Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
The memory and higher mental functions are best tested by a neuropsychologist. Short of that, you can meet a neurologist or a psychiatrist for a complete evaluation of the higher mental functions.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
