May is stroke awareness month and a stroke can change everything in an instant. But in many cases, it can also be prevented. Dr. Muhammad Alvi explains what you need to know about reducing your risk and protecting your brain health. At the WVU Rockefeller Neuroscience Institute, we are not just treating stroke. We are working to prevent it through early intervention, advanced care, and a team approach built around you. Know your risk factors. Act early. And do not wait for symptoms to take control of your health. If you have high blood pressure, diabetes, or a family history of stroke, now is the time to talk to a specialist. Because when it comes to stroke, timing is everything. #strokeawareness
