Hello Houston: The Commuter Cut is your connection to the heart of the Bayou City, but shorter, for our busy commuters. Every weekday, we dive deep into the stories that matter to Houstonians — from breaking local news to cultural happenings, community voices, and the everyday joys and challenges of life in our vibrant city.
In today’s edition of “The Commuter Cut,” we discuss weight loss drugs with Dr. Sarah Nadeem, an endocrinologist and Assistant Professor at Baylor College of Medicine, who also shares her thoughts on President Trump’s plan to lower their cost and what that could mean for patients.
Also, for Veterans Day, we hear from Noel Cardenas, Senior Vice President and CEO of the Memorial Hermann Pearland and Southeast Hospitals, who tells us about his more than 30 years of service in the U.S. Army, leading medical teams across the world, as well as setting up a 164-bed combat support hospital.
Plus, we also talk with Arlene Schollaert, LCSW, the Family Services Director of the faith-based nonprofit Amazing Place, who tells us more about their work empowering the lives of families dealing with the challenges of dementia and Alzheimer’s.
