Thinking of Caitlyn and her family

It is with deep sadness that the New Castle County Division of Police announces the passing of Detective Christopher N. Skrobot on Thursday, February 5, 2026

Detective Christopher Skrobot began his distinguished career with the New Castle County Police Department on January 19, 2016, as a member of the 42nd Recruit Class. Following his graduation from the Police Academy, he was assigned to B-Squad in the Patrol Division, where he quickly earned a reputation as a dedicated Officer who led by example, consistently demonstrating professionalism, integrity, and a strong commitment to the community.

In October 2020, after completing the rigorous Police Motorcycle Operators Course, he became a certified member of the New Castle County Police Motorcycle Unit, where he proudly rode a motorcycle for escorts, parades, and special events.

In December 2020, Detective Skrobot was transferred to the Evidence Detective Unit, where he made an immediate impact and quickly established himself as a thorough, meticulous investigator, a role he held for the remainder of his career.

Detective Skrobot was also a dedicated volunteer with the Claymont Fire Company, committing himself to public service, a commitment that remained at the heart of his career.

In April 2024, Chris was diagnosed with Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS), a form of blood cancer. Despite this challenge, he continued to serve his community and support his family with courage and dedication.

Our deepest condolences go out to the family and friends of Detective Christopher Skrobot during this difficult time. His dedication to serving others will always be remembered by those who had the honor of working alongside him. He leaves behind a lasting legacy of service, integrity, and commitment to his community.

Our favorite part of this review is definitely that the patient is pain free, but

…this part is pretty great too:

“You feel like a part of their family when you enter the front door. I will actually miss starting my days with them. I am now pain free and have a much improved range of motion with my arm and shoulder.”

Come see the difference and become part of our PT family!

Are you suffering from shoulder pain?

You are not alone. Shoulder pain is one of the most common regional pain syndromes. Luckily, our physical therapist team can help.

In Delaware with direct access, you can seek physical therapy without a doctor’s note. This eliminates the wait time and other requirements associate with seeking physical therapy. Less hassle, and more time getting your shoulder back to feeling better.

“This is the best place to get your knee done,” per HPT’s newest discharged patient John

We get to spend a lot of time with our patients throughout their treatment.

Often times this results in getting to know them personally. It’s hard to say goodbye at the end of their treatment, but getting discharged also means they are better and ready to get back to what they love doing.

Best of luck to our patient, John. Come back and visit!
