It was a great experience to present at CONEXIONES in Mexico to many colleagues, sharing our real-world experience with Cladribine tablets in Hispanic patients with Multiple Sclerosis.
Real-world data matters—especially for populations underrepresented in clinical trials. Our cohort highlights effectiveness, safety, and the importance of generating evidence that reflects the patients we serve.
Proud to contribute to advancing more equitable, culturally relevant care in MS/neuroimmunology.

Andrea Torres was stepping into an important chapter of her life when symptoms linked to autoimmune encephalitis began changing her day-to-day. What started as unexplained memory loss later became seizure activity, leading Andrea and her family to seek answers and a path forward.

After consulting with physicians outside the region, Andrea was referred to specialists at DHR Health. Her care brought together a team of experts including Dr. R. Alejandro Cruz, Dr. Leonel Estofan, Dr. Juan Torres-Reveron, and Dr. Eduardo Estevis who worked together to better understand what was happening inside her brain.

At times, Andrea experienced multiple seizures in a single day. Through advanced monitoring, including a surgical EEG that allowed doctors to map seizure activity directly from the brain, the team identified the exact area responsible for her seizures.

In September 2025, Andrea underwent surgery to treat the source of her seizures and is now seizure free. She returned to work within a month of surgery and continues rebuilding her independence as her memory improves.

At DHR Health, advanced neurological care and a collaborative team of specialists make it possible for patients to receive life-changing treatment right here in the Rio Grande Valley.
