AIN Cognitive Assessment Center

The AIN Cognitive Assessment Center offers a comprehensive evaluation of patients exhibiting signs of cognitive impairment. This is especially important since early diagnosis and treatment can assist in delaying the progression of dementia. Under the direction of board-certified neurologist Nader Warra, DO, we conduct detailed evaluations and address concerns about all forms of dementia, including Alzheimer's disease.
The skilled AIN team will develop personalized treatment options and a patient plan of care designed to improve quality of life. The goal of the AIN Cognitive Assessment Center is to educate the patient and family by connecting them with resources that support the plan of care and provide them with peace of mind.

What to Expect
