General Norman Schwarzkopf’s insights on leadership in his autobiography “It Doesn’t Take a Hero” are legendary. The one shared speaks to the values of Independence Day to defend the freedoms and principles outlined in the Declaration of Independence. Happy 250th! – at Harlingen, TX
“It takes a hero to be one of those men who goes into battle.” Norman Schwarzkopf said it best. Honor all heroes - siempre. #MemorialDay2026

"If you’ve had any success in the past, you should take stock of that and realise that that will happen again, if you’re persistent, if you’re determined and you’re interested in science. I think it’s important to also relax a little bit. You have to be driven and you have to be determined and work hard, but I think emotionally you have to be relaxed and enjoy the process."
- 2021 medicine laureate David Julius

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!
