before it’s too late. Don’t just be afraid of dementia. Be proactive, start early and gain agency over your brain health.

Dementia Prevention Program

$1800 one time fee for six month program

WHAT’S INCLUDED

  • A six month structured, comprehensive, personalized dementia prevention plan

  • Three 90-minute in-person visits

  • Three 20-minute phone check-ins

  • All visits directly with Dr. Gajaweera

Visit 1 ASSESS

During our first visit we take time to get to know you—reviewing your neurologic exam, medical and family history, lifestyle, and goals for aging. You’ll leave with a personalized plan for comprehensive testing, which will include cognitive assessment, advanced labs, possible genetic testing, continuous glucose monitoring, body composition analysis, brain and cardiovascular imaging.

Visit 2 ANALYZE

During this second visit we review your testing results in detail. This may uncover hidden risks we weren’t aware of but the purpose here is to empower, not alarm. By knowing these risks we can then take targeted steps to mitigate their effects. Because brain health relies on whole body wellness, recommendations will also aim to optimize your:

  • fitness, strength and balance

  • nutrition

  • sleep

  • mental health

  • use of prescription medications and supplements

  • cardiometabolic, inflammatory and hormonal health

You won’t need to do it all at once but you’ll have a roadmap so that you know how to work smarter, not harder to gain agency over your brain health.

Visit 3 RESULTS

During this third visit we review your recommendations, your progress and a step by step plan on how to focus your ongoing efforts. Your customized Dementia Prevention Plan will guide you on what to prioritize to optimize your neurologic healthspan so you feel empowered, not overwhelmed.

Next Steps

Your Dementia Preventive Protocol will be provided to you in a step by step easy to follow written program.  Follow up visits at least every 6-12 months are recommended so we can review repeat testing and make appropriate shifts in strategy when needed.  Alternatively you can choose to take next steps independently or review them with your other care providers.  Either way, the Dementia Preventive Protocol gives you the detailed steps you need to take to mitigate your risk of dementia by optimizing your brain efficiency and resilience.
