Care for memory and cognitive loss, Alzheimer's disease, and complex neurologic conditions. Many patients come after seeing other specialists, seeking a diagnosis and a clear account of what it means for their lives. Others come while well, to understand and reduce their risk.
Dr. Devi diagnoses and treats disorders of memory, cognition, and complex neurologic illness, and works with people who are well to understand and reduce their risk.
She has cared for patients with neurologic illness since 1988. Having lost her mother and her sister to neurologic illness, she knows what these conditions mean for families as well as for patients.
Her practice rests on a careful history, a thorough examination, and testing suited to the question.
For those who are well but want to understand and reduce their risk for Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias—because of family history, an APOE result, or other concerns—a brain-health evaluation identifies what matters and what can be changed.
Some patients need continuity of care, coordination with caregivers, and direct physician involvement over time, including during travel. Dr. Devi provides this for a small number of patients, case by case.

“I am delighted to have Dr. Devi as a colleague in helping me deliver the best possible care to neurologically ill patients we have in common. She has been an ‘early adopter’ on many new trial drugs and other interventions, including TMS.”
— Samuel Gandy, MD, PhD · Mount Sinai Professor of Alzheimer's Disease Research, Professor of Neurology and Psychiatry“Dr. Devi is brilliantly trained in a variety of disciplines to diagnose and bring relief to patients with neurological disorders. She is the first specialist to whom most of us turn for solving complex diagnostic and therapeutic issues.”
