During National Cholesterol Education Month, DHR Health cardiologist Dr. Christian Avalos at 4316 N. McColl Rd. in McAllen urges residents to check their cholesterol with a lipid panel to detect risks of heart disease and stroke. He explains that early detection gives locals time to improve eating & physical activity habits.

The city of McAllen filed civil actions against four downtown bars—Alibi, Cine El Rey, La Santa, and The Yard—for operating without a valid permit. This step follows earlier lawsuits and fines for similar violations and comes after a recent incident involving an officer in downtown.

UTRGV welcomed students today at its Edinburg and Brownsville campuses as it marks its 10th anniversary. Nearly 36,000 students, including over 7,000 freshmen, start classes and will join several Welcome Week events — with one event scheduled for Wednesday.
