Dementia Untangled

Connecting Parkinson’s Disease and Dementia (with Dr. David Shprecher)


Listen Later

Inspired by his own experience with a movement disorder, Dr. David Shprecher, a neurologist and director of movement disorders at Banner Sun Health Research Institute, shares with us his passion for serving the dementia community and more specifically, those diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease dementia. With about 50% of people diagnosed with Parkinson’s developing dementia, concern is high for this population. Experts are working to determine what can be done to identify these changes early.

We also discuss how to care for your loved one on this journey.
