Overview
I am a vascular neurologist, and my passion is to help patients suffering from strokes, maximize their recovery, improve quality of life, and prevent recurrent strokes. Stroke is a sudden and often unexpected event that is life changing for many. In my clinical practice, I care for stroke patients along the continuum from the hospital to the clinic setting. My approach to clinical care is to get to know the person I am treating, establish their priorities for their medical care, and work with them to identify strategies to address their concerns and achieve desired outcomes.
