You don’t need symptoms to check your liver health — and you don’t need invasive tests either.

With FibroScan elastography, we can assess your liver in minutes:
✔ No needles
✔ No sedation
✔ No downtime
✔ No overnight fasting, only 3-4 hours fasting required

It’s a simple, non-invasive way to detect early signs of liver disease — especially for those at risk due to diabetes, high blood pressure, or metabolic conditions. At RGV Liver Institute, we focus on early detection and real answers — so you can take control of your health before symptoms appear.

Eat with the Earth in mind. 🌎

This Earth Day, one of the simplest ways to support the planet — and your health — is by choosing local, in-season produce.

Seasonal foods are fresher, more nutrient-dense, and often require fewer resources to grow and transport. That means less strain on the environment — and better support for your metabolic and liver health.

In the Rio Grande Valley, we have access to fresh produce all around us. Choosing what’s in season isn’t just a healthy habit —it’s a way to care for your body and your community. Because what you put on your plate matters —for your health today and long-term.

As Minority Cancer Awareness Week comes to a close, one message stands out — awareness must lead to action.

In Hispanic and Latino communities, liver cancer is rising, especially among younger adults. But many of the underlying risk factors — like obesity, diabetes, and metabolic health — can be addressed with early care.

This Spring, RGV Liver Institute is bringing advanced screening and support to Weslaco — helping our community take action earlier.

Silent doesn’t mean safe.
Fatty liver disease and metabolic conditions like
diabetes, high cholesterol, and high blood pressure
often develop without noticeable symptoms.
That’s why early awareness and screening matter.

Silencioso no significa seguro.
La enfermedad del hígado graso y condiciones
metabólicas como la diabetes, el colesterol alto y la
presión alta muchas veces se desarrollan sin síntomas
visibles.
Por eso, detectarlo a tiempo es clave.

These nutrient-rich nuts may also help the body manage fat and energy more efficiently — supporting overall wellness from the inside out.
