EIRMC physician explains to a stroke patient how quick response saved her life.

EIRMC interventional radiologist, Dr. Chris Harker, shows a stroke patient brain scans from the night she came to EIRMC suffering stroke symptoms and, ultimately, survived an ischemic stroke event with no loss of ability. Dr. Harker explains what was going on in her head and why she is lucky that her husband realized what was happening and acted quickly.

The Post Register's Zach Kyle was there to report on her story and EIRMC's recent designation as a Primary Stroke Center. Read the story by clicking on pages A1 and A5.
