  • They reveal a high frequency of psychiatric disorders like depression and anxiety associated with memory complaints.
  • These clinics are vital for dementia patient follow-up, diagnosis announcement, treatment initiation, and preventing hospitalizations.

    • Conclusions:

    • A significant limitation is the scarcity of qualified personnel for memory clinics.
    • A lack of adequate interest in early Alzheimer's disease screening remains a critical issue to address.
