"I highly recommend checking out this office [Crown Point] if you're looking for a new doctor."

This testimonial, as well as the testimonial below, speaks to the quality of care you'll find at Dr. Mary Tilak and Associates in Crown Point as well as at our Munster and Schererville offices.

"After multiple searches for a new primary care doctor, I was able to find Dr. Ramos," one of our Crown Point patients shared. "I spoke with Simone, who allowed me to voice my concerns and matched me with a doctor who aligned with my needs, but also a doctor that allowed me to have my voice, allowed me to ask questions without being shut down and advocate for my own health and wellness.

"My visit with Dr. Ramos was very detailed. It was very complex because of the nature of how she read my past history and asked a lot of questions. She listened to my concerns and was very direct, and I appreciated that.

"The energy and environment and atmosphere of the front office was so welcoming and warm. I am definitely glad to be in this space."

During a time of New Year's resolutions, focusing on heart-healthy living is an excellent place to start.

For example, did you know that you can help lower your blood pressure naturally by:

- Creating a comforting nighttime routine to encourage healthy sleep
- Eating a diet rich in potassium (think bananas, leafy vegetables and sweet potatoes)

Happy New Year from all of us to all of you!

We are at a pivotal moment in healthcare—one that calls for reflection as much as action.

Across the care journey, it’s becoming clear that U.S. healthcare is losing ground in chronic disease prevention, particularly among young adults. The downstream effects on outcomes, cost, and quality of life are impossible to ignore.

In our work, we’ve come to believe that progress will come from a fundamental shift in how care is designed and led.

The goal is not more intervention—it is earlier, better, more connected care. This includes increased emphasis on patient education, with a focus on preventing chronic disease before it starts.

This thoughtful piece from Public Health Post explores why prevention of chronic disease can no longer be optional: https://publichealthpost.org/disease/a-generation-growing-up-sick/

Ready for a post-holiday health reset?

Start with simple steps, like a family walk before or after dinner or purchasing more fresh fruits and vegetables the next time you go to the grocery store.

Drink more water throughout the day, which will help keep you from becoming dehydrated. It can also help reduce the chances of overeating.

Think about how you'd like to establish a consistent routine for health in the new year and the support you'll need to reach your goals.
