Dr. Haris Kamal believes he’s found a “jewel” in the short time he’s been part of Memorial’s neurosciences program. That’s how he describes the compassionate care, cutting-edge technology, excellent outcomes, and the collegial work environment within a comprehensive neurovascular program. “Patient-centric care and working together to deliver the best outcomes is our sole focus. That includes EMT services, neurointerventional suite staff, and all the members of the Emergency medicine, Neurology, and Neurosurgery teams,” said Dr. Kamal.
A neurointerventionalist that specializes in stroke and blood vessel disorders in the brain and neck, Dr. Kamal feels privileged to make an immediate and lasting impact on his patient’s lives. Many of Memorial’s minimally invasive, catheter-based procedures now use a tiny artery in the wrist to treat brain aneurysms, place stents or remove clots, a newer approach Dr. Kamal says is safer, efficacious, and more comfortable for patients who can now go home the next day.
“I love seeing patients walk into my clinic back to their normal self again after initially presenting to me with paralysis or loss of speech from a stroke. It’s that gratification that makes the sleepless nights and late hours worth doing.”
