Neurologist — MindSpan SOUTH BAY

Noor Sachdev, MD

Dr. Sachdev is a board-certified neurologist with dual certification in vascular neurology, fellowship-trained at Columbia University. With over a decade specializing in dementia, Alzheimer's, and cognitive disorders, he brings subspecialty-level memory care to South Bay - the kind of focused expertise that simply isn't available at a general neurology practice.
