Dementia Specialists and Neurologists in Dallas

Families in Dallas often look for a neurologist when memory, thinking, or behavior changes need a medical evaluation. This page lists real, NPI-verified neurologists with Dallas addresses so you can start outreach with names, NPI numbers, and locations from public registry records.

This listing is informational only. It does not diagnose any condition, tell you which clinician to choose, or claim that any doctor, clinic, or agency endorses this service. For a broader local overview of in-home help, see the Dallas care guide.

NPI-verified neurologists in Dallas

The clinicians below are neurologists with National Provider Identifier (NPI) records that list a Dallas address. No geriatricians or geriatric psychiatrists appear in the verified records used for this directory, so the named listings here are neurologists only.

Registry addresses may be a clinic site or a mailing address. Confirm the current office location and phone number with the practice before you go. Phone numbers are not published on this page because they were not part of the verified records used here.

Neurologists on Harry Hines Boulevard

Three NPI-verified neurologists list addresses on Harry Hines Boulevard in Dallas, a concentrated medical-campus area many families already visit for hospital and specialty care.

• Quentin Adams - neurologist, NPI 1801836143, 5323 Harry Hines Blvd, Dallas, TX 75390
• Mark Agostini - neurologist, NPI 1164476792, 5323 Harry Hines Blvd, Dallas, TX 75390
• Syed Ahmed - neurologist, NPI 1508489766, 5303 Harry Hines Blvd, Dallas, TX 75390

Ask the scheduler which building or clinic to use, because Harry Hines Boulevard includes many medical facilities close together.

Neurologist on Mediterranean Drive

Nicholas Absalom is an NPI-verified neurologist whose Dallas street address is on Mediterranean Drive, outside the Harry Hines Boulevard corridor.

• Nicholas Absalom - neurologist, NPI 1770744112, 8750 Mediterranean Dr, Dallas, TX 75238

Call the practice to confirm that this street address is where patients are seen and to get current hours before you travel across town.

Dallas neurologists registered to P.O. boxes

Four NPI-verified neurologists are registered to Dallas post office boxes rather than a public street clinic address, so you should confirm the actual exam location before making an appointment.

• Stephanie Acord - neurologist, NPI 1417243379, PO Box 733784, Dallas, TX 75373
• Fernando Acosta - neurologist, NPI 1790714145, PO Box 733784, Dallas, TX 75373
• Ishan Adhikari - neurologist, NPI 1205129673, PO Box 734812, Dallas, TX 75373
• Satish Agadi - neurologist, NPI 1275724585, PO Box 650859, Dallas, TX 75265

Use the NPI number when you call your insurer or a referring clinician so you match the correct person, then ask for the street address of the clinic where new patients are seen.

Geriatricians and geriatric psychiatrists in Dallas

This directory does not currently list NPI-verified geriatricians or geriatric psychiatrists in Dallas, because those specialties were not in the verified records used here. Neurologists remain the named clinicians on this page.

If you specifically want geriatric medicine or geriatric psychiatry, ask your primary care clinician or the neurology office for a local referral. A neurology evaluation and a geriatric or psychiatry referral can happen in parallel. Neither this page nor a phone script can tell you which specialty is medically required.

What to ask when you call a Dallas neurology office

When you call, ask whether the neurologist evaluates memory and thinking changes, whether a referral is required, what insurance is accepted, and how long the new-patient wait currently is. The goal of the first call is logistics, not a diagnosis over the phone.

• Do you see patients for memory loss, thinking changes, or suspected neurodegenerative disease?
• Is a referral from primary care or another specialist required?
• What is the wait for a new-patient visit, and is there a cancellation list?
• Which insurance plans do you accept, including Medicare?
• What is the street address, building, and suite where we should arrive?
• What records, medication lists, imaging, or prior test results should we send ahead?
• May a family member attend, take notes, and share day-to-day examples?
• If mood, sleep, or behavior symptoms are part of the concern, do you coordinate with geriatric psychiatry or other specialties?
• Please confirm the clinician's NPI number so we have the right person.

Bring the NPI from this listing to the call. Offices can look different from mailing addresses, especially for clinicians registered to a P.O. box.

Home support while you wait for a specialist

In-home help can cover daily routines between neurology visits, but it is not a substitute for a medical evaluation. Many Dallas families add practical support after a hospital stay, during a long specialist wait, or when evenings and weekends are the hardest hours.

Memory care at home focuses on familiar routines, supervision, and cueing. Companion care can help with conversation, meals, and staying engaged. Personal care covers bathing, dressing, and similar daily tasks. Respite care gives family caregivers a planned break. If nights are unsafe or a hospital discharge is coming, ask about 24-hour live-in care or hospital discharge care.

Tell the neurology office what home support is already in place. Schedulers and social workers often want to know who can help the patient get to appointments and follow day-to-day instructions.

Alzheimer's information and research centers

Alzheimer's disease is the most common cause of dementia, and national public-health pages explain warning signs, care partners, and why a clinical evaluation matters. For a plain-language overview, see the CDC page on Alzheimer's disease and dementia.

Some families also look for research-oriented clinics in addition to a community neurologist. The National Institute on Aging explains how to find an Alzheimer's Disease Research Center. Ask any Dallas office you call whether they participate in research and whether a referral is needed. A research center listing is not an endorsement of this page, and joining a study is optional.

Texas programs that may help pay for long-term support

Medical specialty visits and in-home long-term support are often paid through different channels. Medicare may cover medically necessary doctor visits, while longer-term help at home may involve Medicaid or other state programs if a person meets the rules in effect at the time.

Texas Medicaid includes STAR+PLUS, a managed long-term services structure some adults use when they need help staying at home. For a general overview of that program, see this independent summary of Texas Medicaid STAR+PLUS. Program rules change, so confirm current eligibility and covered services with the state or a qualified counselor rather than treating this page as an application guide.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I find a neurologist in Dallas for memory concerns?

Start with NPI-verified neurologists who list Dallas addresses, including those on Harry Hines Boulevard and Mediterranean Drive in this directory, then call to confirm they evaluate memory and thinking changes. Ask your primary care clinician for a referral if the office requires one, and use the NPI number so you reach the correct person.

Why don't you list phone numbers for these Dallas neurologists?

Phone numbers were not included in the verified NPI records used for this listing, so this page does not invent them. Get the current number from your insurer, a referring clinician, or the practice, and confirm the street clinic location at the same time.

What should I ask when I call a Dallas neurology clinic?

Ask whether the neurologist evaluates memory and thinking changes, whether you need a referral, which insurance is accepted, how long new-patient waits are, and which street address to use. Also ask what records to send and whether a family member can attend. The call is for scheduling and fit, not for a phone diagnosis.

Does this page list geriatricians and geriatric psychiatrists in Dallas?

No. The verified records used here include neurologists only, so no Dallas geriatricians or geriatric psychiatrists are named on this page. Ask a primary care clinician or the neurology office for a referral if you want those specialties.

How can I confirm I have the right Dallas doctor?

Match the clinician's full name and NPI number, then ask the office to confirm the specialty and the address where patients are seen. That step matters for Harry Hines Boulevard listings, which sit in a dense medical area, and for P.O. box registrations, which may not be clinic sites.

Can in-home care in Dallas help while we wait for a specialist?

Yes. Practical help at home can support daily routines during a wait, after a hospital stay, or between follow-up visits, without replacing a medical workup. Families often look at memory care at home, companion care, personal care, or respite care, then tell the specialist's office what support is already in place.

Do these Dallas doctors endorse this website?

No. Names, specialties, NPI numbers, and addresses are listed from public NPI information so families can begin outreach. A listing is not a recommendation, affiliation, review, or endorsement by any named doctor, clinic, or agency.
