Ahmed Koriesh: Celebrating Our Stroke Team and Award Recipients at CCF Florida
Ahmed Koriesh, Director of Hospital Neurology Service at Cleveland Clinic Florida, shared on LinkedIn:
”Speed that saves brain.
Delighted to recognize this month’s achievements across our stroke team at Cleveland Clinic Florida.
Our FAST Door-to-Needle performance continues to set the standard:
- 10 minutes – Dr. Paulina Birenbaum
- 12 minutes – Dr. Caitlin Brice
- 15 minutes – Dr. Paulina Birenbaum
These are not just fast times – they represent real patients, real emergencies, and real outcomes.
And equally important, recognizing excellence beyond speed:
Dr John Paul Sargent – Appreciation Award
For learning Spanish to better serve our patients – a powerful example of patient-centered care and commitment to our community.
At CCF Florida, excellence in stroke care means:
- Delivering rapid, high-quality treatment
- Building a culture of collaboration and accountability
- Going beyond metrics to improve the patient experience
Time is brain – but so is connection, communication, and compassion.
Proud of this team and what we continue to achieve together.”
