GLR Networks’ Salud y Familia with Dr. Elmer Huerta kicks-off.

GLR Networks announced the start of Salud y Familia today after its affiliation and commercialization process started a few weeks back.
 
Salud y Famlia is GLR’s new health topic vignette in which Dr. Elmer Huerta answers all our listeners’ health concerns and offers advice on how to prevent the most common conditions that affect Latinos in the US in a quick and energetic way.
 
Starting today, the ninety second feature airs 3 times a day Monday to Friday, between 6 to 9 am, Noon to 3 pm and 5 to 7 pm Local Time.  Some of the markets where Salud y Familia will start airing are: Los Angeles, Miami, San Francisco, Phoenix, Sacramento, Fresno, San Diego, Washington DC, Austin and Oklahoma, among others.

For the past two decades, Dr. Elmer Huerta – first-ever Latino physician that was named President of the American Cancer Society– has been committed to improving the quality of life for Latinos by giving his listeners detailed information and advice on health issues. In 2007, Dr. Huerta joined forces with GLR Networks to host “Cita con el Doctor”, our daily one hour health-topic show that continues to provide help to Hispanic families across the nation. Dr. Huerta has also frequently been regarded as a trusted source of medical information to the Latino community in the United States, and has been interviewed by many other media entities. The Doctor is in fact a strong believer that the use of media is a great tool to educate our community.
