The RUSH University System for Health is nationally recognized for its delivery of timely, effective stroke care and expertise in treating some of the most complex stroke cases. Within the past year, three multidisciplinary subspecialty clinics were opened at RUSH to provide an even greater level of specialty stroke care for patients.
Rima Dafer, MD, is a vascular neurologist and the director of the Comprehensive Outpatient Cerebrovascular Diseases Clinic at RUSH University Medical Center. She has been a principal investigator on numerous clinical trials in acute stroke intervention and secondary stroke prevention. Her clinical interests center around stroke occurrence in young adults and the association of stroke and atrial fibrillation.
“Our stroke-cardiology and stroke-neurosurgery clinics provide patients with a personalized individualized care plan tailored to their unique needs depending on their condition. And our stroke prevention clinic plays such an important role in helping patients understand very simple risk factors that aid in primary stroke prevention.”
