Memory Disorder Center at the Alexian Brothers Neurosciences Institute

Everyone has occasional memory lapses. Can’t remember where you parked your car? Forgot your neighbor’s name? But when memory loss starts interfering with daily activities, it may be time to seek the assistance of professionals who specialize in memory problems and memory disorders. Early and accurate diagnosis is key for successful memory loss treatments.

Commitment to Excellence

The Memory Disorder Center at the Alexian Brothers Neurosciences Institute in Chicago’s Northwest suburbs is committed to providing the very best care that today’s technology and clinical investigation has to offer. The Memory Disorder Center offers diagnostic expertise, cutting-edge treatments, and research for an array of memory problems arising from diverse medical causes. Some memory loss causes include circulatory problems, infection, toxin exposure, and neurodegenerative diseases (e.g., Alzheimer's disease). 

Access to the Exceptional

The Memory Disorder Center is led by Dr. Forchetti, a pioneer in memory loss treatments with over 20 years of experience in the diagnosis and treatment of dementia-related Alzheimer’s disease. Our memory disorder experts perform a thorough evaluation of cognitive impairment, behavior changes, and intellectual decline to reach a prompt and accurate diagnosis and provide a customized memory loss treatment plan.    

Family members play an integral role in the process, as they can observe and report on the patient’s memory health status. Our caring professionals also work closely with the patient's personal physician to determine the cause of the memory problem and identify the appropriate treatment.

Persons with any of the following memory loss symptoms should consider an appointment with our memory disorder experts:

  • Having trouble concentrating
  • Putting things where they don’t belong
  • Change in personality and behavior, such as moodiness
  • Forgetting important dates
  • Getting lost or difficulty finding familiar locations
  • Struggling with simple tasks
  • Changes in complex problem solving abilities
