CHI St. Vincent and the Arkansas Neuroscience Institute are not only committed to treating strokes, they're committed to preventing them as well.

"ANI is a healthcare providing institute, but it is also an educational institute," Dr. Ali Krisht, Neurosurgery, said.

Seminars are held at ANI on a regular basis. Dr. Krisht said they do it for free for physicians in the community, and the team will present a list of lectures that will help doctors in the community manage these patients.

"It will also provide information to general practitioners on how to look at risk factors, how to evaluate minor symptoms that may lead to major deficits," said Dr. Krisht.
