Testimonials

Advances programs have been extremely well received by patients, health professionals, and diverse stakeholders, as evidenced by the following:

"This initiative provides us with a new vehicle by which we can both demonstrate our commitment to improving health and carry it out."

Former Secretary, Health and Human Services

 

"The diabetes care initiative for the Latino community of San Antonio was well-aimed to address a major health problem among our citizens. It was most effective in coordinating the efforts of many local organizations--including the local Univision television network that reaches virtually every Spanish-speaking home in the community. The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio was happy to be a partner in this program."

Francisco G. Cigarroa, MD

"The opportunity to get quality education, not just for ourselves, but also for our patients is truly unique and invaluable. This makes my job as a primary care clinician easier and improves my effectiveness, as it reinforces and supplements my communication."

"The event we cosponsored with Advances in Care on nutrition, weight management, and pre-diabetes was a tremendous success, complemented beautifully our own ongoing health education efforts, and provided valuable information and motivation for our community members. We look forward to many more collaborations."
