Stroke Prevention Screenings
10 Minutes That Can Save Your Life!
On Tuesday, April 19th, from 11:00 AM to 7:00 PM in the Convent Basement, St. Barnabas will be hosting stroke prevention screenings, sponsored by Precision Screening Plus. Long Island’s first and only locally owned and operated Stroke Screening Company, serving the Long Island community since 2001. Unlike other companies, immediate results and pictures will be available. Licensed Ultrasound Technologists will perform four non-invasive, painless ultrasound exams to determine your risk of Stroke, Aneurysm, Peripheral Vascular Disease and Osteoporosis. Your physician cannot order these tests without clear evidence of symptoms. Ironically, most people who suffer from a stroke or aneurysm never show signs or symptoms that a major catastrophe is about to occur. Individual tests are $60, any 3 for $135 and all 4 for $150. Please call Precision Screening Plus at 221-6543 to set up an appointment or if you would like any additional information.
