Very good visit on a difficult topic. 3 assistants helped. All were courteous, knowledgeable, and helpful. Dr Geldmacher is excellent, has a great team and knows what needs to be done. I am very happy with this. Thank you!

I was very pleased with everything about my visit. It’s a comfortable environment. The nurse and doctor was very nice and explained everything that they thought I needed to know after answering all kinds of questions and talking the cognitive test. I’m very grateful and excited to be included in this trial. It gives me hope that although this might not help me personally because of my having the APOE4 genes, it might be able to help someone else in the future and that’s what’s important.
