A Huge Thank You!

We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to Dr. Tascone, our dedicated Medical Director, and the amazing team on 7S — especially Kathy Heller and Reta Tucker — for their hard work in creating a walking path for our patients!

This thoughtful initiative not only encourages mobility and recovery but also features five educational boards designed to reinforce post-op diet guidelines and answer frequently asked questions.

Your commitment to patient care and education is truly appreciated!

Six years (on June 11).
Six.
It’s unreal. The first photo was right before I headed to the hospital-I had a very early arrival, so that pic was probably 4am.

Six years. And I’m doing it.
I had no idea if this would work—up until the point of my surgery, nothing worked—so my expectations were pretty low. I’m excited and thankful that this time I was ready. I was ready and I was supported. Two things that made a world of difference.

From the doctors to the office support…it’s a special bunch.
An obvious shout to my guy-Dr Tascone. The guy who made this all possible-even when I was the biggest headache on his schedule. I never, ever would be on this side of Onederland without his care.
Six years.
Here’s to a bunch more.

Medication or Surgery? Let’s Talk Weight Loss Options!
Trying to decide between weight loss medications and bariatric surgery? Both are powerful tools — the right choice depends on your unique health goals and medical history.
🔹 Medications can help curb appetite and support moderate weight loss.
🔹 Surgery typically leads to more significant and longer-lasting results — especially for those with obesity-related health conditions.
At ChristianaCare, we offer personalized care plans that may include medications, surgery, or both — guided by our expert team.

Let’s figure out what’s right for YOU.

Our patient Amanda shared her story that might resonate with others:

“I always hear people say "my only regret is that I didn't do it sooner." I won't lie, I started this program twice. The first time I got scared and quit. The second time, I went through with it. Now - my biggest regret is that I didn't do it sooner. This has been life changing. I can do things I couldn't do before. I have more confidence. My anxiety and depression are so well managed after my weight loss! If you're on the fence - make the jump! It's worth it.”
