Shepherd Center Radio

In the United States, more than 795,000 strokes occur each year. Stroke can happen to anyone at any age. In fact, research shows strokes are on the rise among younger people. So, it's important to know the risk factors and work to prevent those that can be managed, such as high blood pressure and high cholesterol. If you or a loved one experiences a stroke, early and intensive rehabilitation is key to achieving the best outcomes. That is why Shepherd Center provides a full continuum of stroke services – from inpatient rehabilitation to outpatient care. Ford Vox, M.D., is here to explain Shepherd Center's goal - to give patients their best chance for returning to what they love to do.
