Dr.Michael Gordon Michael Gordon, MD, MSc, FRCPC, Medical Program Director, Palliative Care, Baycrest Geriatric Health Care System, Professor of Medicine, University of Toronto, Toronto, ON.

In the winter and spring of 2012 I was privileged to be part of the executive working group that organized the fourth Canadian Conference on the Diagnosis and Treatment of Dementia (CCCDTD4) which took place in May 2012. The process as described in both of the initial publications that came out in the fall of 2012 included many participants from all of those physician groups involved in caring for those at risk of dementia, as well as those not-for-profit organizations involved in educating the public.
