Dementia Talk

September 17, 2025 by Staff Writer

Join Dr. Edward Hoffer at the Mattapoisett Free Public Library, 7 Barstow St., on Tues., 9/23 at 6:30 PM as he discusses Navigating Dementia: what it is, when to suspect it, the tests your doctor should perform to investigate it, the available therapies, and how to prevent it.  

Dr. Hoffer resides on the SouthCoast. He earned his under­graduate degree at MIT, received his MD from Harvard, and completed his residency and cardiology fellowship at Mass General Hospital. He was in private practice for 40 years, combined with research on medical informatics at MGH. Dr. Hoffer continues to work part-time at the MGH Lab of Computer Science on AI, aiming to assist doctors in making more accurate diagnoses. He is the author of the book “Prescription for Bankruptcy” and a frequent con­tributor of topical and helpful medical articles to The Wanderer. This program is free and open to all.
