Memory Clinics in Partnership with Dr. Linda Lee North East Specialized Geriatric Centre (NESGC) proudly supports the delivery of Memory Clinics throughout Northeastern Ontario. These Memory Clinics are planned and delivered by Dr. Linda Lee, Director of the Memory Clinic at the Centre for Family Medicine Family Health Team. Memory Clinics are built on a specialized model of interprofessional care that is designed to build capacity for cognitive impairment and dementia in primary care teams. These clinics then link primary care teams to local geriatricians to provide ongoing support and consultation—a role filled by the NESGC Geriatrician, Dr. Jo-Anne Clarke. In 2013 and 2014, NESGC sponsored the delivery of five memory clinics in Northeastern Ontario. In 2014 the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care acknowledged the continued success of Dr. Lee and her team by bestowing upon Dr. Lee the coveted Minister’s Medal.
