Boone offers a full spectrum of services to treat those who have suffered from a stroke including neurology, neurosurgery, neuroradiology, an echo vascular lab, inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation.
Boone Health has also received the American Heart Association’s Get With The Guidelines® Stroke Gold Plus - Stroke Quality Achievement Award for their commitment to ensuring stroke patients receive the most appropriate treatment according to nationally recognized, research-based guidelines.
