Welcome to the University of Virginia’s Memory/Adult Neuropsychology Division, in the Department of Neurology. The division consists of neurologists, neuropsychologists, nurses, and social workers with expertise in aging, memory, and behavioral medicine.  We provide consultation and management for a range of neurological and neurodegenerative disorders. We also maintain an active research program, through which we conduct clinical trials and federal and state funded studies.

Memory and Aging Care Clinic (MACC)

The University of Virginia’s Memory and Aging Care Clinic (MACC) has been recognized as
the model for dementia care across the state.

We take a patient and family-centered approach to providing high quality, compassionate, and comprehensive care for individuals with cognitive and memory problems.

We work closely with patients with Alzheimer’s disease, frontotemporal dementia, Lewy body disease, vascular and mixed dementias, and many other diseases. Our multidisciplinary clinical team includes neurologists, neuropsychologists, nurses, speech therapists, and social workers. We also collaborate with colleagues in neuroradiology and neurogenetics to provide specialized services on an individual basis.

Our clinic offers neuropsychological services in Spanish. During the clinical interview and testing are conducted in Spanish; interpreters are not used. The team utilizes tests and normative data that were specifically developed for use with Spanish-speaking patients from Latin American and/or Spain.

A referral from a medical provider is needed, and we will contact the patient or identified care partner to schedule he appointment.  For questions, please contact (434) 982-4363. A message can be left in Spanish on that line.
