Hello, everybody. Welcome to Health Chatter. And today's show is a special show on a stroke survivor. And you'll hear his story. We'll get to that in a minute. Previously, beforehand, we had done a show on stroke and all the information that you, the listening audience, should really know about it, the different types of stroke, how to prevent a stroke, treat a stroke and manage it. But today will be special because we'll hear from somebody who's gone through it. So stay with us for a second. We've got a great crew, as always, that keeps us going and gives us all the background information we need, does all the technical work for us. We have Sheridan Nygaard. who's doing our recording today. She also does some of our background research for our team and also our marketing.
Maddie Levine-Wolf, Aaron Collins, Deandra Howard, also three of our researchers. Matthew Campbell, who normally does our production stuff. He's overseas right now. He'll be back, I believe, next week. So thanks to everybody. You guys are really, really wonderful. It's really a It's a pleasure working with this crew because they really know how to do it. And it's really, really nice. And then, of course, there's Clarence Jones. Clarence and I have been doing this for a while. We're great colleagues. We love doing this. We love chatting about different topics in health. And today's topic is no different. So thank you, Clarence. And then also Human Partnership is our partner. is our community-oriented group that looks at a variety of different health issues in the community.
And they are our sponsor for Health Chatter. So many thanks to them. You can see more information about them at their website, humanpartnership.org, O-R-G. So thank you to everybody. Today, we have two guests with us, Dr. Haitham Hussain, who worked with us on the previous show on stroke. And he was the one who recommended that we also talk to a patient. So Haitham, thank you for coming. helping us put this show together. And I'm gonna turn it over to you because I have a sense that you have a nice relationship with our other guests. So I'll let you introduce them.
Thank you very much, Stan. And hello to everyone. Thank you, Clarence, for having us again here. I am a stroke neurologist at the University of Minnesota. And about a year ago, Excuse me. About a year ago, we had a stroke patient who was very upset with us because he was discharged from the hospital before we talked to him about what exactly caused his stroke and... The beginning of the relationship was a little bit rough, but I saw him in the clinic after his discharge and kind of clarified the misunderstanding. And we became friends since then. And I like my friend slash patient because of... how eloquent he is, and being an African American man, he taught me and also my colleagues and trainees at the University of Minnesota a lot.
He taught us a lot about how the African-American community view the healthcare system and how we can approach an African-American person who is sick in a way to build trust because trust is severely lacking. And I'm also the current board president of the American Heart Association. I brought my patient friend to the American Heart Association meeting and he shared his story with them. I'm always very pleased and happy to let him talk and tell his story because there is no way that any of us can really experience and explain as much as he can. So without further ado, I introduce Tony Moore, my good friend. And thank you, Tony, for being here and being generous with your time. And I know sometimes this is a little bit traumatic to go over the story of what happened to you, but I see great good come out from you sharing the experience.
Well, hello and thank you. So this is new to me. I have friends that do podcasts, but it's a little bit different because I don't know where to start here. But I want to say thanks to everyone for even inviting me to come and share my story in some narrative once again. So, yeah.
