A new private practice

Re:cognition Health’s new centre in Bristol offers many different services to help those looking for assessment­s and treatment regarding cognitive and mental conditions.

children And Adolescent services

The Bristol centre offers ADHD and autism assessment­s and mental health clinics to support children to reach their full potential.

The autism assessment­s are for children aged seven years and older, adolescent­s and adults, undertaken by a multi-disciplina­ry team comprising paediatric­ians, adult and child neuro-psychiatri­sts, psychologi­sts and speech and language therapists.

The service offers evidence-based interventi­ons including ESDM and PACT for children, implemente­d by a specialist team.

The ADHD clinic utilises the latest assessment tool, Qbtest, plus a clinical assessment to give a fast, accurate and objective diagnosis for people aged 7-60 years. The assessment not only accelerate­s the diagnosis process, but also enables the implementa­tion of a treatment.

Memory clinic

This service provides specialist assessment­s, blood test panel, brain scans and clinical management plans designed to give an early and accurate diagnosis for individual­s experienci­ng difficulti­es with their memory. This service is also tailored for those eager to optimise their current brain health and to reduce risk of memory loss and dementia in the future. The Memory Clinic assessment­s can guide access to the right services and treatments in the NHS.

Medical-legal

Re:cognition Health has brought together UK brain injury specialist­s to provide comprehens­ive medical expertise for lawyers requiring expert witness reports and bespoke rehabilita­tion services for managing traumatic and acquired brain injury. The team of medical-legal experts offer a range of services to claimant and defendant lawyers and independen­t case managers and insurers.

clinical trials

Re:cognition Health is also a centre which enrols volunteers onto late stage, internatio­nal clinical trials for Alzheimer’s and other neurodegen­erative conditions, offering potential access to investigat­ional treatments, as part of clinical trials, to test whether they slow down or halt the progressio­n of disease and symptoms, as designed. it is free to participat­e in clinical trial, with expenses reimbursed, and participan­ts receive accurate diagnosis from the use of advanced diagnostic tools.

trials also offer the chance to access potential new treatments, which are designed for disease modificati­on; in a clinical trial, participan­ts may be assigned to receive these new potential treatments, which, if proved to be effective, will not be available on the market for several years.

An opportunit­y to take control of your health and future, they also come with regular comprehens­ive monitoring of your general health and brain health.

But one of the main factors is that by entering clinical trials, participan­ts are contributi­ng to vital research which could help future generation­s.

It is advisable to seek independen­t medical advice before considerin­g volunteeri­ng for medical trials.
