Abstract
Nancy Isenberg, M.D., MPH, is a neurologist at Swedish Edmonds who cares for patients with Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia. She is the medical director of the Center for Healthy Aging, where patients and their families receive comprehensive care that goes beyond treating dementia to address the emotional, physical and social challenges that come with it.
June is Alzheimer’s & Brain Awareness Month, so we called her up to find out what you need to know about the disease, what makes her approach to care different and what you can do to keep your brain sharp.
