WESLACO – As part of the two-week station-wide initiative focusing on diabetes and obesity, KRGV held a roundtable discussion with doctors, nurses, pharmacists and other health professionals.

They addressed questions about the impact diabetes and obesity have on the Rio Grande Valley. They also answered viewer-submitted questions.

If you have questions you’d like to ask a health professional, CHANNEL 5 NEWS will continue its Facebook Live Q&A sessions tomorrow at 6 p.m. in English and Spanish. You can submit questions there.
