Michel Mawad: How Does a Stroke Start?

Michel Mawad, Attending Interventional Neuroradiologist at LAU Medical Center-Rizk Hospital, shared on LinkedIn:

”How does a stroke start?

Recognizing the early warning signs is critical and can be life-saving.

The FAST method remains one of the most effective tools for early detection.

Raising awareness is the first step toward prevention and better outcomes.”
