Old Aged, Suffers From Cognitive Function. Diagnosed Vascular Dementia. How To Treat It?
My 97 year old father s doctor is retiring this month and I need to find a new doctor for him. His health is still pretty good, but his cognitive function suffers. His doctor said it is vascular dementia. I need to find a suitable doctor for him. Any suggestions?

Hi,
If your doctor is retiring this month, then, he will be substituted with another doctor. You can discuss the case of your father with the new doctor and keep follow up with him.
The medical records of your father should be taken from the old doctor to submit to the new one as per reference.
Hope the new doctor will assist your father the same as the old one did!
