MARS' memory service is ideal for those patients with significant risk factors for developing Alzheimer’s Disease or other dementias (e.g., a family history for dementia, Type II diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, etc.). At MARS, we recommend that people with significant risk factors for dementia get assessed before memory problems develop. Such a baseline measure can maximize the likelihood of early detection and this early intervention.
