🚨 Flu cases are surging, and Influenza A (H3N2) is hitting harder this season. Symptoms can come on fast and feel more intense, but early care can make a difference.

If flu symptoms begin, reaching out to your primary care provider early is key. Antiviral medications may be recommended and are most effective when started within the first 48 hours. Your provider can help guide next steps and monitor symptoms based on your health history.

If symptoms worsen or you’re unable to reach your primary care provider, visiting urgent care can help ensure timely evaluation and treatment.

The ER should be used for severe symptoms such as a fever of 103°F or higher that doesn’t respond to medication, trouble breathing, chest pain, confusion or signs of dehydration.

Knowing when and where to seek care matters. Staying informed helps protect your family and your community this flu season. Scroll to learn what to more of watch for and when to seek care. 💙

Not all sniffles are created equal. 🤧

We broke down four of the most common over-the-counter cold and flu medications to help you find the right fit for your symptoms.

Here’s what we compared:
✅ Which symptoms they relieve best
✅ Active ingredients
✅ What each medication is best for

If you’re dealing with flu, COVID-19 or another winter illness, choosing the right level of care matters.

🤒 Urgent care = moderate symptoms like fever, cough, congestion or body aches
🚨 ER = severe symptoms like trouble breathing, chest pain, confusion or dehydration

As always, talk with your primary care provider about your sick-season plan and choosing the right medication for your symptoms. Stay safe this sick season!

What a brain surgeon does (and never does) for his own brain health… 🧠

If anyone takes brain health seriously, it’s Dr. Adesh Tandon.

In this video, he shares:
✔️ What he does consistently to protect and support his brain
❌ What he never does — even when it’s tempting
🧠 The small habits that make a big difference over time

Because protecting your brain isn’t about doing everything. It’s about doing the right things, consistently.

The first moments of 2026 were filled with joy at Danbury Hospital. 💙

On January 1, 2026, Renata and Cesar welcomed their first baby, Liam, at 6:53 a.m. Liam arrived weighing 6 pounds 9 ounces and measuring 19 1/14 inches long, marking a beautiful beginning to the new year.

Welcoming a first baby is a moment families carry with them forever, and our care teams are honored to be part of such meaningful milestones. From delivery to those first quiet moments together, it’s a privilege to support families as they begin this new chapter.

Congratulations to Renata and Cesar on their growing family and welcome to the world, Liam. ✨

2026 is the year we don’t wait. ⏳

We believe preventive care starts early and supports health through every stage of life. That means showing up for routine primary care visits, recommended screenings and ongoing conversations with trusted providers, because early care helps build a strong foundation for long-term health.

Preventive care gives us the opportunity to address small concerns sooner, stay informed about our health and keep care feeling routine rather than reactive. 🗓️

Here’s to choosing early care and prevention so we can protect our health now and have more time later in life for the people we love and the lives we want to live. 🌱

Strokes do not take a holiday, even during the holiday season.
In moments of stroke, timing and expertise still change everything. ⌛
