Understanding How Dementia Affects the Way We Think (with Dr. Anna Burke)

When most people hear the word dementia, they think of memory loss. But the truth is, dementia reaches far beyond forgetting names or misplacing keys. In this eye-opening episode, we sit down with Dr. Anna Burke, Geriatric Psychiatrist and Director of the Alzheimer's and Memory Disorders Division at Barrow Neurological Institute, to explore the full landscape of how dementia affects the way we think, reason, communicate, and experience the world. 

Dr. Burke brings a rare combination of clinical depth and compassionate clarity to one of the most misunderstood aspects of dementia, and by the end of this conversation, you'll have a much richer understanding of what your loved one may be experiencing, and why. Because when we understand what our loved ones are going through, we can show up for them in a whole new way.
