Dr. Hemang Shah at Kernodle Clinic Neurology Department offers an Alzheimer's Disease Prevention Program. He wants to practice proactive brain health instead of reactive medicine.
This program is geared toward highly motivated individuals who are at risk of developing dementia. E.g. family members of a patient with dementia, individuals with subjective cognitive impairment, and individuals with risk factors for development of dementia. This program is not appropriate for individuals with a current diagnosis of dementia or significant cognitive impairments. A loved one of a patient with dementia can sign up for the program to learn prevention strategies to hopefully slow down the decline in the patient.
This program will include precision prevention activities that are covered by your insurance company such as:
This program will also provide monthly in-person educational sessions with Dr. Shah on Alzheimer's prevention as a group/shared medical visit. Each session will focus on a single theme. Session themes will include nutrition, physical activity, restorative sleep, cognitive training, stress management, vascular risk factor modifications, and building connections. Participants will have access to the presentation slides and resources after the meeting.
Your insurance company will be billed for labs and radiology when applicable.
We will provide information about local resources on brain-stimulating activities such as music, yoga, tai chi, theater, dance, sports, etc. We can also guide you to other local providers such as wellness coaches, mental health counselors, fitness trainers, etc.
This program will include services not covered by your insurance company. You will pay for this out of pocket as a monthly subscription fee. Some of the program features include:

We also perform therapeutic procedures such as Scrambler Therapy, Carpal Tunnel Injection, Occipital Nerve Block, Botox for chronic migraine, Trigger Point Injections, Botox for other medical conditions (e.g. blepharospasm, cervical dystonia, hemifacial spasm, post-stroke spasticity), VNS - Vagal Nerve Stimulator management for epilepsy, etc.
We provide a full range of general neurological care to our patients. We provide common neurological procedures and unique treatment options such as Scrambler Therapy.
Our mission is to provide you with personalized, high-quality care. We are dedicated to improving and maintaining your health through preventative care and treating chronic neurological diseases. We believe in integrating principles of neuroplasticity to achieve optimal health and well-being.
Dr. Shah, his mid-level providers, nursing staff, neurodiagnostic technicians, and scribes are well-trained. We work as a team to bring state-of-the-art services in a community setting. We offer a broad array of services geared to address today’s most common neurological illnesses.
We know there is no such thing as one-size-fits-all care, so we never use a one-size-fits-all approach to your diagnosis and management. We believe lifestyle modification and non-pharmacological treatments are essential parts of the treatment regimen. We keep you in the driver's seat and guide you to the path of optimal wellness.
