Hello - new to the group. Does anyone know where Dr Richard Isaacson is practicing? I thought he had joined Florida Atlantic but when I search for him, it seems he’s no longer there. Thanks!

Welcome Twin517,

Thank you for joining our site and posting in the forum. This 2022 link below may be of interest to you and indicates Dr Richardson was affiliated with Florida Atlantic University's Medical School's Alzheimer's research and prevention clinic last year: Focusing on the Future of Neurology at IFN 2022: Richard Isaacson, MD

However, a search of the FAU directory does not come up with his name in any current activity, so he may not be currently practicing there.

You might get more relevant information from other users by sharing a little more about yourself and what information you are specifically looking for. Are you possibly searching for a memory evaluation or for prevention? Dr. Isaacson has written The Alzheimer's Prevention & Treatment Diet: Using Nutrition to Combat the Effects of Alzheimer’s Disease if this might be helpful to you.

Additionally, as a Support Team Intern, I can share several tools & resources to help you get the most out of your experience if you would like to explore the site in more detail. The Primer is a detailed and informative resource written by a practicing M.D. with ApoE4/4. It includes information about the biochemistry of the ApoE4 gene and offers a variety of research-based prevention strategies.

Some helpful tips to navigate the site include the How-To Guide. It includes topics such as navigating the forum, private messaging, and searching. One great tip is using the quote (") button when replying to a post. Using the button will automatically alert the member of your response.

Again, I am so glad you joined our forum. I look forward to hearing from you in the future. Please feel free to reach out anytime if you have further questions or need any assistance.

Warmly,
Angie

Thank you for your reply and help, Angie.
I recently discovered I am a 4/4 through 23&me, along with my sisters (one being my identical twin). We are now on this journey and have found this site to be incredibly helpful, albeit a little overwhelming. We are all in our mid 40’s and have led relatively healthy adult lives so now we are just tweaking our diets and exercise based on the research we’ve done so far. Ideally we would all love to be patients of a prevention clinic where we can be evaluated and followed. Which brings me to my search for Dr. Isaacson. We love his approach and would be very interested to hopefully, one day, be his patients or at least speak to him about our situations. Alternatively, if anyone has recommendations for other prevention clinics we would love to hear their experiences.

Thank you!

Your very welcome. The links I sent you will help in navigating the site and once you've had a little time to explore, it becomes much less overwhelming! One tip for your search might be to explore the wiki page which has a link to APOE4 aware practitioners. apoe4 aware practitioners I'm glad you've found this site... there is so much great knowledge on prevention. I personally got a lot of information from Dr Bredesens' book "The End of Alzheimer's" that has been very helpful.
