A prominent national health clinic diagnosed Alan* with early Alzheimer's and told him
to quit his job.
When Alan contacted Dr. Burgess, he thought his career as a podiatrist was
over. He kept forgetting essential details during his work day, and he was
afraid that his inability to pay attention to his work was falling to an unsafe level.
If he had followed the health clinic's advice, he would have prematurely retired before
determining whether he could function effectively at work.
After a few months of neurofeedback training, Alan is back at work.
He reports that his mental capacities have greatly improved. He feels
sharper and more alert, and he is having fewer memory problems.
