Dear Fellow Midlanders, Hello! My name is Kathryn Lagus. I am an APRN at Midland Memorial Hospital. My family and I moved to Midland in the summer of 2022, and have since fallen in love with your town. Not long after the move, I was given what was truly a life-changing invitation to develop a palliative care program for Midland Health. I was ecstatic, and I did not even know how much better it was about to get. With deep thanks and appreciation to my family, who have allowed long days, late nights, many...

During the month of April, we take time to raise awareness of the life-saving impact of organ and tissue donation and to recognize individuals affected by donation – whether through the act of giving or receiving the gift of life. Many misconceptions about organ and tissue donation and the procurement process can create barriers to finding suitable donors. Every day in the U.S. an average of 17 people die because there aren’t enough donor organs. To promote a better understanding of how donation w...

Wellness means something different to everyone. Health and wellness are entirely tailored to each individual, and everyone is at a different stage in their health journey. Wellness and health aren't just one aspect of your lifestyle, but a combination of many ways of living to feel and be at your best. Some individuals may benefit from and enjoy daily walks, while others may benefit from strength training or yoga. No matter what stage of wellness you're in, it's never too early or too late to explore ne...

When Lynda Sanchez first arrived in Texas, fresh from the cool climate of Edmonton, Alberta, she stepped into a world unlike anything she’d ever known. Enveloped by the blazing sun and the rugged charm of West Texas, she wasn’t sure what to expect. Little did she know; the land was filled with more than warmth in temperature—it brimmed with kindness, chivalry, and an unparalleled sense of community. Lynda’s arrival at the Midland airport 32 years ago could have been unremarkable, just another stop on he...

MRI Safety Week is July 21-27, and helps us all recognize the safety precautions that come with using this imaging technology. The most important thing to remember about Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is that the magnet is always on! Even when the lights are turned off and there are no patients in the room, the MRI scanner is always on 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Magnetic field strengths used in an MRI can be 15,000 Gauss (G) or 1.5Tesla (T) to 30,000 Gauss (G) or 3Tesla (T) for MRI Scanners in a ...

As stated in last week’s article, the definition for awareness is concern about and well-informed interest in a particular situation or development. It was also discussed that our mission here at The Breast Center is to create well-informed patients along with a well-informed community. Last week we discussed one myth that needed to be overcome, “I don’t have to worry, I don’t have any family history of breast cancer”. We addressed that 3 out of 4 women who are diagnosed with breast c...

Here we are……entering October. Pink ribbons everywhere!!! Ball games, social events, church gatherings, everyone is focused on those who are going through breast cancer or who have won the fight and are now called a survivor after a diagnosis of breast cancer. And rightfully so, anyone who has ever had to hear those words “you have cancer” certainly deserves our support. They call it breast cancer awareness, but are we creating a true awareness along with highlighting those who are either ...

Even though there are conflicting recommendations about when a woman should start having a mammogram, at the Breast Center at Midland Health, we continue to follow the American College of Radiology’s recommendation of a yearly mammogram at the age of 40. But is the age of 40 when a woman should start thinking about breast health? A young woman should start doing monthly breast self-exams at the age of 20. This is to help train her brain what her normal tissue feels like and to help a young lady d...

Food as medicine prioritizes food and diet in an individual's health plan, with the goal of either preventing, reducing symptoms of, or reversing disease processes. “You are what you eat.” “An apple a day keeps the doctor away.” “The greatest wealth is health.” “Let food be thy medicine, thy medicine shall be thy food.” These are all sayings we are familiar with. Health care professionals worldwide recognize the impact one’s diet plays in an individual’s health. The world is facing a global epidemic of ...

One of the most important nutritional recommendations for overall health is taking an adequate amount of daily dietary fiber. You might be surprised to know that 97% of Americans do not get the minimum daily fiber requirements in their diet. We are a “fiber deficient” population. The average American adult eats 10-15 grams of fiber, which is less than half the daily requirement. If we could get Americans to just eat the minimum recommended daily intake of fiber-containing foods, we could save our countr...

Respiratory therapy … not always the first thought in your mind when considering a health care profession. The fact is, you may not even know what a respiratory therapist (RT) does. Although the COVID pandemic has shed much needed light on our profession, I don’t believe the general public knows us like we would like. The pandemic has also shown us that we need to grow the number of RT’s in the United States and around the world. I have been involved in the respiratory therapy field in some capaci...

February is American heart Month, and each year we are reminded to focus on our heart health. This year, instead of merely managing our heart disease, let us focus on how to prevent, treat and reverse it. Yes, I am talking about reversing heart disease. It is not new information; we have known about this for about 40 years, but it has somehow not trickled into mainstream medical practice. Midland Health, in its commitment to making Midland the healthiest community in Texas, is excited to annou...

Most people are not prepared for the end of life. With advances in life expectancy, decreasing mortality thanks to public health, sanitation and modern medicine, end-of-life issues are increasingly pushed to the back burner. Over the past hundred years, death has shifted from being viewed as a natural certainty to a catastrophic event. And despite the advances in medicine, technology and the overall health of the population, one figure has remained unchanged – human mortality remains a steady 100%. If a...

Changing our behavior is not easy. Unfortunately, when it comes to changing health behavior, we live with many fallacies that become reasons for discouragement and disappointment, ultimately affecting our self-esteem.

We now have more tools and devices at our disposal than ever that can help track our daily steps, food choices, sleep, fasting time and other activities. There is no lack of information ...

Padmaja Patel, Medical Director I n my twenty years of clinical practice, I have never been so excited to talk about a new approach in treating chronic and progressive diseases. We were taught in our medical training that type 2 diabetes is a life sentence, for the most part, it cannot be cured but can only be managed with medications. Despite major advances in technology and a variety of pharmaceutical options in managing diabetes, it remains a major public health epidemic. At present, we have mo...

I am frequently asked “Why are there so many guidelines for screening mammograms? Can’t anyone agree?” Currently there are three major organizations that recommend different guidelines for screening mammography. The American College of Radiology recommends screening at age 40 every year regardless of risk factors. The USPSTF states that women can wait until age 50 and receive a screening mammogram every other year instead of yearly, and women aged 40-49 should discuss with their doctor to determine if m...
