Sussex Premier Health, Hastings: Important update for patients with upcoming appointments

Our Memory Loss Assessment at Sussex Premier Health

Small lapses in memory can creep into your life before you fully notice them. Forgetting names, losing track of conversations, or struggling with familiar tasks can leave you searching for answers rather than reassurance alone. Here at Sussex Premier Health, we offer patients in Sussex, UK a private memory loss assessment that looks beyond surface symptoms and takes time to understand what is really happening. While NHS memory clinics are readily available and always an option, our assessment explores your history, thinking skills, and overall health in greater depth, with consultant-led care throughout. Explore how our structured memory loss assessment works and how it can help you pave a path forward.

Understanding the Difference Between Private and NHS Memory Assessments

Alongside your memory evaluation and diagnostic planning, the breadth of our assessment includes an extensive review of your entire medical history and detailed optimisation of the medicines you need.

Every aspect of the assessment is designed to identify the root of your symptoms, detect early signs of dementia, and improve your wellbeing. Because we have the ability to organise investigations privately and start urgent medicines all within the same day when appropriate, you can expect a more rapid pathway to onward testing and treatment.

Why us

  • Fast access to treatment when you need it
  • Internationally and nationally renowned consultants
  • Clear, inclusive pricing

A Closer Look at Our Memory Evaluation Process

If you or a loved one is experiencing cognitive decline, an evaluation is the first step in determining the degree of care moving forward. When you schedule your in-depth memory loss assessment here at Sussex Premier Health, you can expect a single, comprehensive specialist appointment focused on diagnosis and a practical plan. Here’s what we include in our memory screening test:

  • 1-Hour Consultation – You and your carer will meet face-to-face with our specialist for 60 minutes to discuss your current situation.
  • Clinical Interview – Our team will investigate your symptoms, daily function, mood, and sleep patterns to understand the impact on your life.
  • Cognitive Testing – You’ll undergo a formal assessment using the Addenbrooke’s Cognitive Examination (ACE) to measure your thinking skills and mental clarity.
  • Physical Exam – The specialist will perform a body check to find medical issues that might cause or add to your confusion.
  • Medication Check – We’ll look at your prescriptions and supplements to see if any medicines have an effect on your alertness or memory.
  • Result Review – Your doctor will examine any previous blood tests or brain scans you have already finished to see the full picture.
  • Immediate Findings – You’ll receive a clear summary and a likely diagnosis on the same day you leave our clinic.
  • GP Letter – We send a report to your local doctor with our findings so they can help manage your health.

Choose The Memory Clinic at Sussex Premier Health

When memory changes start to interfere with your everyday life, The Memory Clinic here at Sussex Premier Health will provide clarity, accurate diagnostics, and thoughtful decision‑making at every stage of your care. We leverage a range of advanced neuropsychological tests to help distinguish whether your memory problems are linked to normal age‑related changes, mild cognitive impairment (MCI), or dementia. We also prioritise your mood and mental health. Since depression can affect memory and cognition, it can closely resemble early dementia. We offer personalised care to address depression, which can lead to better cognitive function, especially for those with Alzheimer’s or related conditions.

Here are several reasons patients choose The Memory Clinic for assessment and care:

  • Fast Clinical Access – You’ll receive quick entry to our specialist services to begin your care plan without any unnecessary or stressful delays.
  • Compassionate Consultant Care – Our specialists maintain prestigious reputations both across the UK and internationally for their work in brain health and ageing.
  • Transparent Fixed Pricing – A total cost of £450 covers your clinical time and GP report to prevent any hidden financial surprises later.
