Florida doctor defies death after triple medical crises, urges stroke awareness
Dr. Tim Williams, a 69-year-old Florida physician who previously directed Delray Medical Center's Proton Therapy Institute, survived a fall that caused a brain bleed and a nine-day coma, underwent a bedside craniotomy, and endured a lengthy recovery before returning home. Nine months on, he’s about 80% back to normal, has shifted toward radiation oncology research, and credits Delray Medical Center’s staff and stroke expertise with saving his life. He emphasizes that anyone experiencing stroke symptoms should seek care at a stroke center to maximize chances of survival.
