A disease of nerve damage, Multiple Sclerosis (MS) symptoms come from areas of the nervous system being damaged by the disease, so signs and symptoms vary. In honor of MS Awareness Month, we talk to Valley's MS specialist, Sargon Bet-Shlimon, MD, about the diagnosis of, and treatment for, multiple sclerosis.

Do you know your risk for metabolic syndrome? Sometimes written as MetS, metabolic syndrome is a common health condition that puts you at a higher risk for heart disease, stroke, and diabetes.

Metabolic syndrome is not always formally diagnosed, but there are real ways to manage your risk. Amitoj Marwaha, MD, with Valley's Cardiology Clinic, sat down with the We Are Valley Podcast to discuss what patients should know about the conditions that lead to MetS, how to prevent MetS, and why managing MetS health factors is important for preventing additional health concerns.

In this episode we reflect on what Valley's new Cancer Center will mean, not only for Valley patients, but for the whole South King County community.

Listen to an in-depth discussion with Navanshu Arora, MD, Associate Medical Director of Cancer Services, and Chermaine Wulff, Manager of Medical Oncology and Infusion Center.
