Grateful for Every Step Together: A Sincere Thank You to Our Companions on RTHK’s “Healing Hands 2026”
Following the broadcast of the RTHK episode 《醫生與你 - 醫學．人》「與中風者同行」(Healing Hands 2026: Walking Alongside Stroke Patients), the HKU Stroke team has received an outpouring of heartfelt responses. This episode not only chronicles the journey of Dr. Gary Lau and our team in driving stroke prevention, rehabilitation, and medical education innovation, but also captures the shared reflections of key companions along the way:
"I actually understand very well—everything you are doing right now, I have been through myself. You simply want to excel in your teaching, and you truly want to help patients."
— Professor C.S. Lau, Dean of HKUMed, The University of Hong Kong
"Being able to take a leisurely walk and chat like this is by no means a given for many stroke survivors. Walking alongside them is something I am truly grateful for."
— Dr. Derek Wong, Neurosurgeon / Programme Host
"Today, smartphone or tablet cameras can monitor movements using AI. We collaborated with HKU Engineering, The Hong Kong Society for Rehabilitation, and colleagues from the Hospital Authority to co-develop the SmartRehab platform, with the vision of bringing rehabilitation right into the home."
— Dr. Gary Lau, Director of HKU Stroke, HKUMed, The University of Hong Kong
"Be responsible for yourself, and be responsible for your family. If you don't recover, how can you face yourself?"
— Mr. Eric Choi, Stroke Survivor
"Dr. Lau inspired us at that time. In fact, besides providing medical support within the hospital, we can also help patients outside the hospital."
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Professor C.S. Lau for his guidance and encouragement, Derek for steering thoughtful dialogues, Eric for inspiring us through his resilience and trust, our young medical students for infusing boundless energy and innovation, and the community for your genuine support. It is because you walk alongside us that the vision of "Human-Centred Care and Smart Innovation" continues to take root and flourish.
HKU Stroke will continue to collaborate across disciplines—connecting technology with empathy—to illuminate the path of recovery for stroke families and build a healthier community together!
