Stroke is a medical condition caused by interrupted blood flow to the brain and can result in weakness, speech difficulty, or other neurological symptoms. At Neurology & Movement Center of Texas, we provide comprehensive stroke evaluation and long-term follow-up care for patients in Katy and surrounding communities.
A stroke occurs when blood flow to part of the brain is blocked (ischemic stroke) or when a blood vessel ruptures (hemorrhagic stroke). Both types require urgent medical attention.
After emergency treatment, ongoing neurological care is essential to reduce recurrence risk and support recovery.
Seek emergency care immediately if you experience:
Sudden weakness or numbness on one side
Sudden difficulty speaking or understanding speech
Vision changes
Severe headache
Sudden loss of balance or coordination
Time-sensitive treatment can significantly affect outcomes.
After a stroke or TIA (mini-stroke), neurological follow-up focuses on:
Identifying the cause
Optimizing blood pressure control
Managing cholesterol levels
Reviewing antiplatelet or anticoagulant therapy
Addressing lifestyle risk factors
Careful monitoring reduces the risk of future strokes.
Ongoing care may include:
Medication management
Coordination with physical, occupational, or speech therapy
Cognitive assessment
Management of mood changes
The goal is to maximize recovery and maintain independence.
Hospital discharge for stroke or TIA
New or worsening neurological symptoms
Questions about long-term medication management
Persistent weakness, speech changes, or memory concerns
Structured follow-up is critical for long-term stability.
Our clinic provides comprehensive stroke evaluation and follow-up care for patients in Katy, Cinco Ranch, Cypress, Fulshear, and West Houston. Every patient receives individualized assessment and risk-reduction planning focused on long-term neurological health.
