Stroke Evaluation & Follow-Up

A stroke occurs when blood flow to part of the brain is blocked or when a blood vessel ruptures.

Both types require urgent medical attention. After initial treatment, ongoing follow-up is important to reduce the risk of another stroke and support recovery.

Seek emergency care immediately if you notice:

• Sudden weakness or numbness, especially on one side 
• Difficulty speaking or understanding speech 
• Vision changes 
• Severe headache 
• Loss of balance or coordination 

Early treatment can significantly improve outcomes.

After a stroke or TIA (mini-stroke), follow-up care focuses on preventing future events and supporting recovery.

This may include:

• Identifying the underlying cause 
• Managing blood pressure and cholesterol 
• Reviewing medications such as antiplatelets or anticoagulants 
• Addressing lifestyle risk factors 

Ongoing care plays a key role in reducing future stroke risk.

After a stroke or TIA, ongoing care is essential to support recovery and reduce the risk of future events.

Follow-up care may include:

• Medication management and adjustment 
• Monitoring for new or worsening symptoms 
• Coordination with physical, occupational, or speech therapy 
• Cognitive and memory evaluation 
• Support for mood and emotional changes 

We also help guide long-term prevention by managing risk factors and ensuring your treatment plan is optimized over time.

Our goal is to help you recover as fully as possible while maintaining independence and long-term stability.
