Manish Sharda, DO, an SSM Health Fond du Lac Regional Clinic family medicine physician, will be sharing a presentation on how brain games can help enhance a person’s memory, and prevent or slow down the progress of dementia. The free presentation will be hosted by the Waupun Senior Center, 301 E. Main Street, at 1 pm on Tuesday, July 11. Games are among the many activities that can keep the human mind entertained and engaged. But more importantly, games can help keep our brains stimulated. This is extremely important for older adults, especially those at risk of dementia. “Board games are a great way to exercise our brains, improve memory, and cultivate relationships,” according to Dr. Sharda. “Let’s spend an afternoon together to experience the benefits of board games on memory.” Dr. Sharda specializes in family medicine and sees patients of all ages. He offers a full range of general family medicine; preventive health care; annual physicals; well-child checks and immunizations; women’s health, and care for acute and chronic illness and general medical concerns. A graduate of the Touro College of Osteopathic Medicine in New York, Dr. Sharda completed his family medicine residency at Swedish Covenant Hospital in Chicago.
