About

Dr. Suleiman Kojan is a pioneering researcher in telestroke medicine and cross-cultural healthcare technology adoption, with a specific focus on the Middle East. His work centers on evaluating the cultural and clinical acceptance of robotic tele-stroke systems among patients, relatives, and healthcare providers in Saudi Arabia. In his most cited pilot study (2015, 11 citations), Dr. Kojan conducted a cross-sectional analysis at King Abdulaziz Medical City, demonstrating high satisfaction and acceptance of telestroke technology—a critical finding for expanding stroke care in regions with limited specialist access. His earlier 2013 study (5 citations) laid foundational insights into the cultural barriers and facilitators for robotic telemedicine in conservative societies. By bridging neurology, robotics, and cultural competency, Dr. Kojan has provided essential evidence for implementing tele-stroke networks in the Gulf region. His work highlights how patient-centered design and cultural sensitivity are vital for the success of digital health interventions, making him a key voice in global telemedicine research.
