New Hope For Alzheimer’s

In “New Hope for Alzheimer’s,” you will meet Gayatri Devi, MD, a neurologist and author of The Spectrum of Hope: An Optimistic and New Approach to Alzheimer’s Disease. Through his work with Alzheimer’s patients for nearly a quarter-century, Dr. Devi has witnessed the great changes in how the disease is perceived and treated. Dr. Devi sits down with Bottom Line President Sarah Hiner to discuss how we are now able to diagnose the disease even when symptoms are very mild and promising new medications that can slow its progression. What is needed, Dr. Devi suggests, is a shift in public perception away from Alzheimer’s as a death sentence and toward one of hope.
