Stroke: When Every Second Counts - with Dr. Jaspal Gill, Cardiologist and Clinical Research Fellow at the University of London

Strokes are one of the leading causes of long-term disability worldwide. Yet most people don’t know the difference between a mini-stroke and a major one—or how to spot the signs in time. 

In this episode, we explain what a stroke is, why it happens, and how you can act fast to minimize damage and save a life. From clots to bleeds, from BE FAST to full recovery—we’ll cover what you need to know and why your brain can’t afford to wait.

In this special 4-part series on heart diseases, we're going to give you something that's getting harder and harder to come by: time with a cardiologist. 

Access to medical care is a growing challenge—especially when it comes to specialists. In the U.S. today, a single cardiologist may be responsible for thousands of patients, and nearly half of all U.S. counties don’t even have one. 

We’re joined by Dr. Jaspal Gill, Cardiologist and Clinical Research Fellow at the University of London, to break down the fundamentals of the most common—and most critical—heart conditions: high blood pressure, heart attacks, stroke, and arrhythmia.
