Cognitive Assessment
You've read the same paragraph 3 times over.
Get your memory measured, then talk it through with a doctor.
A 15 minute assessment at home, followed by 30 minutes with a GP who has already read your results and your health history.
Your memory is the one thing you've never measured
What you get included
3 things, and a doctor who has read all of it.
A detailed health questionnaire
Sleep, alcohol, exercise, medication, mood, stress, medical history, and what you have actually noticed. You complete it after booking. Your doctor reads it before your appointment.
The cognitive assessment
15 minutes at home on your computer.
It tests memory, attention and processing speed.
Unlike most memory checks, it measures how accurately you remember, not just whether you remembered.
30 minutes with your doctor
WHY PEOPLE BOOK THIS
You've noticed something, and it hasn't gone away.
Losing words or reading the same paragraph three times. Blanking on a name you have known for years.
It doesn't feel like enough to take to your GP, and it's too persistent to keep ignoring.
So most people do one of two things.
Decide it's just the job and carry on, or look it up at midnight and close the tab.
Neither of those tells you anything.
This gives you a proper look at it, with someone qualified to say what it means.
By video, at a time you choose when you book. Your doctor has read everything in advance, so the half hour goes on what your results mean and what to do next.
You will also get your assessment results included after your consultation.
What youR RESULTS CAN TELL YOU
Your assessment gives a score across several areas of memory and thinking, measured against expected performance.
Your doctor then reads that score alongside everything else. Your sleep. Your medication. Your stress and the recovery you are not getting. Recent bloods, if you have them. Your family history. Where you are hormonally.
That context is the point.
A score on its own tells you very little.
Most people score in the normal range.
That is a useful result, not a wasted one. It means what you are experiencing is real, and the cause is somewhere we can look. Usually this can lead back to sleep, stress, thyroid, blood pressure, blood sugar, alcohol, mood, medication or hormonal change.
If your results suggest something worth investigating further, your doctor will tell you clearly and explain exactly is suggested next.

You will never be sent a result and left to work out what it means on your own. A doctor reads it, in the context of your life, and gives you a plan you can act on.
You might recognise yourself here.
You've noticed a change
Recall, focus, or the sense that thinking clearly takes more effort than it used to. You still perform. It just costs more than it did.
It runs in your family
You cannot change your family history.
You can know your own starting point, and put your energy into what is within your control.
Is it me? Is it stress? Is it my hormones?
Changes in memory and concentration are common around perimenopause, and they are frequently dismissed. This is a structured way to look at what is happening.
You track your health
You might measure your heart, your fitness, your biological age. This is the same idea, for the organ everything else depends on.

Frequently asked questions
Is this a test for dementia?
No. This is a screening assessment, not a diagnostic test. It cannot confirm or rule out dementia or any other condition.
It gives an indication of how you performed on the day, which your doctor interprets alongside your history and your symptoms.
What if my results are normal but I still feel foggy?
Then we take that seriously and look at why.
A normal score does not mean nothing is going on.
Most causes of brain fog do not show up on a cognitive test, which is exactly why the consultation matters more than the number alone.
What if something concerning shows up?
Your doctor will explain what it means and what should happen next. If you need assessment through the NHS, we will say so and write to your GP with your consent. This service sits alongside your NHS care and does not replace it.
Who should not book this?
Anyone under 18, anyone who already has a diagnosis of dementia or mild cognitive impairment, and anyone currently very distressed about their memory. In those cases your GP is the right first step.
How long does it take?
About an hour of your time in total.
15 minutes for the questionnaire,
15 min for the assessment,
30 minutes for your consultation.
