“Las cosas buenas tardan pero llegan”. I now rank #4 on the Whova leaderboard but as Sly & The Family Stone sang “I wanna take you higher” at The American College of Psychiatrists 2026 Annual Meeting. Adelante! - via #Whova event app

Guess who is sitting next to me on flight to Fort Myers en route to ACP? From Luquillo to Coconut Point once a coco loco always a coco loco! via Whova event app whova.com/whova-event-ap…

@DrMarkSGold @floridapsych sharing a spectacularly successful career in neurosciences of addictions/appetitive drives. He has an infectious interest in mentees. I am not a mentee but he was the first to welcome me to FL @USFHealthMed as Psychiatry Chair-what a “mensch”! @UTRGVSOM

Masterful presentation on psychotherapy training ⁦@floridapsych⁩ Fall Meeting by Dr. Donna Sudak ⁦@DrexelMedicine⁩. To say nobody does it better is an understatement. Adelantándonos! ⁦@UTRGVSOM⁩

An exceptional Trekkie hostess (cigars & hookah included) quoting Cptn Picard: "It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not a weakness. That is life." Is it Trekkie or Hmoob adage? Something football coaches & Deans have in common. ⁦@BobGammalViking⁩

"To boldly go where no one has gone before"-NOT! Best team for having fun & providing healthcare in Mars for ⁦@SpaceX⁩! As Capt. Picard said, “Make it so!” but I wonder, do they have Cuban cigars on Mars? Disfrutandonos en el RGV! ⁦⁦@EronManusov⁩ ⁦@utrgv⁩

Great meeting with HRSA site visitors-so good, we went to Juanita’s for a quick eat. Ralph Waldo Emerson said it best “Our chief want in life is somebody who will help us achieve what we can.” Todo lo que sea necesario y mucho más para nuestro pacientes. Adelantándonos! #NHHC-BH

The New Horizon HC “A” team (“A”ddictions team) doing what they do best-raising awareness of substance use disorders & the benefits of treatments. They really “pumped” the participants up & like GE will bring “good things to life”. Adelantándonos! @UTRGVSOM @Dr_Mercado1 @HRSAgov

Like Heredia’s “En Una Tempestad”, catching up with Dr. Jonathan Guajardo’s journey (like our espresso) was intense and untamed-worthy of @UTRGVSOM keynote speaker. A la soul food, the sociocultural realities flowed like truth on the rocks. Felicitaciones hermano! @AltaMedHealthS

Maternal Mental Health week is now. Depression affects 20% of women in the USA during pregnancy, the postpartum period, or both. NHHC has a system to screen for mental illness in mothers & the team to assist with care. Llámenos ya (956) 548-7400! #maternalmentalhealth @UTRGVSOM

#NewHorizon Health Center’s expansion took another step creating therapeutic opportunities for our community. Today, @Dr_Mercado1 & @utrgv learners kicked off #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth with a DBT skills group to help our clients reconnect with their lives. Adelante! @TexasCHCs

Way To Go! Promotores reach beyond the walls of @NACHC everyday to (like GE) “bring good things to life”. At New Horizon Health Center, we are #CHW PROUD - adelantándonos! @UTRGVSOM @noeg2056 @HBSciences @HCBrownsville @BTxRGV @ManusovEron @BobGammalViking @radicito @ElenaRiosMD

Nada could be finer than to welcome ‘25 with @UTRGVSOM Inaugural Dr. David Ortiz (“Lil’ Papi”) completing Fam-Med residency & Inaugural Fam-Med Chair @ManusovEron with our better halves, cafe & Inaugural Cuban cigars! We tried to get Fidel hisself to join but he was camera shy.

Compartiendo ⁦@GloriasCuisine⁩ with Jorge/Marta Maldonado celebrating life’s journey. True to St. Ignatius’ teachings “Let us work as if success depends on us alone, but with the heartfelt conviction that we are doing nothing and God everything.” Disfrutándonos!

What are friends good for? Searching for the perfect Havana rendezvous. Until then an early espresso, steeped tea, a cookie (or two), and our friendship will, like GE, "bring good things to life" @My_RGV. Mil gracias to Drs. Tsin and Garza for making the season bright!

22nd Jump St-NOT! I love crab races at this bar @IslaGrandBeach. But I love our 22nd Street team #NewHorizonHC mo’. Thx Luz, Liz, Irma, Roxanne & Brad for making work meaningful & memorable everyday. Thx to “las familias” that share them. A Thanksgiving blessing. Avanzándonos!

Celebrating across the RGV efforts at Colonias (areas along the Texas-Mexico border that lack basic living necessities like potable water, septic or sewer systems, electricity, paved roads, or safe/sanitary housing. Haganlo ya! @UTRGVSOM @UTHealthSPH #TAMUmcallen #NewHorizonHC

Felicidades to PA Garcia & her A-Team #NewHorizonHC on ⁦@alzfdn⁩ Memory Screening Day. It’s free, confidential, & comes with pan dulce. Great job done by all including our Memory Detectives (screeners) from ⁦@HBSciences⁩ Scholars. Adelantánte! ⁦@HCBrownsville⁩
