Dr. Evans:
After the first stroke, what do we do to as quickly as possible change somebody’s risk of another stroke? When I educate non-neurologist doctors about stroke, it’s always about the critical nature of responding to minor strokes and warnings of strokes just as aggressively as we respond to a catastrophic stroke because it’s always that second one we need to prevent.
