About the Author

A brief message to my readers about my interest in publicizing my medical experience in Community Public Health focused on chronic diseases, especially type 2 diabetes, long-term complications of diabetes and metabolic syndrome X. I have worked for more than 30 years managing and preventing the complications of type 2 diabetes that I suffer, also as a doctor and head of public health project programs in the USA for more than 14 years and in Nicaragua for more than 5 years in diabetes and complications, apart from my professional experience as a medical specialist. Due to the characteristics of the people that I work in, it is in my interest and public health to convince people to make changes in their lives to prevent diseases, control their diseases, and teach them how they can improve their knowledge of their health, their feelings, faith and hopes to live a full life.
Low and medium income families are the most affected when obtaining quality of public health services and other services that are insured in our society. When we educate and provide medical services to people we are also giving medical alternatives to have a healthy life. It is not easy to convince people who are in a state of despair and in whom their faith has been lost; in those people who can improve their quality and life expectancy of the years they will continue to live and those in whom socio-economic problems limit their access to health care. In my experience, in particular, I believe that people need to be trained in life to survive the adversities of life itself and the environment in which they live to face a chronic illness.
People respond when they participate in their interest and benefit to have a healthy and happy life. Community public health leaders are the only people who are well trained to have the ability to deal with the rights and needs of a community as well as the health teams involved in primary and direct care with the sick. They have the vision and mission of implementing, executing and working with health policies to have a healthy community. I have had the opportunity to meet and work on the health of people from different countries, cultures, thoughts, behaviors and from different social systems that make me understand the human rights process in terms of quality and life expectancy. All social and health behaviors of the human being are equal, people are born with rights and they deserve to be treated with dignity and respect. Eliminate health disparities by training people in managing their health and professionals to make changes in people's lifestyle and; Ensuring the quality of health for all people is the main point when dealing with a patient with chronic disease.
