MemoryCare – Parktown

MemoryCare – Parktown

MemoryCare Parktown is a dedicated memory clinic established in 2011 by Dr Ryan Fuller. Moreover, it stands as a leading centre in Johannesburg for the diagnosis and management of neurodegenerative and memory-related conditions. We offer specialist psychiatric and allied health services for individuals aged 16 and above. Consequently, each patient benefits from a truly multidisciplinary approach to care.

Our team comprises psychiatrists, neuropsychologists, clinical psychologists, occupational therapists, social workers, and community nurses. Together, we draw on evidence-based research to develop personalised care plans. Furthermore, we integrate continuous training and the latest assessment tools to ensure clinical excellence. In addition, MemoryCare Parktown prides itself on its system-wide collaboration, which brings diverse expertise to every patient interaction.

Since our founding, we have expanded our focus beyond traditional memory disorders. Therefore, we also treat depression, anxiety, bipolar mood disorders, and substance-related conditions through a systemic framework. Additionally, we emphasise family and caregiver education to support long-term outcomes. Ultimately, our motto “to be with” reflects our commitment to quality relationships and compassionate care when it matters most.
