Last week the New England Journal of Medicine released a report on the risks of smoking. In addition to the diseases long known to be related to smoking, there were many others that showed a link to smoking.

Among these were renal failure, hypertensive heart disease, infections, various respiratory diseases, breast and prostate cancers.

If you would like help to quit smoking, please talk to your provider, or go to projectfilter.org. Project Filter is Idaho’s Tobacco Prevention and Control Program. Project Filter works to educate the public about the resources available to help individuals quit using tobacco. You can call 1 800 QUIT NOW to get more information. The program provides nicotine replacement (gum, lozenges, patches) and provides coaches to help you not just quit, but become a non-smoker.

I have been working with Zana for 3 years, I have never had a mental health professional care so much about my wellbeing and making sure my medications are working. If you are struggling- I highly recommend booking an appt with her.

Ashley Scott

Zana Delic is fantastic. She listens, she asks the right questions, and truly makes the appointment feel comfortable. I’d highly recommend her to anyone.

I've been seeing my psychiatrist for 6 months now and I feel like they always want to make sure I am happy and healthy.

I’m sorry for the people that can’t pay for services.... their reviews aren’t fair to Midvalley. There are state related programs that are offered for those who have no or little money. You can’t expect to get a hand out when your in crisis. There are hotlines and other resources available 24/7. With that said..... the counseling and medication management I’ve received has been great. The council given by Cathie has been excellent. She listens and suggests things to work on... but you have to put in the work and want to get better. If your willing and ready for treatment, it’s available and they do an awesome job of taking care of their patients. I’ve had to cancel several appointments and even had to cancel an appointment an hour before hand because I was at another appt and couldn’t get there in time. I explained that and they didn’t charge me for the visit. They understand life happens. Give credit where credit is due and be courteous to others with respect and you will be pleasantly surprised that it will go along ways. I recommend this place to anyone who is looking for some help.
