I have extensive experience in diagnosing and treating complex vascular conditions, including stroke, aneurysms, and carotid artery disease. My approach involves a comprehensive evaluation using advanced imaging techniques, such as MRI and CT angiography, to accurately identify the underlying cause. I then develop personalized treatment plans, which may include medication management, endovascular procedures, or surgical interventions, depending on the patient's specific needs and condition.

I stay current by regularly attending national and international conferences, participating in continuing medical education (CME) programs, and engaging in ongoing research. I also maintain active memberships in professional organizations such as the American Academy of Neurology (AAN) and the Society of Vascular and Interventional Neurology (SVIN), which provide access to the latest research, guidelines, and best practices in the field.

One challenging case involved a patient with a rare form of stroke caused by a dissection in the vertebral artery. The patient presented with severe neurological deficits, and the condition was complicated by the patient's history of anticoagulant use. I coordinated a multidisciplinary team to stabilize the patient and performed an endovascular procedure to repair the dissection. Post-operatively, I implemented a tailored rehabilitation plan, which significantly improved the patient's outcomes.

In a high-pressure environment, I prioritize patient care by maintaining clear communication with the multidisciplinary team and ensuring that each patient receives prompt and appropriate treatment. I use a triage system to prioritize patients based on the severity of their condition and the urgency of intervention. Additionally, I provide emotional support to patients and their families, ensuring they are informed and involved in the decision-making process.

To manage stress and workload, I practice time management techniques, such as prioritizing tasks and delegating when appropriate. I also make time for regular physical exercise and mindfulness practices to maintain my mental and physical well-being. Additionally, I foster a supportive work environment by collaborating closely with my colleagues and seeking opportunities for professional development and peer support.
