More Texans hospitalized with COVID-19, only 745 staffed ICU beds available in the State

Dr. Michael Seawell, a board-certified interventional cardiologist at DHR Health, is helping expand access to renal denervation, a minimally invasive treatment designed for patients with difficult-to-control high blood pressure.

Two years after DHR Health announced it was the first hospital south of San Antonio to successfully administer Leqembi, an FDA-approved intravenous treatment for early Alzheimer’s disease, DHR Health continues to expand access to advanced Alzheimer’s care for patients in the Rio Grande Valley being now the only facility doing amyloid PET Scans, a diagnostic test to accurately diagnose Alzheimer’s disease. DHR Health also offers Kisunla, another FDA-approved intravenous treatment for early symptomatic Alzheimer’s disease.

With the grand opening of Reserva Coffee Roasters’ newest café, the warmth and comfort of home are now just a brew away at South Texas Health System Edinburg (STHS) and STHS Children’s, helping create the perfect setting for connection, conversation and community for hospital visitors, staff and physicians.

McAllen Mayor Javier Villalobos hosted a televised discussion on lung cancer awareness with pulmonologist Juan P. Rey Mendoza and retired McAllen Police Lieutenant Joel Morales to encourage Rio Grande Valley residents to seek screening and recognize the risks of delayed diagnosis.
