Behind Every Patient, a Whole Team
In recognition of November highlighting diabetes awareness, I wish to take a moment to remind everyone of the great work we do caring for patients with this disease. No doubt, most of us have seen these patients in our clinics. It is one of the most common chronic diseases in the world. According to the CDC's September 2026 National Diabetes Statistics Report, there are 40.1 million people living with diabetes in the United States, roughly 12% of the population, and an additional 115 million US adults with prediabetes, a staggering number.
