DescriptionStroke doesn’t discriminate; it affects people of all ages, ethnicities and backgrounds. Fortunately, most strokes are preventable, and you can take steps now to reduce your risk. Begin by understanding the risk factors and find out how you stack up.

Screening includes: • Diabetes screening • Blood pressure and pulse • Full lipid profile • Risk-reduction plan • Results counseling including total cholesterol, HDL, LDL and triglycerides

You will leave the screening with your results and a plan of action!

A 12-hour fast is required for accurate results. Even though this is a fasting blood test, please take any morning medication as usual with a sip of water.
