👁️ November is Diabetic Eye Disease Awareness Month 👁️
Did you know that people with diabetes are more likely to develop eye conditions like diabetic retinopathy or glaucoma — often with no warning signs?
Protect your sight by taking three simple steps:
💙 Get a yearly dilated eye exam
💙 Keep blood sugar and blood pressure under control
💙 Talk with your eye doctor if your vision changes
At Animas Surgical Hospital, we’re proud to partner with local ophthalmologists who help our community see clearly and stay healthy.

🔥 Let’s Talk About Heartburn 🔥
It sneaks up after pizza night. Or maybe after that second cup of coffee. But when heartburn shows up all the time, it could be more than just spicy food — it could be GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease).
November is National GERD Awareness Month, a good reminder that digestive health matters as much as heart health or skin health. Chronic reflux can cause lasting damage to your esophagus and impact your quality of life — but it’s also treatable.
At Animas Surgical Hospital, gastroenterology specialists help patients get back to feeling comfortable again — with solutions that go beyond over-the-counter fixes.
If heartburn is part of your daily routine, it might be time for a conversation.

Living an active Durango lifestyle sometimes means pushing your limits — and that can put stress on your knees.

ACL tears often happen during skiing, biking, or sports that involve quick pivots or jumps.
Knowing the signs early (a “pop,” swelling, or instability) can make a big difference in your recovery.

If you’re sidelined with a knee injury, our orthopedic team can guide you through your next steps. https://www.animassurgical.com/find-provider/ =Orthopedics
