    Dave and Mike offer excellent, up to date information on stroke related topics. Particularly in the area of telehealth and telerehab. Dr. Leung’s podcast is amazing…his research and SAYA program sounds incredible. So thankful to Know Stroke and Enable4us for bringing important topics for the stroke population to the forefront.
