EDINBURG, Texas – In the United States, headaches remain a common health concern, affecting approximately one in six Americans. Migraines, a type of headache, are the second leading cause of years lived with disability nationwide. In the Rio Grande Valley, limited availability of headache specialists, combined with a lack of resources for diagnosis and management, contributes to underdiagnosis and undertreatment of this important pathology. In these cases, primary care providers play a critical role in recognizing symptoms, initiating treatment, and connecting patients with specialized care when needed.
To help address these challenges and equip clinicians with the latest evidence-based resources, the DHR Health Continuing Medical Education Department will host the Headache Symposium on Saturday, March 28, at the Edinburg Conference Center at Renaissance, located at 118 Paseo del Prado. The symposium will run from 7:45 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. and is open to a wide range of healthcare professionals, including physicians, advanced practice providers, nurses, allied health professionals, medical residents, as well as medical and nursing students. Pre-registration is strongly encouraged.
