The Recode protocol
The ReCODE® Protocol serves as the foundation of Dr Richard's personalized approach to cognitive health. Rather than focusing on a diagnosis alone,
the evidence-informed ReCode® Protocol is designed to identify and address the many factors that may contribute to cognitive decline.
Because every patient is unique, Dr Richard develops individualized recommendations based on your unique health history, laboratory findings, lifestyle, and goals -
Not an one-size-fits-all-treatment plan.

Meet Dr Richard Chen
When you're searching for answers about memory loss, who you choose matters.
You want a physician with experience - but you also want someone who understands what your family is going through.
For Dr. Richard Chen, this work is deeply personal. He watched his own father live with Alzheimer's disease and experienced firsthand the heartbreak of watching someone he loved gradually lose memories, independence, and pieces of the life they once enjoyed.
He also witnessed the enormous emotional and physical toll it took on his mother as his father's primary caregiver.
That experience changed him. It also shaped the way he practices medicine.
Today, Dr Richard combines decades of clinical experience with advanced training in functional medicine and the ReCODE® Protocol to help patients and families take a more proactive approach to cognitive health.
His goal isn't simply to treat a diagnosis. It's to help people remain engaged in the moments that matter most -
- to enjoy meaningful conversations,
- stay connected to the people they love, &
- maintain the highest possible quality of life for as long as possible
Because every family deserves a physician who is willing to listen, look deeper, & explore every reasonable opportunity to support brain health.
