The second episode of From Care to Cure, a podcast from the Massachusetts General Hospital Frontotemporal Disorders Unit, is available now. This episode features an interview with Dr. Brad Dickerson, Director of the MGH FTD Unit. Dr. Dickerson explains what dementia is, how patient- and family-reported symptoms lead to the diagnosis of a clinical syndrome and why an accurate diagnosis is important because it provides the gateway to appropriate treatment, care and research opportunities.
We would like to thank Bernie Metzger for our beautiful music, an excerpt from Bernie’s composition Ramblings An FTD Journey, inspired by his wife Karen Zander’s journey with FTD.
Amy Almeida is our producer. Thank you to Sam Murdock for technical production assistance.
