Alzheimer’s treatment
Treatment for early Alzheimer’s
Newer treatments can slow early Alzheimer’s disease. They aren’t right for everyone, and they need careful safety monitoring. Dr. Hall helps you decide whether treatment makes sense and, if it does, manages it with you by video.

Who treatment is for
Treatment starts with confirming the diagnosis and stage.
These treatments are for people in the early stages, with mild cognitive impairment or mild dementia, whose testing confirms Alzheimer’s. If you haven’t been tested yet, that’s where we start.
How treatment works
Three parts of treatment and monitoring.
Make sure it’s a good fit
Confirm the diagnosis, review your health and medications, and get a starting MRI.
Start treatment
It’s given as an injection at home, after you’ve been shown how. Routine treatment doesn’t require trips to an infusion center.
Regular check-ins
Scheduled MRIs near home and video visits with Dr. Hall watch for side effects and how you’re doing.
Safety & monitoring
Monitoring is part of treatment.
The goal is to identify safety issues early and adjust treatment when needed.
Disease-modifying Alzheimer's treatments can cause changes called ARIA — areas of brain swelling or small amounts of bleeding that are often asymptomatic and detected on MRI. We manage that risk with scheduled MRI scans and clinical monitoring throughout treatment. If ARIA develops, the MRI findings and symptoms determine whether treatment continues, pauses, or stops.
Bleeding disorders, blood thinner use, and MRI-safety questions are part of what we ask before scheduling. Some answers mean another first step makes more sense, and we’ll say so plainly rather than book you in anyway.
Wondering if treatment could be an option?
A quick form tells us whether a visit makes sense. Dr. Hall reviews every request himself.
