Frequently Asked Questions
The first 4.5 hours after symptom onset is the window in which clot-busting therapy works best. Reaching a stroke-ready hospital within this period dramatically improves recovery, so call an ambulance at the first sign of facial droop, arm weakness or slurred speech.
No. A large share of our disc and canal-stenosis procedures are performed through keyhole or endoscopic approaches, with most patients walking the same evening.
Yes, you can share your imaging through our online second-opinion service and receive a written opinion from our neuro board within 48 working hours.

Patient Stories
Treated in this department
