I chose to specialize in the field of stroke because it has so many different clinical manifestations and it overlaps with many other areas of medicine. This allows me to be a member of an inter-disciplinary team that works diligently to provide the highest level of care for patients and families who are dealing with stroke, transient ischemic attack and other cerebrovascular conditions, including brain aneurysms and vascular malformations.
Getting to see the progress that patients have made after they have partially recovered from a stroke is particularly rewarding, especially if I was present when they first arrived at the hospital within hours of their symptoms.
