Making San Francisco the Safest Place to Have a Stroke
"I’m not the first person to say it: In ischemic stroke, time lost is brain lost. Each minute of impaired blood flow to the brain kills more brain tissue.

By quickly treating stroke, we save lives and vastly improve quality of life." Learn more
