Default Leesberg Hospital

I understand that Leesberg Hospital is a designated stroke center. Has anyone had any experience with this? My husband had a stroke last April and another "episode" just on Thursday. We are planning to be in TV February and March but I really want to know that we can make it to a stroke center within the window (2-3 hrs) if we need to. Also, does anyone know whether or not they have a neuro-interventionalist that can provide catheter treatment that can extent the window to 6-8 hrs if needed? The team here in Syracuse at University Hospital is amazing and I really want to find another.
