Stroke is an emergency. Don’t ignore the symptoms as to access treatment you need to be seen immediately. 🚨 @gloshospitals Stroke unit currently based at CGH and we refer on for thrombectomy @NbTstroke . @Deborah71247971 @HargrovesDavid
Raised in #PMQs today the case of Dr John Stephens, whose remarkable recovery from a serious stroke demonstrates unequivocally why access to mechanical thrombectomy must be expanded. It's a genuine gamechanger. I'll continue to work with the @TheStrokeAssoc on this. @Johnnieboys
